SpellForce fans rejoice! The next adventure to the Islands of Eo is close at hand. SpellForce 2: Dragon Storm would be brought to us by the joint efforts of JoWood Productions and Koch Media.

SpellForce 2: Dragon Storm is an RPG mixed with RTS elements. The Islands of Eo are well... islands and the only thing connecting them are the portals. The portals are weakening so the hero, a Shaikan, is sent to a dangerous mission to keep the portals alive. The Shaikan discovers the powerful ancient civilization called the Shapers. One of the last two surviving Shapers has awakened from a Sleeping Beauty sort of nap and is now considered a threat to Eo.

Along with that discovery comes the dragons. With their mixed sort of PR, dragons could either be good or evil - pretty much depends on which side you're on. Anyway, SpellForce 2: Dragon Storm boasts of more than 30 hours of gameplay, extended RPG gameplay with quests to unlock additional abilities, control the Shaikan faction on RTS gameplay, and more hero development. Additional features include: unit upgrades, summoning magic to conjure animals, hundreds of items plus players can create crafted set items, new maps for multiplayer mode, and skirmish mode at the Fortress of Decision.

SpellForce 2: Dragon Storm will hit the shelves in late March 2007. In the meanwhile, check out these screenshots.
