About

Dungeon Siege III, released in 2011, is an action role-playing game developed by Obsidian Entertainment. As the third installment in the well-known Dungeon Siege series, it offers an engaging blend of exploration, character progression, and cooperative multiplayer gameplay. Players can choose from four distinct characters, each with unique abilities, while battling through a visually rich fantasy world that extends the legacy of its predecessors.

For PC gamers looking to benchmark their performance, Dungeon Siege III is relatively accessible. It requires a minimum of 2 GB RAM and an entry-level GPU with a minimum score of approximately 552. Gamers aiming for a smoother experience should consider mid-tier GPUs to achieve a stable FPS, especially on higher graphics settings. This makes the game ideal for a wide range of systems, allowing players to experience the action without the need for cutting-edge hardware.

While Dungeon Siege III has received a mixed rating of 70/100, its engaging gameplay and cooperative features may appeal to fans of the genre. If you enjoy action RPGs and have compatible hardware, it’s certainly worth a try, as it delivers hours of entertainment despite some criticisms in its execution.

Performance profile

June 2011 release. Dungeon Siege III targets mid-2000s-to-early-2010s hardware — any modern entry-level GPU (GTX 1650 tier or newer integrated graphics) handles it at 1080p Ultra without breaking a sweat.

Extremely light — Dungeon Siege III runs at 60 FPS 1080p on any integrated GPU (Intel Iris Xe, AMD Radeon Graphics) or a decade-old discrete card like the GTX 1050. A current-gen RTX 4060 pushes 4K Ultra without effort.

Storyline

The game returns to the Kingdom of Ehb, which already featured as the setting of the first (but not second) game. Roughly 150 years after the events of Dungeon Siege, the 10th Legion, who provided stability and protection for the kingdom for 400 years, has almost completely been wiped out. 30 years before the game's setting, Jeyne Kassynder rallied the people of eastern Ehb and the Azunite Church against the Legion who she blamed for the death of the king (her father). Following a long and brutal campaign, she managed to kill the entire remnant of the Legion in a battle in the Rukkenvahl Forest and the royalist army of young Queen Roslyn has been driven deep into the mines of Glitterdelve, losing almost all of their power.
