Correction: Two Worlds II isn't a renamed Two Worlds: The Temptation
Last Friday, developer Reality Pump announced Two Worlds II, the sequel to their 2007 fantasy RPG. However, Reality Pump already had a sequel announced for the game, Two Worlds: The Temptation, that began life as an expansion pack. Now our sister site Joystiq has posted world from the developer that Two Worlds II is a totally new game and that Two Worlds: The Temptation is actually canceled.
What happened? Accoridng to Dirk Hassinger, who runs the US part of the company, Topware, after work began on Two Worlds: The Temptation, " . . . we found the technology outdated and started a new engine generation from the scratch. Now it is a real Two Worlds II with state-of-the-art technology." He admits that some ideas and story elements from Two Worlds: The Temptation might find its way into Two Worlds II but that ultimately the game is "a different title and not a simple rename."
