Spelljammer, Fantasy Empires, Classics from the Dragonlance Universe, and More Dungeons & Dragons Titles Return to PC for the First Time in 20 Years

London (March 15, 2023) — It's time to unearth some gems from the past as today, SNEG —  boutique publisher of long-lost titles — is pleased to announce the return of eight long dormant Dungeons & Dragons games. The list features many of the first D&D video games, including Spelljammer: Pirates of Realmspace, Fantasy Empires, DragonStrike, and Deathkeep. Additionally, Heroes of the Lance, Dragons of Flame, War of the Lance, and Shadow Sorcerer will be made available in the Silver Box Classic Bundle. These titles are returning to #pc, some for the first time in over 25 years, and will be available on #gog and #steam later this March.
 
Originally released in the '80s and '90s, many were able to enjoy these titles on classic gaming hardware including 3DO, Amiga, Atari ST, Commodore 64, NES, Apple II and even the SEGA Master System. Now, SNEG is excited to help players relive those memories on modern PCs.
 
"I'm an old D&D fan and It was always my dream to bring back all its video game classics," said Oleg Klapovskiy, Director at SNEG. "Back in 2015, I started making that dream come true by bringing the Gold Box titles back to gamers, and now we are continuing with this dream by bringing back another portion of classics to both #gog and #steam."
