Ubisoft announces the final chapter in the Myst series; adventure game will pick up where original Myst left off.
Ubisoft today announced Myst V: End of Ages will be coming to PCs and Macs this fall. The game is being developed by Spokane-based Cyan Worlds, the developer of the first two chapters in the series, the ground-breaking Myst and Riven: The Sequel to Myst. Cyan Worlds also announced that Myst V will be the final chapter in the Myst saga, thus closing the book on the franchise's story.


The title continues the story and gameplay of the original Myst by giving gamers the chance to restore the lost empire of the D'ni. Those who have played the Myst series will be familiar with the gameplay where players must navigate a 3D world, explore a fully interactive environment, and solve brainteasers.

"Myst V: End of Ages follows the Myst storyline to its conclusion, closing the book on the Ages of Myst," said Rand Miller, CEO of Cyan Worlds. "To complete this circle of Myst, we've embraced the idea of something old and something new. 'New' in regard to pushing forward in areas of interface and technology. And 'old' [in] getting back to the simple exploration that made Myst so magical."

    Dare I say, "Freakin' finally!"?

    I could never beat the first one that I played occasionally at my grandma's. Ended getting an hour or so through Ages of Uru I believe it was called. Got too frustrated to continue, though it did seem like it was easier than Myst I...

    I need to get out more. I didn't even realize that there was a III and a IV... :rolleyes:

    Riven is the best one so far. Uru was so so, and I haven't gotten 4 yet

    Do these statements seem incongruous to anyone else? ;D

    Well considering the source I wasn't going to mention that.
    III was so-so. Didn't even try IV.
    Loved Riven(II).
    This is what my wife will get for Christmas next year.
    We play it together with a note pad handy. It is fun.

    I love all of them. Myst IV is great too, with an interesting story and amazing graphics. I must admit though that my favorite was Myst III: Exile, because the puzzles were more fun to solve. I can't wait for Myst V, but I'll be sad when it'll be over...
