The game development studio Cyanide and French publisher NACON are pleased to announce the release of a brand-new trailer for Blood Bowl 3, available on PC, PlayStation®4, PlayStation®5, Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S on 23 February 2023.

Blood Bowl is a brutal fantasy football inspired competition populated by Elves, Humans, Orcs and other fantasy creatures. But do you know the specific features of Blood Bowl 3? What you need is a little update for the new game a few weeks before launch. It’s lining up to be a smash hit!

There will be 12 factions available for the launch of Blood Bowl 3. The most iconic factions are returning, such as the Dwarfs and Dark Elves. But they will be joined by brand-new factions, such as the Imperial Nobility, Old World Alliance, Chaos Renegades and the Black Orcs, not to mention new factions that will be added at a later date!

The dynamic pitches also hold their share of surprises: in certain situations, these pitches transform during the match and change the rules. Kraken, unbearable heat and insect swarms, these events are sure to create memorable moments!

Among the new features, Blood Bowl 3 includes a major redesign of the passing system to provide better team balance. Passing the ball is no longer linked to the Agility characteristic, but rather to a new characteristic: Passing Ability. You will also have the chance to learn new skills that will come in useful for devising your strategies.

The levelling up system has also been completely revamped to provide more flexibility and more balanced levelling within a team.

And many more features are there to explore! Player and team customisation, a season system, official ranking: all the new features will allow every coach to stand out and enjoy a unique Blood Bowl experience. You can therefore flaunt your own distinctive style in the Old World during the single-player Clash of Sponsors campaign and against other players.

Blood Bowl 3 will be available in several editions:

  • Standard (digital): 29,99€ PC / 39,99€ Consoles
  • Deluxe – Black Orcs / Deluxe – Imperial Nobility (digital): 39,99€ PC / 49,99€ Consoles
  • Brutal Edition (retail and digital): 49,99€ PC / 59,99€ Consoles
  • The Deluxe and Brutal editions give access to some exclusive customisation content. Check the details on your favorite digital store. Get exclusive content as a bonus

Featuring updated rules from the latest edition of the legendary board game, Blood Bowl 3 is a fantastic virtual experience based on the tabletop. The game will feature 12 factions at launch, including 4 playable for the first time in a Blood Bowl video game. Each faction has its own unique characteristics and related content. There are also single-player and multiplayer modes as well as more customization options than ever before. Every 3 months, a new season will start, adding unlockable rewards in the Blood Pass and a new playable faction.
