The three new islands, Avalon (Albion), HyBrasil (Hibernia) and Aegir (Midgard), are all wonderfully crafted realms full of danger, quests and realm combat.

The mippy-mappy goodness of the new graphics system makes you just shake your head in awe at some of the landscapes and creatures. [Apr 2003, p.71]

If you have patience and want a truly incredible experience with lots of high level content and desire to engage in massive realm battles, you should spend that little extra and invest in the total package.

Game Over Online

Existing Camelot fans and MMORPG players would be smart to take up on Mythic's latest quid pro quo. Time spent versus satisfaction - you're undoubtedly getting the better end of the deal.

The updates to the user interface make controlling characters even easier, and the overall improvements in design make it a wonderful addition for all players in the Dark Age of Camelot universe.

Da Gameboyz

If you are looking for a very rich, fantasy-themed MMO with a very large community behind it and an enjoyable PvP system, this is definitely the game for you. If you are looking for twitchy instant gratification, carry on... There is nothing to see here.

PC Gamer

There's a good wedge of new content and some polished visuals in the Shrouded Isles package, but what's missing is any sort of improvement to the game's Realm-vs.-Realm premise. [Mar 2003, p.108]

GameSpot

DAoC is still one of the best online role-playing games on the market, and by extension, one of the best such games to date. And Shrouded Isles succeeds at making it even bigger and better.

No one should play "DAOC" without Shrouded Isles. [Apr 2003, p.106]

Bub B. gave it a 10:
Awesome.

Atchison L. gave it a 9:
I gave it a nine based upon Morrowind Elderscrolls III being the best graphics and game play as a 10 (the best to date) To bad Morrowind is not internet multiplayer. If I eliminate Morrowind then DOaC SI. is a 10 or 11

Ben gave it a 10:
W00t w00t w00t w00t BUY IT NOW.
