'King's Quest' (ALL) Ep.5 - The Good Knight Comes Dated - Screens

King's Quest re-imagines the core characters and familiar storylines of King Graham's early journeys, setting up new chapters tied to – but independent of – the original games.

Drawing from one of adventure gaming’s most acclaimed franchises, the new King’s Quest reimagines the legend of King Graham for longtime fans and new generations alike. As an aging Graham shares the lost stories of his extraordinary youth with his curious granddaughter Gwendolyn, players will get to experience firsthand all the puzzles, places and personalities of a life of daring, danger and discovery.


King’s Quest – Chapter 5: The Good Knight looks back on King Graham, now an old man even in flashbacks, preparing to go on one last adventure for the kingdom he loves. But as his health deteriorates, can Graham’s memories still be trusted?

"Watching King Graham grow up through each chapter has been surreal for our team, as we ourselves have grown as game developers and humans right beside him," said Matt Korba, President and Creative Director of The Odd Gentlemen. "It's a rare opportunity to be able to cover the lifetime of a character in one series of a video game, and as we approach the end, we are incredibly excited for players to experience the final pages of this vision of King Graham's journey.”

Sierra also plans to release a retail edition of King’s Quest: The Complete Collection, a bundle containing all five chapters of the game with a bonus playable story epilogue, for the PS4 system, Xbox One and Xbox 360 on Oct. 25. The PS4 and Xbox One retail editions of King’s Quest: The Complete Collection will contain the first four chapters on disc, plus the ability to download the remaining content for free when available. The Xbox 360 retail version contains the first chapter, with the ability to download all other content for free when available.

King’s Quest: The Complete Collection and the King’s Quest: Season Pass (a bundle containing Chapters 2-5) are available now as digital purchases through the PlayStation Store, Xbox Games Store and Steam. The game’s previous installments – King’s Quest – Chapter 1: A Knight to Remember, King’s Quest – Chapter 2: Rubble Without a Cause, King’s Quest – Chapter 3: Once Upon a Climb and King’s Quest – Chapter 4: Snow Place Like Home may also be purchased individually.
