Two Worlds

Press Release PROVIDED BY GAMES PRESS

Second Downloadable Content Pack Expands Antaloor Online Multiplayer Experience Even Further

SouthPeak Games has announced that Curse of Souls, the highly anticipated second set of downloadable content for Two Worlds, is now available via Xbox LIVE® Marketplace for the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft®. Curse Of Souls further expands the online multiplayer world of Antaloor with new maps and weapons and is available now via Xbox LIVE Marketplace for 600 Microsoft points.

Four new maps offer over 35 brand new quests for players to conquer together. In addition, Curse of Souls introduces players to Tharnburg, a town famous within the Two Worlds universe for having two divergent districts. The Merchant’s District offers a great variety of shops for players to browse, while the Gladiator District will let players learn new skills and test their mettle against other players in a huge player-versus-player combat ring.

“The online portion of Two Worlds has proven immensely popular with the game’s fans. Curse of Souls not only offers new places to explore for the online mode, but also gives players a new opportunity to go head-to-head and see who has developed the strongest character,” said Melanie Mroz, CEO of SouthPeak Games. “Combined with Tainted Blood, the first downloadable content pack, there are more hours of multiplayer gaming in Two Worlds and its DLC than you’d find in most single-player games.”

Curse Of Souls is available for download via Xbox LIVE Marketplace now for 600 Microsoft points.
