Stoic launches Banner Saga 3 Kickstarter

Stoic are back with a new Kickstarter for Banner Saga 3, the final chapter in the Viking trilogy.

The campaign is set to run for 30 days and Stoic are looking to raise $200,000.

“We’re going full circle and returning to Kickstarter where it all began. In 2012, the backers were instrumental in bringing the saga to life, smashing our initial funding target that led us to increase the scope, fidelity and production values of Banner Saga”, said John Watson, co-founder and Technical Director at Stoic. “We’re proud to be indie, and despite the stellar support we get from our publisher, Versus Evil, we’re not taking any outside funding to bring this series home, we’d love Kickstarter support to add additional features that are simply beyond our current budget”.

With no outside funding, the team will be stumping up the rest of the cash to get the game completed. Details are a little vague, which is unsurprising, and as with the previous two games, progress from can be carried over. The page describes the third part as follows:

The Darkness plays a major role in Banner Saga 3 and your exploration of it will be unlike anything you have experienced in the previous sagas. Interact with the vast city of Arberrang and travel its streets. The gods may be dead, but their godstones and their world, remain full of wonder.
