Hundreds of years have passed since you defeated the evil that plagued the Land of Ehb, and now... a new threat has awakened. In Dungeon Siege II, the sequel to Gas Powered Games' bestselling RPG, you will once again be called upon to wield your sword and magic to save the world from a growing abomination.

A thousand years ago, the crusaders of Azunai crossed swords with the legions of Zaramoth in the final battle of a hundred years' rebellion. The entire land trembled after Zaramoth, the tyrant god, struck his final blow through Azunai's shield. In that moment, the forces of magic were unleashed, and both armies were consumed in a brilliant cataclysm that expanded leagues across the Plain of Tears. Only a shattered and scarred terrain remained as the final testament to the First Age of Man.

And for a millennium, magic continued to disperse to the most remote corners of the world, flowing freely to anyone who wished to harness it. But the strength of magic began to wane, responding instead to the call of an ancient legacy. From the Plain of Tears, a new heir emerges, and each day his strength grows.

What will become of the Second Age of Man? The time of reckoning is near.
