Wizardry: Proving Grounds of the Mad Overlord Remake Fully Releasing in May

Digital Eclipse announced that its remake of Wizardry: Proving Grounds of the Mad Overlord will fully release on May 23, 2024. The full release of the game — which has been in Early Access on Steam and GOG.com since September 2023 — will be available on PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch.

Originally developed by Sir-Tech, Wizardry: Proving Grounds of the Mad Overlord is the first game in the first-person dungeon-crawling series and was initially released for Apple II in 1981. The remake is said to be built directly upon the game’s original code, with its original interface viewable to players. The game sees players using their own party of adventurers to journey through a labyrinth in search of an amulet stolen with the evil wizard Werdna.
