Faith in Destiny is an expansion to the second installment in the RPG series introducing a breathtaking story-focused campaign with many original characters returning, new multiplayer modes and maps offering a deeper Spellforce experience.

Designed as a standalone extension to “SpellForce 2”, the game will pick up on the predecessor’s widely praised story set in the well-known SpellForce fantasy universe. A multitude of new features, among them new units, buildings, spells and missions have been added in order to meet the high expectations towards a SpellForce add-on. The add-on’s story revolves around a mysterious force threatening the SpellForce world Eo. Playing as a powerful hero, you will help the Shaikan forge an alliance with others in order to oppose the rising threat and end the danger that threatens entire world!

SpellForce 2 – Faith in Destiny is based on the proven SpellForce 2 engine which was already used in the previous games. This engine has now been upgraded with modern Shader effects in order to best convey the game’s atmosphere. The innovative combination of Role-Playing and Real-Time Strategy first introduced by Spellforce (2003) has held a huge fan base since its initial release and will be revitalized through the latest add-on.

Mysterious powers arise from shadow and darkness, forming a new threat to Eo, the world of SpellForce, ravaged by wars and violent intrigue. The blood of the legendary Shaikan flows through your veins – and the world’s fate is in your hands! Command powerful heroes, raise huge armies and legendary allies to support you and work together to defeat the threat of all-encompassing darkness. The burden of ancient blood rests heavy on you – honor this legacy.

Faith in Destiny has not been canceled, but further improvements & polishing are necessary. JoWooD Entertainment argues the rumors: "The official AddOn of SpellForce 2 – Faith in Destiny will be completed in due time", explains Reinhard Pollice, Producer JoWooD Entertainment. "Our highest priority is the quality of the game. The development is already in an advanced stage, but the game experience will be further enhanced in some sectors - like multiplayer stability. Due to this improvements the release of the game cannot yet be determined, we’ll go with 'when it’s done'."
