We have the first first footage of Two Worlds 2 in-game cinematics, which I’ve posted below. It’s… well. It made me laugh, anyway. The trailer accompanies the teaser website, and check out horn-helmet’s shield. Man!

I have a soft spot for TW1, but this did make me rofl.
report
I’ve no idea who I was supposed to root for.
report
The “WHAAT?” gets me every time. Truly ridiculous.
report
At 1:12 their bodies intersect, yet the backhand delivers. Fantastic!
report
Two Worlds 2, goo goo g’joob.
report
Your supposed to root for Oblivion
report
It has really become apparent to me that murder is taken all too lightly. In games.
Root for the orc(?) guy, the other is obscuring his face, so you know he’s dishonest.
report
What a confusing trailer.
report
wut?
report
next-gen consoles?
report
Launch title for PS4 and X720.
report
stellar. imagine that action as a movie.
report
If the game is intentionally made in this Frank Zaggarino fantasy epic manner, I’d buy it.
Knowing German devs and their weird humour (Sacred 2 RAWK CONCERT lol), I hope they actually intend to make a parody. That would save the franchise…
Hell, I can totally imagine a fun combat system that looks just like that.
report
I believe the developers of this one are actually czech or polish.
report
Topware is from Poland AFAIK (but with some German investors behind them), they’re the ones that delivered quite good Earth 21xx series.
report
Reality Pump and Topware are both Polish, I think.
report
Topware was German but went into bankrupcy in 2001. It had offices all over Europe.
The Polish subsidary was saved and is “Reality Pump” today.
report
What just happened? I’m so confused.
report
What the… *shplonk* Gaaa!
report
*stab* hoooooarrh
report
That was absolutely terrible, put some effort in next time… PLEASE!
report
The trailer is like a Lynch movie. Or maybe just something made by a drunk trainee.
What is the link between the escape and the fight ? There is no sense at all.
Or maybe, this time, players will incarnate some kind of minion, forced to obey to a red hood master.
report
That was fucking brilliant!
report
Here I thought silly helmet design was a thing of the past thx to Peter Jackson. In movies they never fit and almost always look silly, like in this trailer. Why guard only half the face, leaving the jaw vulnerable? Not to mention the fucking horns.
report
Lots of period helmets leave the jaw unprotected, especially if you were throwaway troops. It is probably so weird looking because it is ALMOST there. It does look like it’s missing an inch of material.
report
This is the Dragon Age of 2010. Really.
report
The first game was so awful I don’t think it matters how good this one is, I’m afraid of even touching a bargepole that’s touched it (with a bargepole I might add).
The first game is up there with worst voice acted games ever, worst balance ever, worst storyline ever and worst (rpg) gameplay ever.
report
Um. All I can think of saying is: ‘Why?’
report
I wouldn’t have dared to release something like this… Wow, that was shit.
report
Gotta love that backhand. Also, when exactly do you see horn-helmets shield?
report
The shield is on the homepage which is linked in the news. I have to say, this one is really hilarious, just like the trailer. Watch it for a few moments, you will see :)
report
Need more meat
report
Lol at the comical and incongruous slap sound.
report
This is what happens when you hire a a Mexican soap opera director to direct your game trailer
report
no, if it was a Mexican soap opera an appropiate music would tell us who are the bad guys
report
“It’s just a flesh wound.”
report
haha, I was thinking the exact same thing at the end there.
report
There’s nothing wrong with that video that a writer, a director, a character design artist, a couple of experienced animators and the Delete key couldn’t fix.
report
Yeah, it was amateurishly done, but a lot of promotional material is in this industry, except for big releases with a massive marketing budget. 5 years ago we would probably all ogle and drool at something like this.
“Next-gen consoles” made me chuckle though. PS4 launch game then?
report
after the terrible first game. Terrible AI, terrible balance, terrible voice acting, but i can live with bad voice acting.
I definately wont be giving this one a try.
report
In order to get your RPS embedded videos to play I have to:
1. Press play
2. Click HD
3. Press pause
4. Press play again
report
You are not alone.
report
What about the back-handed bitch slap!? Isn’t that worth something?! ROFL!
report
Good to see that the atrocious blood effects are back, as is the generally confusing nature of the game.
As a side note, I like the retro-style studio logo in the intro.
report
Can some one explain what the hell is going on?
report
At some point a focus group identified hot ninjas, big helmets and bitch slaps as the three key things missing from the first Two Worlds.
report
It seems that (the movie version of) Sauron sent a Clockwork Deer to find a prisoner who escaped a dungeon with the help of a (totally original) Elf with a bow, and a probably-Dwarf. The Clockwork Deer meet (and bitch slap) an intangible Orc with clown makeup, who manage to kill the Deer off screen.
The Aristocrat!
report
I could totally credit the focus group story as true…
report
I can’t stop looking at that shield.
It looks so happy to have vomited bats all over.
report
The shield is far, far more amazing than I could have imagined.
report
Ok then. Hope it brings us more video like .
report
I think the running soldier dude summed it up nicely:
"My lord, something happened!"
report
Um. Ropey combat and giant horns… O… K…
report
two worlds one cup
report
Imagine the size of the cup!
report
LOL.
report
Forget the happy bat shield. How’s he holding that mace without a thumb?
report
Watched the backhand bit again and again. *FWACK*
I don’t know if it’s the weird homoerotic embrace beforehand, or the sound effect, or the way his sword clips through the guy’s torso, or some unholy combination thereof, but it’s gold.
If the whole game is this shlockily hilarious I might just have to pick this one up.
report
I hope the second game also deals with the infection of The Taint.
report
This looks gloriously silly. Two Worlds had the goofiest dialogue I have ever heard,and I can’t play without cackling with laughter and annoying people for days after shrieking “The Taint!” This appears to be more of the same
report
I’ve got a hunch they were trying to faithfully re-create heavy-sword fencing moves in that fight scene. The problem is that these swords don’t look heavy in the hands of these enormous fighters. Not to mention animation is clumsy (lol I’m a poet now).
report
It did have bad voice acting and stuff, but I really liked the first one. One thing of note is their robes were great. They actually looked like robes, verses the “dresses” in Dragon Age: Origins.
report
The voice acting is awesome. I should know I’m in it.
report
I’m getting most of my kicks out of the comments on this post, even if I’m a bit late to it. You guys are awesome.
