Electronic Arts today announced it will be bringing id Software’s Orcs & Elves game to the Nintendo DS, and that it will publish Orcs & Elves II on mobile devices. Both games are first-person fantasy RPGs.
Orcs & Elves marks one of the first games developed specifically for the mobile platform that has crossed over to another game-specific device.
For the Nintendo DS version (which is really the only one we care about), id Software has crafted an entirely new version that utilizes the Nintendo DS’ unique technology to upgrade the graphics and increase the number of levels, items and monsters. As players explore a massive Dwarven kingdom riddled with ancient treasures and enemies, they will experience a hybrid sort of gameplay that combines first-person action and fast-paced tactical RPG elements.
Both games are scheduled to be available this holiday season.
