[edit] Gameplay
In Untold Legends: Dark Kingdom there are three classes of fighters that the user chooses at the start of the adventure - The Warrior, who mainly uses strong melee attacks with a huge hammer, The Mage, who uses a combination of ranged magical attacks and close range strikes with his staff, and The Scout, who is the agile alternative of a warrior, landing multiple strikes in quick succession with her daggers. This selection of class is unchangeable throughout the game when playing as this character.
When leveling up, the character is given predetermined additions to all attributes, and 2 extra points that can be added freely to any of these attributes. A skill point is also rewarded, which can be put into useful techniques that are dependent on each class, relative to the level requirements to learn these skills.
[edit] Story
After serving the King loyally for years in foreign conflicts, an elite unit of knights return home to find it a changed place. Appalled by the discovery that dark magic has corrupted their kingdom and that the King now plans to use them against their own people, the knights devise a plan to assassinate the malevolent ruler. When the attempt on the King's life is foiled, the would-be assassins barely escape and are on the run from an army they once served, the assassins must survive in a kingdom they no longer recognize.
[edit] Box art
On September 8, IGN.com released the box art for the game which also happened to be the first glimpse of what box art will look like for the PS3.
