Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance II is a role-playing game, the sequel to Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance, developed by the same Black Isle. The game was released for PlayStation 2 on December 2, 2004 in the United States and for the Xbox gaming console on January 20, 2004 also in the United States.
Dark Alliance II offers two more playable characters than the original game. We now have a cast composed of Dorn Redbear, who is a human and is classed as a barbarian, which makes him good in melee but vulnerable to magic and missiles; Vhaidra Uoswiir, who is a drow and classed as a monk, with his fists as his only weapon of choice; Ysuran Auondril, a necromancer that is also an elf, making him a capable caster of spells related to death and the dead; Borador Goldhand, a dwarf classed as a rogue, with abilities like setting traps and picking pockets and Allessia Faithhammer, a human cleric who plays a backup role of supporting spell caster. Each of the characters is offered the ability to complete one quest that takes them to a heroic class, which makes them more powerful.
Yet another unlockable character joins Drizzt Do'Urden, in the form of Artemis Entreri, a human assassin that double wields the weapons Charon's Claw and Defending dagger.
The plot of the game evolves around a vampire lord and his quest to gain control of an ancient wizard den, called the Onyx Tower. The player must complete a series of quests to stop the vampire count from achieving his objective.
