    Gamespot has posted a great preview or Pool of Radiance. The article covers quests, classes, the mechanics of combat, and more. It also includes some eyecatching screenshots scattered throughout the pages.

    Pool of Radiance: Ruins of Myth Drannor promises to not only resurrect the gold box series of Dungeons & Dragons games but also to be the first D&D game based on the 3rd Edition Dungeons & Dragons rules. Baldur's Gate II is already the high standard for all D&D role-playing games, as well as RPGs in general. Can Pool of Radiance II follow up BioWare's effort and deliver as successful a D&D role-playing experience? Developer Stormfront Studios and publisher Redstorm (formerly SSI and a division of Ubi Soft) definitely think so.

    GameSpot has brought you several Pool of Radiance II previews in the past year, but recently we visited the offices of publisher Ubi Soft to check on the status of Pool II and see how the game has progressed so far. At this point, the team is fairly confident of a June 2001 release date. In fact, much of the game is finished, and we saw the final battle and endgame cutscene. All the movies are finished, all the quests have been completed, and at this point, what remain to be done are game balance and optimization. We won't spoil the story, but the game definitely has an epic ending.
