Ring: The Legend of the Nibelungen is an unreleased Dreamcast game, ported from the PC. Developed by Arxel Tribe and produced by Cryo Interactive Entertainment, it is a pseudo-3D adventure game relying mainly on pre-rendered settings, reminiscent in style to Cryo's own Atlantis: The Lost Tales.
Success released the original PC version in Japan as Nibelungen no Yubiwa (ニーベルングの指輪) and they intended to release it too for the Japanese Dreamcast [5], but that failed to materialize. No trace of a western release of the cancelled Dreamcast version was ever officially announced until an English language prototype of the Dreamcast version, dated 1999-09-09, was found and leaked. It seems to be fairly late in development, though only the first two discs (of three) have been preserved so far.
