IGN: Risen Impressions

Piranha Bytes' Risen isn't entirely new at this point. Folks in Europe may have already played the Xbox 360 version, and any interested have likely picked up the PC version that was made available last fall, which IGN has already reviewed. For North American gamers, the wait for the Xbox 360 version is a little longer because the title is scheduled to be released at the end of February 2010. It's said to be an improved version over the one already available in European territories, and they had a chance to check it out briefly to get a sense of how it was running and how it controlled. The initial verdict? It looked pretty good.
