Developed by Access Games and released in 2013 for PlayStation 3, Drakengard 3 is an action RPG and hack-and-slash title set in a medieval world governed by six powerful sisters called Intoners, who maintain peace through a form of song-based magic. The story centers on Zero, the eldest of these sisters, who sets out to kill her five siblings with the aid of her dragon companion, Mikhail. The narrative gradually unravels Zero's true motivations, framing the game as a prequel to the original Drakengard. Combat alternates between ground-based engagements, where Zero cuts through large numbers of enemies in close-quarters melee, and aerial sequences fought from the back of Mikhail. The game carries the series' characteristic tone of brutal, relentless action alongside a story that subverts the apparent simplicity of its initial premise.
The story focuses on Zero, a woman who can manipulate magic through song. Partnering with a dragon named Mikhail, Zero set out to kill her five sisters, who rule the world's regions. As she travels, the player discovers the true reason behind Zero's rampage.
