The Bard's Tale IV
You can now pick up The Bard's Tale IV: Barrows Deep via Steam, GOG, or Humble for $34.99 (USD) on the PC. Those who have been fans of the previous entries in the franchise or those looking for a new dungeon crawler and RPG should take note.
A return to the series’ roots, The Bard's Tale IV: Barrows Deep takes players back to the fantastical realm of Caith for a classic, single-player, first-person role-playing adventure rich in exploration, devious puzzles, and challenging combat. Recruit and level up a party of six renegade heroes and rise up against the dark powers that have corrupted the realm. Dive deep into dangerous, maze-like dungeons, solve challenging riddles and quests, and defeat magical beasts, creatures, and more in dynamic phase-based battles.

The vibrant, interactive world of The Bard's Tale IV: Barrows Deep is powered by Unreal Engine 4 and 3D photogrammetry, designed to capture the atmosphere and detail of Scottish architecture and geography. Players will discover an engaging storyline from acclaimed writer Nathan Long (Wasteland 2), as well as a stirring Celtic soundtrack from Ged Grimes (Simple Minds) and some of the world’s top Gaelic folk singers and musicians.

The series was first introduced to the world back in 1985 and arrives in time for the 30th anniversary of the release of The Bard's Tale III: Thief of Fate. If you want to get caught up on those classics, you should check out The Bard's Tale Trilogy.

The Bard's Tale IV: Barrows Deep is coming "in the future" to the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Mac, and Linux.
