Dungeon Siege III Release Date and Pre-Order Bonuses Announced

Square Enix has announced the release date of their upcoming action/rpg Dungeon Siege III.  In other good news, there will be no Uwe Boll movie tie-in.

The game is now set for release on May 27th in Europe and May 31st in the US of A.

The game is being developed by RPG aficionados Obsidian Entertainment on their all new Onyx engine.  We got up close and personal with DS III back at NY Comic Con – check out the footage HERE

Alas, there are also pre-order bonuses for those of you who are into that sort of thing.  Behold:

  • GameStop: Burning Band of Scorch (increased damage + fire damage), Talisman of the Grand Mage (reduced damage, automatic damage dealt to enemies within close range)
  • Steam: Dungeon Siege and Dungeon Siege II.  (Woot)
  • Amazon: Bite of Arukun (ability to poison enemies or weaken their defense)
  • Best Buy: Sacred Heart of the Legion (health increase, pushes enemies back after they attack player)
  • Walmart: Mini comic and strategy guide (Yawn)

    It astounds me the amount of people that come into my store claiming to know about all of the good games. They hold up conversations well on topics like Diablo, Champions, and others. But when I tell them about Dungeon Siege III and they’re not as excited as I am.. I cry.

    I’ve had it pre-ordered since it had a SKU in my system. I’m so excited.

    Dungeon Siege III.
    Diablo III. (Maybe…)
    Mass Effect 3.
    Uncharted 3.
    Elder Scrolls IV: Skyrim.

    Wait, what?
