Joystiq has an explanation that the recently announced Two Worlds II is not actually a reworking of Two Worlds: Temptation, the add-on that was subsequently called a sequel. According to Zuxxez PR director Joerg Schindler Temptation was axed because it was outdated: "The Temptation had been canceled due to technical outdating [sic]. We use a complete new engine for Two Worlds II."
