Drakengard 3 screens:

Square Enix, Inc., the publisher of SQUARE ENIX interactive entertainment products in the Americas, today announced that its action (RPG) Drakengard 3 will be coming to the Americas exclusively for the PlayStation?3 computer entertainment system.

A prequel to the original Drakengard, Drakengard 3 transports players to a medieval world where six goddess-like sisters known as ?Intoners? have brought peace to the earth with their power to manipulate magic through song. Harmony is disrupted, however, when the eldest sister, Zero, attempts to murder her younger sisters with the help of her dragon companion, Mikhail. As the story progresses, players find themselves in a battle to unravel the mystery of Zero and learn her true intentions.

Featuring the series? signature brand of action, Drakengard 3 pits players against hordes of fiends and foes in remorseless hack-and-slash ground combat, and then sends them soaring for pitched aerial battles on the back of Mikhail.

Drakengard 3 will be available for $49.99 next year on the PlayStation 3 system and for digital download on the PlayStation Network and the Square Enix Online Store. Starting today, players can pre-order the game at the Square Enix Online Store.
