The game is available now for Early Access for PC via Steam and GOG. An early access launch trailer was also released. Wizardry: Proving Grounds of the Mad Overlord is a full 3D remake of the first game in the Wizardry series. The entire game is available now but includes some bugs and incomplete visual elements. Additional updates and fixes are still in development and will be updated as it develops.
The game’s details:

Key Features
Dungeon Crawling, Deluxe – Craft your own party of adventurers and head into the labyrinth at the behest of the mad overlord Trebor, in search of the amulet stolen by the evil wizard Werdna.
