Hot off the press and just announced, OtherSide Entertainment have now begun their Kickstarter campaign for 'Underworld Ascendant'; an overhauled, modernised sequel to the all time legendary RPG games 'Ultima Underworld' & 'Ultima Underworld 2'. The developers are aiming for a $600,000 goal and have mentioned the sequel will have more modern visuals and a user interface to take advantage of today's powerful PC's.It's incredible to think that Ultima Underworld was first released in 1992 and used new ideas such as texture mapping in a 3D world.
