The Bard’s Tale IV reaches $1.25m Kickstarter goal

The Kickstarter campaign for RPG The Bard’s Tale IV has hit its funding goal of $1.25m.

The InXile-developed title ha attracted 28,499 backers so far and still has a further 24 days to go. Funding currently sits at $1,265,132.

It’s the latest in a string of crowdfunding success for the studio, which has previously taken to Kickstarter to fund Wasteland 2 and Torment: Tides of Numenera.

“On the 30th anniversary of the original, it’s so exciting to know we’ll be making a long-awaited true dungeon crawl sequel," said InXile CEO Brian Fargo.

“Once again the support of our fans has blown us away, and we will put all our effort into making this the RPG they want and deserve, just as we did with Wasteland 2 and are doing with Torment: Tides of Numenera. Our fans prove once again that the classic single player cRPG genre is far from being dead, long live the RPG!”
