King's Field IV, released in North America as King's Field: The Ancient City, is a medieval-themed first-person role-playing video game produced by FromSoftware for the PlayStation 2 in Template:Vgy. It is the fourth game in the King's Field series. Agetec published the North America release in Template:Vgy, while Metro 3D published the Europe release in Template:Vgy.

Plot

An accursed idol responsible for the destruction of an ancient race has resurfaced to wreak havoc once again among the kingdoms of man. You must return the idol to the Ancient City to break its curse, but monsters of unspeakable horror haunt the ruins. There is a palpable fear in the air of the Ancient City—even the monsters themselves fear the evil that has returned.

Treasures beyond imagination await the warrior bold enough to attempt the journey, strong enough to face the minions of death, and wise enough to follow the path that leads to the essence of light. Use your sword arm well to rid the land of a potent curse. Be aware that should the sword fail, you have the magical arts to serve you in your quest. Learn the proper time and place for each or you too shall be counted among those lost forever.

Reception

On release, Famitsu magazine scored the game a 30 out of 40. Game Informer magazine scored the game a 6.5 out of 10.
