Risen 2: Dark Waters Leviathan Profile

The latest update to hit Deep Silver and Piranha Bytes’ Risen 2: Dark Waters website describes the Leviathan, a “beast of terror” that’s a mix of various creatures that inhabit the deepest reaches of the ocean. Check out the description that goes with the brutish animation:

There are a number of legends and myths that surround the sea monster known as the Leviathan.

In many cases, the sailors and fishermen who encounter this monster carelessly are never seen again! It is said, that the creature sleeps in dark, wet caves beneath the cliffs off the coasts of Arborea and awaits for poor souls who get lost. The Leviathan is a gigantic two-man-tall beast and was formed by dark powers. It was bred in the deepest abyss solely for the purpose of bringing evil titan storm from the sea to the land! A mixture of sand devils, huge crabs and other creatures, it crushes any intruder with his large claws or overruns his opponents with ease!

Be careful around one and don’t stand in its way!
