Space Siege Announced

Sega and Gas Powered Games, the developer of the popular Dungeon Siege RPG, have announced that they will be releasing Space Siege in 2008 for PC.

Space Siege will be a sci-fi RPG taking place after earth is devastated from an alien attack. After the attack humanity is spread across the galaxy, with many humans living in colony ships. It will follow the story of Seth Walker, a cybernetics engineer, as he attempts to save the human race. It will include cybernetic augmentations into its storyline, leaving gamers with the ability to enhance Seth and choose how much of him should remain human.

Sega of America marketing VP Scott A. Steinberg was quoted as saying "Space Siege promises to be a compelling and innovative successor to the very popular Dungeon Siege franchise."

Let's hope so.

Some of these elements remind me of the upcoming Too Human, which also involves robotics and cybernetic upgrades. Stay tuned for more news of Space Siege as it becomes available.
