Update 1.2 to KnightShift!

TopWare Interactive makes a further update to their hit title KnightShift available. With 120 new weapons and other pieces of equipment and 10 new adversaries, which can be met from level 30 upwards, to enhance the already extensive role-playing part of the game. To quote Alexandra Constandache, CEO of TopWare, “The fan community wanted more of a challenge for the advanced players, and this is a request that we are more than happy to fulfill.”

KnightShift Update v1.1 released!

Players can now not only save multiplayer sessions, but also join in a current and running multiplayer game. This revolutionary extension of the multiplayer mode originates out of the development of Earth 2160, the next project from Reality Pump. Also on offer is a package of four new exciting maps for RPG and Skirmish, which improve the depth of gameplay and gives more room in a session for players. This update is available in English, Russian, Polish and Czech .
Here are some of the improvments:

KnightShift language mod released!

The Installation of this MOD replaces the German language edition with the English (UK publication)
Also allowing a choice between English or German subtitles. It will also upgrade the U.S. "Once upon a Knight" version with dialogs for RPG. It also update version 1.00 to version 1.01, which supports OGG audio compression. Version 1.01 is fully compatible with the 1.00 version in all multiplayer matches.
NOTE: the OGG audio compression technology used by this KnightShift MOD has been included for research purposes. This technology will be used in Earth 2160, the next big, smash episode in Reality Pump's hit series.

Hello one and all, and welcome to the weekend. My job today is easy because what has to be said this week is done by the press. Allow me to explain please.

Last week we sent out press previews of our "Competition killer", KnightShift to all the people all over the world who have something to say on websites and print media dealing with games and software in general. So, what do does the press say?.. I have chosen some quotes which I would like to pass on to you. For the full reports just follow the links.

• Starting with The Adrenaline Vault; "Knight Shift is unique", " Glib comparisons can't do justice to Knight Shift's comic uniqueness". >> www.avault.com

• Xabregamers says; "Wow" and "It certainly is a title all RPG or RTS fans should look out for. With its style, awesome graphics and concept, we believe KnightShift should become a strong reference." >> xabregamers.dgwh.com

• Just RPG also had a nice time playing and said, "KnightShift is a game to impress you with its graphics engine and thrill you with its light hearted and humorous medieval story"

"KnightShift will definitely be the game worth buying!". >> www.just-rpg.com

• WorthPlaying: "What this engine shows you today has not been seen before in a game - only in some graphic benchmarks and demos. The unique combination of RTS and RPG elements in the SP campaigns, the hardcore gamer dedicated RPG mode for Single and Multiplayer matches and the unique humour of KnightShift brings real innovation into today's gaming world."
>> www.worthplaying.com

• DUGA writes; "Excellent gameplay and an addictive RPG mode combined with beautiful graphics and amazing sound is what KnightShift stands for." "If you enjoyed playing the excellent Earth 2150, you're going to love the splendid KnightShift." >> www.duga.be

For German, French, Italian, Portuguese, Czech and more press previews please see here. That is almost enough of polishing our own ego, but what would this page be without my own comment to the Ladies and Gentlemen of the press. Some may find it a bit conceited and they may well be right. Ladies and gentlemen of the press, thank you for your comments and previews on KS, we are very pleased that you liked it. You are all absolutely right in your evaluation of our game and must be admired for your infinite wisdom and impeccable good taste.
