The enhanced iPad version of classic role-playing game Baldur’s Gate, slated for release this summer, won’t cost you more than $10. Also, it will support multiplayer.
An enhanced edition of Baldur’s Gate II: Shadows of Amn is in the works for iPad later this year as well.
This is all according to Cameron Tofer, COO of developer Beamdog, who told me today in a phone interview that it would be “crazy” to charge more than $10 for the 1998 PC game.
“Baldurs Gate is a pretty big game and we’re not cutting it down to size,” Tofer said. “There’s a boatload of content there, 80+ hours. But past ten dollars doesn’t make sense.”
We’ll have more on the future of Baldur’s Gate, including details on how the upcoming port will take advantage of the iPad’s touchscreen interface, tomorrow morning.
