GamePower has posted a new preview of Icewind Dale: Heart of Winter, looking ahead to the isometric RPG expansion pack being crafted at Black Isle Studios. The preview features the usual overview of how the story and gameplay is continued and improved upon, complete with half a dozen new screenshots. Also, as is their way, a brief Q&A with designer Josh Sawyer is included, as well as a movie clip that offers a part of the previously seen intro trailer and some new gameplay footage. Here is a quote from the Q&A that hints at what's next for Black Isle, including their LithTech 2 engine project (which they licensed early this year--story):

The majority of the Torment team is working hard on a game using Fallout's SPECIAL system in a fantasy RPG. They are building up the Lithtech 2 engine for use with the game and have been pumping out content for a while now. The Heart Of Winter team will be moving on to a classified project, and I and some other kids from assorted projects are in the pre-production stages of yet another project. So, what's next? A lot.
