Gangs Of Sherwood is a cooperative action game for 1 to 4 players set in the reimagined world of Robin Hood.

Through the powers of the Philosopher's Stones, the armies of the Sheriff of Nottingham are now stronger than ever, and the people of England have never been so oppressed…

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.

“Hear me, brave folk of Locksley! I, Alan-A-Dale, official minstrel of the band of outlaws led by Robin Hood, have much to tell you.

First, take note that the Gangs of Sherwood adventure shall start not on 19 October, but on 2 November of the Year of our Lord 2023. Our heroes shall put these few additional weeks to good use, to better prepare their offensive against the armies of the vile Sheriff of Nottingham.

Yet fear not!

The most eager among you may take part in a special training session, dubbed a “Steam demo”, from 5 to 16 October.

However, before then, it is important that you understand the full story of the rebellion by Robin Hood and his Merry Men against the Sheriff’s oppressive yoke. Allow me to share with you the tale of Gangs of Sherwood … through a puppet show”
