SOE announces Untold Legends for PS3

Right after Sony ended the speculation surrounding the PS3's launch date, they announced that Untold Legends: Dark Kingdom would be among the expected launch titles. Will it be a Halo 3 killer? Unlikely, but it's nice to see a good old fashioned hack-and-slash RPG headed to a next gen platform. No additional Norrath sequels have been announced, and the Dark Alliance series was left hanging after the unfortunate demise of Black Isle Studios.

So what enhancements will PS3 owners have to look forward to in this iteration of Legends? The game will feature 7.1 audio, online multiplayer, and downloadable content via Sony's new online service. As an added bonus, sci-fi scribe Keith Baker (D&D, Star Wars novels) will pen the Dark Kingdom story.
