A dark shadow has been cast over Myrtana as leagues of Orcs have overthrown the human king. Caring little for the rights and beliefs of man, the Orcs have turned humans into their slaves. There are very few humans left that have managed to live free. Reduced to sleeping in caves and living life in fear, you find yourself in this grim situation. As a free man, you have the luxury of living life as you see fit. Will you defend the honor of the king, will you fall victim to a life enslaved by filthy Orcs or will you carve your own unique story into the fabrics of time? The choice is yours, but choose wisely: it could be your last decision. Gothic 3 brings you into the middle of this dismal world. Myrtana is a gigantic, free-roaming environment that is yours to explore. Every decision you make has an impact on the story. Wage war on enemies and hide in the shadows of the night. Featuring an all-new combat system, Gothic 3 gives you complete control over all combat attacks. Advanced artificial intelligence behaviors make interaction with all characters incredibly realistic, and the class-free character development means you can train your character with both military and magical powers. Myrtana will never be the same once you arrive. Will your impact be epic, or will you become a mindless slave?
