Our take on Eternal Dread 3
Players who want a single, permanent class identity may bounce when the story introduces the option to add a second class. Those uninterested in maintaining multiple characters may also find less use for the shared stash and saved drops.
What is Eternal Dread 3?
Eternal Dread 3 is an action RPG set in a world dominated by demons, where humanity is close to extinction.
Character creation offers 8 classes: Warrior, Ranger, Mage, Battle Mage, Engineer, Guardian, Sage, and Rogue. Their abilities cover melee combat, archery, elemental magic, summoned beasts, turrets, gadgets, defense, sacred light, and status ailments. Defeat can lead to different game-over scenarios based on the enemy and location. Players explore varied locations and fight enemies with different skills and challenges. Combat provides equipment, skills, and signets for character growth. After a certain point in the story, a second class can be selected alongside the first. A shared stash stores drops and items for use by other characters in later playthroughs.
