RETURN TO THE KINGDOM OF EHB! DUNGEON SIEGE III TO LAUNCH 27th MAY, 2011
Square Enix and Obsidian Entertainment bring classic action-RPG franchise to high-def home video game consoles for first time
London (03 February, 2011) Square Enix Ltd., the publisher of SQUARE ENIX® interactive entertainment products in Europe and other PAL territories, announced today that DUNGEON SIEGEâ„¢ III will be available from 27th May, 2011, in Europe and other PAL territories, with an exclusive Limited Edition available for pre-orders. Developed by Obsidian Entertainment, the all-new incarnation of the classic action-RPG franchise will make its debut on high-def home video game consoles. This May, players will experience the much-awaited next chapter in the DUNGEON SIEGE lore on PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system, Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft and Windows PC.
In DUNGEON SIEGE III, players assume the role of one of four legionnaires in the crumbling kingdom of Ehb, fighting for the sake of their fallen comrades. Conflict is constant and decisions have lasting consequences, allowing players to dictate the outcome of the tale. Do battle as a lone hero or fight alongside up to three friends and, thanks to robust AI, DUNGEON SIEGE III's co-op multiplayer mode allows players to seamlessly drop in and out of battle without interrupting the action or impacting the campaign.

(With DUNGEON SIEGE III we are bringing the rich world and lore of Ehb to an all new audience,) said Ned Browning, Brand Manager at Square Enix.
