Nacon and developer Appeal Studios have announced that Gangs of Sherwood, the co-op action game set in the reimagined world of Robin Hood, will arrive for PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S on October 19. In celebration of the news, the team have released a 17 minute long gameplay video, check it out below.

Play as Robin, Marian, Friar Tuck or Little John, four heroes with unique, fully customizable gameplay styles, and set out in search of riches to plunder so you can give them to the poor. From Sherwood Forest to the Sheriff’s flying castle, the way forward is blocked by hordes of enemies. Combine the different heroes’ combat styles to foil the tyrant’s plans and fight performance-enhanced soldiers, formidable war machines and terrifying bosses that you meet as you advance.

The reason why there is a flying castle and the enemies are so dangerous, the Sheriff of Nottingham has obtained a Philosopher’s Stone and using the power bestowed by it, has taken to ruling with an iron grip.

The game can be played solo, or with three mates, each taking on one of the characters and should you play with others, some powerful combos can be unlocked.
