Risen fans, here is some good and some bad news for you today. The good news is that a new gameplay video for Risen 3: Titan Lords emerged. The bad news is that this is off-screen footage, meaning that you won’t be able to appreciate what Piranha Bytes has achieved.
Still, we believe that this is better than nothing, so go ahead and take a look at the video below.
This footage was captured during the Role-Playing Convention 2014 event.
Enjoy!

i thought risen 2 sales were pretty low.
And for good reason to be honest, the combat let it down really bad and Risen 1 was just better but i like Risen 2 world and exploration, like some of the characters as well.
Gothic, Risen combat is all about timing though, not mashing through endless monsters and enemies like MMOs and games like Dark Souls(yes it’s hard I know) and even a simple Wolf cankill you in Gothic, Risen, it’s not like Skyrim ether where you can kill Wolf’s in 2 hits. Wondering off in Gothic or Risen randomly will get you killed so you have to know your bounties, which the game gives hits to.
Half of the animations (running, melee combat) are from Risen 2. It seems like Piranha is not even trying anymore and I’m really sad about this.
I’ve never heard about “Risen fans”, but I know many people who are still waiting in hope that they will repeat the success of Gothic II.
By the way
The combat system looks dire, once again the stun attack is back from gothic 3
unfortunately, its really weird.. it’s round same block/attack technique used in previous games, which is ok if they manage to make it right , but with these animations it’s doubtful..
Exactly my thoughts!
Yeah but it’s about timing though and keeping your distance. I’ve seen videos where people trying to mash though enemies, the combat just doesn’t work like that.
