WOW! It have been a very hectic, but still a fantastic month for every Broken Sword fan.

You'll find more info about these two wonderful upcoming titles over at their sections!

When it comes to Broken Sword Zone, we have done some updates, like the mini games section and the Broken Sword 4 section. We also got a new domain (www.brokensword4.co.uk), and we hold many thanks to Daniel over at THE BSS for that. And like that wasen't enough, too many people have visited Broken Sword Zone, so the website have been shut down some days :). Finally I made a new poll, go and check it out (at the bottom of this page). Here's the results from last months poll:

Poll #14: "Which do you think is the most important part in Broken Sword 4?"
Story (62) - 68%
Graphics (12) - 13%
Music (2) - 2%
Characters (15) - 16%
Total votes: 91

I'm not too surprised the story alternative won, since that always have been Broken Swords strongest point!

And like that wasen't enough, THQ have also posted a teaser website, with a small trailer which you can check out here! If you want to have a nice wallpaper, click on the skulls eyes!
Here are some other new information about the game (taken directly from THQ's press release, which you can view here:

"In Broken Sword: The Angel of Death, gamers once again take the role of unwitting hero George Stobbart as he investigates dark secrets from a long-forgotten history. Stobbart falls in love with the mysterious and beautiful Anna Maria. Her untimely and mysterious disappearance draws him into a desperate race against time to find an ancient artifact capable of immense destruction.
