SOME SECRETS ARE WORTH DYING FOR
Feel the cold touch of death in this adventure for the world’s greatest roleplaying game.

In Icewind Dale, adventure is a dish best served cold.

Beneath the unyielding night sky, you stand before a towering glacier and recite an ancient rhyme, causing a crack to form in the great wall of ice. Beyond this yawning fissure, the Caves of Hunger await. And past this icy dungeon is a secret so old and terrifying that few dare speak of it. The mad wizards of the Arcane Brotherhood long to possess that which the god of winter’s wrath has so coldly preserved—as do you! What fantastic secrets and treasures are entombed in the sunless heart of the glacier, and what will their discovery mean for the denizens of Icewind Dale? Can you save Ten-Towns from the Frostmaiden’s everlasting night?

Icewind Dale: Rime of the Frostmaiden is a tale of dark terror that revisits the forlorn, flickering candlelights of civilization known as Ten-Towns and sheds light on the many bone-chilling locations that surround these frontier settlements.

 

 

The story revolves around Auril the Frostmaiden has withdrawn to this cold corner to live among the mortals as she hides from the gods trying to kill her.  As the divine embodiment of winter’s fury, she’s cast a spell over the realm and plunged it into a perpetual, dark winter.  Rime of the Frostmaiden revisits the frontier settlements known as Ten-Towns as players try to stay a step ahead of the mad wizards of the Arcane Brotherhood.

 

An alternate cover featuring a distinct design and soft-touch finish that will be available exclusively in game stores. Icewind Dale: Rime of the Frostmaiden will retail for $49.95 at launch.
