Are you ready to get stealing from the rich, only to give to the poor? The Gangs of Sherwood will be recruiting this October. And to get you in the mood for the release, a brand new gameplay video has been revealed. 

Gangs of Sherwood is NACON and Appeal Studios’ cooperative adventure affair, one that whisks us off to the world of Robin Hood and his merry men in a hugely reimagined world. It’s a game that promises fast-paced action, plenty of stealing and a story that focuses on the power of the Philosopher’s Stone. 

Been caught stealin’

Gangs of Sherwood has today been gifted a release date, with October 19th 2023 set. It’s then when we’ll see the game hit Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5 and PC (through Steam and Epic).

Playable alone or with friends – and we’d like to guess that the cooperative action will be the way to go – Gangs of Sherwood on Xbox, PlayStation and PC will see you taking on the role of four of the most iconic of characters. Robin Hood will be front and centre, as we would expect, but Maid Marian, Friar Tuck and Little John will all be ready for business. 

It’s two of those that we get to see in action in the latest gameplay trailer, as NACON and Appeal show off how this one will play. 

Science-fantasy Robin Hood?

In Gangs of Sherwood we discover that the Sheriff of Nottingham’s armies have built up untold power and are oppressing the people of England more than ever.

In a unique science-fantasy version of the Robin Hood legend, Gangs of Sherwood on Xbox, PlayStation and PC will feature explosive combat, spectacular combos, and co-op gameplay for fans of epic battles and challenges in stunning environments.

An Xbox gamer since 2002, I bought the big black box just to play Oddworld: Munch's Oddysee. I have since loved every second of the 360's life and am now just as obsessed with the Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S - mostly with the brilliant indie scene that has come to the fore.
