Gangs of Sherwood was announced during Nacon Connect, the announcement trailer showing off the action co-op gameplay that will be coming to consoles and PC in 2023.
The most intriguing thing about Gangs of Sherwood is actually how it will treat the Robin Hood mythos. While everyone knows of the skilful bowman’s fight for financial equality, Gangs of Sherwood will transform the medieval setting by blending it with WW1 era technology. It’s quite a strange mix, it seems, but we’ll see how it combines.
As a co-op game, you’ll play as Robin, Marian, Friar Tuck or Little John, with each hero having unique gameplay skills, and you’ll then head out to try and plunder them from the rich and wealthy of Nottingham. From Sherwood Forest, you’ll battle your way up to the Sheriff’s flying castle – does it howl? – battling through hordes of enemies. You’ll have to overcome enhances soldiers, war machines and hulking bosses in the way.
