Two Worlds II:Development

Development of Two Worlds II began as early as 2005 as a Two Worlds expansion titled Two Worlds: The Temptation. The Temptation quickly grew much larger than originally intended and became a full-fledged sequel, first being referred to as such on November 28, 2007, just six and a half months after the release of Two Worlds. Developing it as a sequel enabled the developers to expand the narrative further, and in 2009 the project was overhauled and a more sophisticated engine titled GRACE™ was created to develop the game. Sometime between March 2009 and July 2009, the title "The Temptation" was dropped in favor of titling it Two Worlds II, due to the devs feeling that The Temptation would always be associated with expansion.

Delays

It was originally planned for a release in "spring 2010", later pushed back to August 8, 2010, but was later pushed back to September 14, 2010, and then October 5, 2010. In an E3 2010 Q&A, Jake DiGennaro said the game was planned to be released in the fall. It was eventually released on November 12, 2010.
