Sacred 3 – Details and gameplay video released

Sacred 3 will be coming to PC, Xbox 360, and PS3 on 22 August 2014.

Deep Silver announced the launch while revealing the fist gameplay trailer for the arcade hack ‘n slash, which shows some frenetic, colourful action.

The video introduces some of the character classes that will be available – which consist of the Seraphim, Ancarian, Khukuhru, Safiri, as well as a new character, Malakhim – and shows them in co-op action against enemy hordes. The game is said to feature drop-in/out offline (2-player) and online (4-player) co-op play, as covered in our most recent Sacred 3 article.

Sacred 3 will be available as a limited first edition for all platforms. The first edition will include the Malakhim class as well as the additional Underworld Story DLC. In Underworld, players have to forge their way to the top of a mysterious tower where they have to confront the Black Seraphim, a notorious rival from Sacred 2.
