The modern remake of seminal RPG Wizardry is finished and out now


Digital Eclipse’s updated port and remake of classic 1981 dungeon-crawler Wizardry has released on Steam, letting you experience a piece of real RPG history with much more modern graphics and a streamlined presentation. In Wizardry you make a party or two of monster-battling heroes and pilot them in first person through a dungeon, fighting monsters and gathering treasure to find victory.

Wizardry is an unabashedly old school game, one where surprise party wipes, vicious traps, and unwinnable encnounters are the norm. For all that, though, it’s a true updated time capsule of a game from that era, when the RPG was a pretty new idea and nobody was quite sure how everything should work yet. It’s very much about resource and risk management over being big, explosive heroes.
