A place of dread

24 Feb

Funcom has released a teaser from the Rise of the Godslayer, showing off a zone I designed – the Khitain desert of Kara Korum.

There’s also a preview of Kara Korum on IGN, if you’re interested.

The top sellers of 2008

18 Jan

Swamp of the Dead in Age of Conan
IGN has published a list of the top selling PC games of 2008. The list is based on data from a bunch of US retail stores (no digital distribution). A few comments.

  • First, Age of Conan is 4th on the list. Woohoo! Certainly not bad.
  • It’s obvious how the PC platform is dominated by MMORPG’s these days. 7 titles out of 20 are MMORPG’s (although 5 of those are different versions of World of Warcraft and its expansions, another sign of their incredible success).
  • Some of my favorite games of the year sold very well (Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, Fallout 3, Left 4 Dead).
  • It’s still possible for small, unknown developers to make hit games – Sins of a Solar Empire by Ironclad Games is on the 14th place, and that’s ignoring its digital downloads.

Age of Conan has launched

26 May

We’ve launched Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures!

I’ve spent almost three and a half years as a designer on Conan, and it is with joy and pride I see our depiction of Hyboria leave the Oslo offices to meet the world.

Here is our launch trailer.
