Syberia 3 Launches Early and Syberia 2 is Free on Origin

Ron Perillo / 8 years ago

Syberia 3 launched in Europe on April 20 with the North American release originally on schedule for the following week on April 25, but it seems the game’s publisher Anuman Interactive has decided to release the title worldwide early so it is also now available on Steam for everyone else before the weekend. At the same time, the previous game Syberia 2 is currently being offered FREE via Origin’s “On the House” program for a limited time. Like all previous On The House titles, once the user adds the game to their Origin profile, it is permanently theirs to keep.

The last Syberia game was released more than a decade ago in 2004 so it is not exactly a technical marvel in terms of graphics by today’s standards but it gives players a chance to experience what the game is about before purchasing the latest version. For reference, here is the trailer for Syberia 2:

…and here is the new Syberia 3:

The limitless imagination of Benoît Sokal continues in Syberia 3, focusing on an entirely new adventure.
