Independent developer and publisher Spiderweb Software has announced that it will be releasing a follow-up to its 2011 title Avernum: Escape from the Pit. Avernum 2: Crystal Souls is the second chapter of this rebooted version of the original series, which is mostly set in the volcanic pits of Avernum while a tyrannical empire controls the surface worlds. Following the events of the first game, the empire has now begun an invasion of the caves and is attempting to wipe out Avernum's inhabitants.
Avernum 2: Crystal Souls is scheduled to be released during Q4 2014 for PC and Mac, with a version for iPad planned for early 2015. Some screenshots and a trailer for the game can be viewed below.
