Despite many expecting the imminent arrival of the latest title in The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing saga for some time now, it seems the upcoming title has arrived with us a little sooner than expected.
As of right now, players can jump in to the highly anticipated third entry in the series as the first of January’s Xbox Live Games With Gold titles is available to download now. What’s better is those with an active Xbox Live Gold membership can get in on the action absolutely free from now until the end of January 2018, before being sold at a price of £11.99.
The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing III sees players once more reprise the role of popular monster hunter Van Helsing as he works his way through the alternative Gothic-Noir styled Europe in this thrilling conclusion to the trilogy.
This time around players will return to Borgovia, the land in which Van Helsing has already spent time liberating from the tyranny of mad science. After the end of the war that spiralled from that very liberation, something else has now taken hold of the land. A former ally tuned fearful arch-villain has become the latest target for Van Helsing to hunt down with his deadly tricks and arsenal of weaponry, and this time it’s personal.

Game Description:
Reprise your role as Van Helsing, the fearless monster hunter, the star of this unique action-RPG set in an alternative Gothic-noir Europe (although we really shouldn’t ignore his charming, but deadly ghost companion, Lady Katarina). It’s time to return to Borgovia where you had already liberated the land from the tyranny of mad science, only to ignite the spark of a civil war, then grudgingly led the Resistance against the military genius who tried to destroy everything you had been working for. However, while you fought an army of mechanical monsters and defeated General Harker, you suffered betrayal from your mysterious ally, who tricked you and obtained the most powerful artifact, the hidden death of Koschei the Deathless. In Borgovia, the war is over, but the future looks grim. The city of weird science is in ruins, squabbling factions and criminals fight for power and a strange cult prophesizes the coming of “the end times.” And they might be just right: a wave of uncanny events shakes the land, and it’s all connected to a mysterious creature, a former ally turned into a fearful arch-villain. Which means that Van Helsing will do what he does best: he grabs his weapons, prepares his deadly tricks, and hunts down the most dangerous monster who has ever lived… and this time it’s personal. He’s prepared to do anything to achieve his goal, even to face the darkest secret about the birth of the modern Borgovia. Features • Story – Prepare to meet your darkest fears in the conclusion of this gothic-noir adventure trilogy. This is the finale, the darkest chapter of the adventures of Van Helsing. • New Classes – Choose from six playable classes: defeat your foes as the melee-specialist Protector, be the most accurate shooter as the Bounty Hunter, master the weird science as the Phlogistoneer, engineer your tactics as the Constructor, control the magical forces as the Elementalist or become a dark, stealthy killer as the Umbralist. • Leveling – Become more powerful as you advance through the game: the level-up customization is more detailed and diverse than ever. • Exploration – Explore new areas in this war-torn land of darkness – both in the physical world and the Ink. • Camaraderie – Engage in witty banter with your loyal follower, Katarina – and finally, find out her secrets: the story of her past. • Combat – Fight hordes of bloodthirsty enemies, now more feral and terrifying than ever. Take all the weapons and tools you need: choose from plenty of new powerful items for this adventure. • Multiplayer – You and your friends can test your skills against each other via the PVP mode (4 players) or join forces and complete the story in the co-operative campaign (4 players).
I wish that game would let me get the hell out of act 1! Actually, it could be a brilliant piece of work, if there weren’t bugs, bugs, bugs. Additionally, some parts were translated into German, whole other parts weren’t. That’s anything but decent work! Either translate the whole sh.t or nothing! I am totally annoyed about that piece of unfinished work we’ve been presented here. It’s a damn pity – that game would’ve had huge potential.
Great trilogy!
