The development team of Shadowbane, the well-known MMORPG (Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game), recently announced on their official web site that a completely new world-sized game map is in the works. While most of the development team is busy fixing a few gameplay issues to make Shadowbane's online experience the most enjoyable, the level designers are preparing a revolutionary online battlefield that will take the title's strategy element to the limit.

Here are some of the features this new land will offer, as quoted from the Shadowbane web site:

• First of all the new world will have a new name and history. One of the Safeholds will be completely redesigned and built and will be a prominent city from the lore. The exact city will be named sometime in the future.
  
• All zones in the new world will be grouped together by terrain: grasslands will be together, large swamps, deserts, and forests will also be grouped together and spread across the two continents.
  
• The new map will contain many strategic choke points of control over various drops and resources. We expect to a lot more conflict over resource consumption in this world.
  
• One more commander discipline dropper will be added to the map.
