Obsidian is keeping themselves especially busy of late, what with Alpha Protocol, Fallout: New Vegas, and now Dungeon Siege 3 all in development or just released.

With input from original Dungeon Siege developer Gas Powered Games, Obsidian is working on the title for PC, PS3 and Xbox 360. 

“It has been a great pleasure to collaborate with Obsidian,” GPG founder and Dungeon Siege designer Chris Taylor said in the announcement. “They are a very talented developer who really knows what it takes to build a deep and engaging RPG experience, and I can’t think of a better group to continue the Dungeon Siege series.”

Taylor said in 2008 that if he were making Dungeon Siege 3, he would leave out companion characters altogether. This will not be the case, and Obsidian has promised characters with “unique personalities, abilities and views on the world around them.”

No release date has been confirmed as yet.
