Witch's Wake I was a huge hit among NWN community members, with over a million downloads since its release over a year and a half ago. The remastered premium Neverwinter Nights: Witch's Wake module is now available at the BioWare Online Store, and we took a few moments to chat with the module's developer, Rob Bartel, to learn about the module's design and to see if we could pry some information from him about the future of the series.

Who are 'we'? Who made the interview?

does Bioware sell Witch Wake 2 combined with another module, equal to "Witch Wake 1" (perhaps combined with ShadowGuard 2"?

Witch's Wake 2 will likely be sold as a separate module, similar to how Kingmaker was. We may bundle it with Witch's Wake 1 and, after it's initial run, it could conceivably show up in other bundles. It's too early to really know for sure.

Do you already have the story of Witch's Wake mapped out entirely or are you going to wait and see how we all play the first two parts? I guess this form of story telling provides you with the ultimate opportunity to add in sly twists and turns to the plot.

Looking forward to playing the first part again and then then second part.

Best wishes

I have a general outline of the series down on paper but things always evolve when the proverbial rubber hits the road.

As for timelines for a WW2 release, my lips are sealed. I'm involved quite directly in all of the premium modules currently scheduled, which definitely eats into the time available for work on WW2. Hopefully I can clear my plate and focus my energies on it more directly in the coming months.

Thanks for the interest,
