Deep Silver today announced that Sacred 3, the latest installment of the classic Sacred series, will be available on the 29th July in North America and on the 1st August in the rest of the world for the Xbox 360 games and entertainment system from Microsoft and the PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system as well as Windows PC. In this arcade Hack ‘n’ Slash game, players will journey towards becoming the ultimate hero of Ancaria – not only with the support of their friends, but also by using spirits of legendary descent that are sealed within the heroes’ iconic armaments.

Weapon Spirits will help the player to level their heroes and make their equipped weapons deadlier than ever. These mysterious spirits come in all shapes and sizes with many different powers to make for the perfect companion during the player’s battle through Ancaria. Weapon Spirits will enable players to increase critical hit rates, hamper enemy movement, regain health, empower the entire team and much more.

Weapon Spirits can be leveled individually, and their powers can be leveraged by a single player or the entire team, offline and online, throughout the entire game.

People who pre-order Sacred 3 will get the exclusive weapon spirit Z4ngr13f, a former Sacred-player that got sucked into the world of Ancaria.
