Deep Silver today announced that the next installment of the Sacred series, Sacred 3, will release on consoles and PC this summer. According to its press release, Sacred 3 takes players back into the fantasy realms of Ancaria, where they will need to band together in the hope of vanquishing the deadly tides of evil.
Remy van Leeuwen, Brand Manager of Deep Silver, said:
“The paramount development goal for Sacred 3 has been to create a seamless online and offline co-op experience. By creating a game built around the central concept of co-op gameplay, we’re expanding the series to new audiences without compromising the rich lore and fantasy of the Sacred universe.”
Sacred 3 aims to feature classic arcade Hack ‘n’ Slash action centered around drop in, drop out cooperative multiplayer for both offline (2 players) and online (4 players) play.
The game will bring back fan-favourite characters such as the Seraphim, Ancarian, Khukuhru and the Safiri, as well as introduces a new character, Malakhim.
Each character class features its own unique skills and weapons which can be upgraded to match the player’s very own combat style. As they master the art of war, players will fight their way through enemy hordes and try to outshine their fellow companions on their way to become the greatest hero of all.
The inclusion of mission stats and online leaderboards will continue to drive competition both locally and online. Victory Is Ours. Glory is Mine.
Enjoy!

I hated Sacred 2 but loved the first one.
I never played this game but if it plays like Path of Exile (to me as of now the best ARPG) or Titan Quest with an open world…I´m in.
Saw some game-plays of Sacred 2 and seems like it is, and really big as far as I can tell.
PS: I can take suggestions of good ones but not so old ones please.
So does this game have single player or it’s only multiplayer and coop of two players?
By reading this article I managed to find this: “Sacred 3 aims to feature classic arcade Hack ‘n’ Slash action centered around drop in, drop out cooperative multiplayer for both offline (2 players) and online (4 players) play.”
PS: Hope more people actually read the articles before asking questions.
I read the article. And I saw what you wrote. But what does “offline (2 players)” mean? Could I play it as 1 player without coop with someone else?
PS: Really funny.
“2 players offline” means that you can play with a friend at home in your PC/console.
And “4 player coop online” is like any other coop game out there with 4 players online.
You can play alone if you wish offline or with a friend or family member.
As simple as it sounds. 😉
PS: The “PS part” was not only for you but for more people who never read articles asking for info who is already there. Don´t take it in the wrong way. All good mate. 😀
Who is the developer?
