- i>Obsidian Entertainment started off its life with two daunting tasks; create the sequels to two of to the veteran BioWare's biggest games (Knights of the Old Republic and Neverwinter Nights). Both were successes, and Obsidian showed just what they were capable of right out the gate. Founded by five ex-Interplay employees, they quickly hopped back onto the role-playing bandwagon after being joined by Josh Sawyer (lead designer on Icewind-Dale II) in 2005. Currently, Obsidian is working on creating an RPG set in the Aliens universe and is also designing an expansion for Neverwinter Nights 2, called Mask of the Betrayer, due out later this year.
