As the world continues to crumble around you, who can you trust, how will you protect your allies and what choices will you make as the Darkness draws near?
- Witness the Banner Saga as you’ve never seen it before as a dark force takes over and effects everything you’ve come to know in the beautifully hand-painted finale of the trilogy.
- Choose new playable characters to join your party, including dredge heroes! Take advantage of new upgrade options as they progress in battle.
- Deeper strategic combat with the new battle waves system against a myriad of new enemies.The valka spear and heroic titles let players customize their playstyle even further.
- Drive your own narrative as you carry over your choices from both Banner Sagas 1 & 2, leading to different climatic endings in this final chapter. No hero is safe.
- An all-new original score from Grammy-nominated composer Austin Wintory.

90/100
A daring, exciting and bleakly powerful payoff that handsomely rewards your investment in its characters.

8.3/10
The Banner Saga 3 offers the darkest entry yet in this beautifully animated tactical RPG trilogy. Choices matter and come fast and furious, making this journey a thrilling roller coaster from the opening moments to the ending credits. Combat can be a bit of a chore once you find your footing, and the story ends all too quickly, but The Banner Saga 3 is a rich and powerful experience and a worthy end to a breakout trilogy.

horribly crash prone bug riddled slop
even worse than BS1 and BS2 already where on the technical part, infinite loading loops, random crashes, corrupting save files, not remembering settings, so so much wrong with this mediocre slop franchise not making it worth it, go play the million of other RPGs, Visual Novels, Strategy Games out there, almost all of which will be better, should NOT support these Devs!

3 times is the charm?
If you played the first two games you'd probably wondered what the hell was going on, as not much explanation was given. Fear not, the conclusion to the whole story comes with this one and it isn't even that bad. it's particularly that great either, though, as two main narrative threads seem quite disconnected. Well, storytelling wasn't really the strong point of the saga anyway, if you ask me, and the tactical battles still deliver. If you are like me, you'd probably like the survial mode more than the actual campaign so I'd recommend getting it. It's quite tough but allows for some really, really broken combos and no narrator is taking your heroes away dramatic reasons just after you invested a ton of money in them...

Constant crashes are infuriating.
In my playthrough so far I have encountered over 20 crashes. In a game that has been out for so long this is not acceptable. This does seem to be very common and is not isolated to me or my specific set up. Story is passable. Gone is the sense of dread that permeates the 1st 2 Banner Sage titles, although that is understandable due to the need to complete the story. The revelations the 1st 2 titles have been building up regarding the valka climaxes in a rather limp fashion. Gameplay is larely the same from previous BS titles minus the travelling. Combat similar and lacking in depth compared to SPRG heavyweights. Would be 3 stars without the crashes.
