Neverwinter Nights has captured the minds and hearts of PC gamers worldwide with one of the most captivating Dungeons and Dragons role-playing experiences to ever grace a computer screen. Based in the Forgotten Realms, created and published by Wizards of the Coast, the Neverwinter Nights Gold Edition game gives gamers a chance to rediscover the magic, extend the experience or even explore it anew.
“At $40, the Neverwinter Nights Gold Edition game is an incredible value featuring one of best selling and most critically acclaimed role-playing games of all time in Neverwinter Nights; the best-selling first expansion pack, Neverwinter Nights: Shadows of Undrentide; and, a number of stand-alone modules previously available only as downloadable content,” said Steve Allison, vice president of marketing, Atari’s Los Angeles studio. “The Neverwinter Nights Gold Edition game is the perfect introduction to the Neverwinter Nights universe whether you’re a first time player or a veteran of the role-playing genre – gamers won’t want to miss this.”
The Neverwinter Nights Gold Edition game features all of the most compelling aspects of Neverwinter Nights gaming including an extensive 80-hour official campaign, which is also playable in multiplayer mode; the amazing Neverwinter Nights Aurora Toolset which lets players create their own adventures, and the Dungeon Master client that allows players to step into the shoes of the Dungeon Master to tell their own stories; and, most importantly, access to an absolutely thriving player community brimming with content and support.
“The Neverwinter community is one of the most compelling aspects of Neverwinter Nights. Fans who purchase the Gold Edition gain immediate access to almost 3,000 community made modules,” said Dr. Greg Zeschuk, Joint CEO, BioWare Corp. “We are constantly surprised with the quantity and quality of fan created content.

In addition, the expansion pack equips module makers with additional content for the Neverwinter Nights Aurora Toolset, the groundbreaking software included with the full game that allows players to create their own universes, quests and storylines. The toolset will be augmented with all new tile sets for creation of new environments as well as new “Wizards,” or automated guides, to help gamers build and play adventures of their own creation.
