This is the game I've been waiting for. While the original Assassin's Creed may have been short on variety, there's no denying the quality of the visuals and the immense possibilities of the openworld sandbox it presented to us. On Xbox 360, at least, it was a technological marvel that laid the foundations for a sequel that takes all the coding genius of the original and combines it with a gameplay package that exceeds expectations. While Modern Warfare 2 ranks as the multiplayer game of choice for console owners, it's Assassin's Creed II that offers the most complete package for those more enamoured with traditional single-player experience. Ubisoft Montreal has done good.

When we first heard about "Arcanum : Of Steamworks and Magick Obscura" last year expectations were high. This was to be the debut game from Troika, a company founded by veterans of Interplay who had helped design role-playing games ranging from Stonekeep and Icewind Dale to the popular post-apocalyptic Fallout series.

This weekend's preview here on EuroGamer takes a look at "Arcanum : Of Steamworks And Magick Obscura", the latest role-playing game from the brains behind the popular Fallout series. This one is set in a steampunk world that combines traditional fantasy staples such as magic and elves with steam-age technology, forming an explosive mix. For the full scoop, read our preview. And when you're done with that, why not feast your eyes on the latest screenshots of the game, fresh from publisher Sierra?

One of the more unusual looking role-playing games currently in development is "Arcanum : Of Steamworks and Magick Obscura", which (as the rather lengthy title suggests) mixes technology and magic in an off-beat steampunk setting.

The official website for "Arcanum : Of Steamworks and Magick Obscura" has now launched, featuring all the latest news, information and screenshots from the game. For those of you with an aversion to steampunk, Arcanum is the first game from Troika, a company founded by several members of the team behind the classic post-apocalyptic RPG, "Fallout". For the full story, read the press release.

We have heard a lot of bizarre excuses for a game being delayed in the past, but Vivendi Universal Interactive have just taken the biscuit by claiming that a batch of copies of their role-playing game Arcanum (which is due for release on Friday) arrived at their distributor in the back of a truck full of toxic chemicals. Now, we don't really believe them either, but the photographic evidence certainly seems to bear out their unlikely story, showing shrink-wrapped boxes marked Arcanum in front of a ramshackle pile of bright orange barrels labelled "toxic" and "harmful by inhalation and if swallowed".

The first lump of Assassin's Creed II DLC - The Battle of Forli - will be released tomorrow on Xbox Live Marketplace.
