Never heard of it.

The first Dungeon Keeper was one of my favorite games at the time. I'd used to love to release a Horned Reaper inside enemies give him a slap and watch him go berserk..

Dungeon Keeper was an awesome game! from what I played of it, i thought it was really cool how you could change the terrain. funny too.

anyway i can get the old one to run on vista? I'd even play it in a vm machine if i could.

I absolutely LOVED dungeon keeper. If EA revives the series it would make me a happy person.

Yes, there is a good shot that Dungeon Keeper is being made! There is an article on Gamespot, saying EA is bring back a lot of old franchises. Road Rash, Theme Park, Populous and Wing Commander!!

... hell yeah!!! it's about time!!! that waz so much fun... and the multiplayer potential for that game iz BIG!!!

I've played DK and DK2 several times. One of the only games I've completed several times. That says a lot about it

in Dungeon Keeper 2's video area, there was a dungeon keeper 3 intro which involved outside the world. Centuries past since then, so even former bullfrog geniuses may forgotten that. I simply wish for possession spell. I don't care the rest

"Electronic Arts may be reviving the Dungeon Keeper series in retaliation to Blizzard's upcoming sci-fi themed RTS, StarCraft II."

Is it just me, or is StarCraft II referenced as if readers have likely not heard of it?

[citation][nom]joeman42[/nom]I just want them to revive Magic Carpet. The volcano spell is still a sight to behold.[/citation]

Bullfrog were perhaps the best developers of the late 80's early 90's, rule Britannia! I too would love to see Magic Carpet remade, it was one of the first games I bought for the Sega Saturn and it gave me hours of fun.

Now don't hold your breath waiting for another Dungeon Keeper, EA have been renewing old patents left, right and centre recently - Wing Commander, Theme Park and Populous have all been renewed but that doesn't automatically translate into a reboot of those franchises.

Now if I thought EA were going to reboot those franchises it would make my year, it would be as if god of gaming has answered my prayers and is giving all of my old favourite titles a make over and reboot. So far this year it's been announced Thief 4 is in the works and work on Elite 4 has finally started. Add to that a possiable remake of Lucasarts classics of X-Wing/Tie Fighter, Aliens Vs Predator 3 (due Q1 next year) the success remake of Monkey Island and the small possibility of new Wing Commander and other classic Bullfrog titles 2009 is turning out to be a good year!

Dungeon Keeper and DKII were very good games! I loved the ability to go into 1st person perspective on any of your units to take control of them and battle with your other minions. DKIII was canceled unfortunately, so the DK series only spanned 2 games....not 3.

I hope they also make a sequel to one of the best action games ever made: Syndicate!!! The time i´ve spent playing it on Amiga!!!

Oh please be true, please be true, please be true.

This was one of the best series of games ever made.

 

[igot1forya]

Great Game! Very fun... I can still here "The gods are pleased with your sacrifice!" and "This is not a wishing well" whenever you tossed something into the sacrificial chamber.

 

[Netherscourge]

Oh man - DK was one of my all-time favorite waste-of-time games! I would dig out crazy dungeons and kill those pesky "heroes" who tried to ruin them.

Aw man - if they made a new one with a DX10 or DX11 engine, I'd be pre-ordering right now.

*crosses his fingers* I really hope they do this, Dungeon Keeper was such an amazing game.

 

[Major7up]

I never played any previous Dungeon Keeper titles but always wanted to try them. If they do decide to release a new one maybe I will have to finally give it a shot.
