An unknown power is bent on conquering the Ten-Towns. It's up to you and your band of heroes to find out what is behind this and stop them at all costs. Icewind Dale II is the sequel to the original action-oriented RPG set in the world of AD&D. Taking place a generation after the original title, you'll make use of fresh characters, new classes and kits, spells, items, interface mechanics, and special abilities.

Icewind Dale II expands upon gameplay elements found in Icewind Dale, offering players the ability to hone their combat skills and achieve even more powerful possessions, spells, and experience.
