Those of you entrenched in the Source mod community may recall Age of Chivalry, a Half-Life 2 mod set in medieval times. It gained a following, and now developer Team Chivalry has announced a new project: Chivalry: Battle for Agatha. This time around, however, Team Chivalry is ditching Source and going with Epic's Unreal Development Kit to build the latest version of its fantasy world.
Right now, there's no word on when the game will be released, but Team Chivalry is looking for alpha testers. If you're interested, check out this post on the forums.
This is the kind of game I have been waiting for. First-Person Oblivion style combat mixed in with multiplayer. This could turn out awesome as long as they dont screw it up.
I understand that by hitting the big time, they incur a responsibility to make their game as good as it can be. By switching to an inferior game engine.
