Update: Trine 3 is almost finished. The game was announced and released on Steam Early Access earlier this year and now it will be officially releasing on the 20th of August.

Trine 3 will be the first in the series to feature a fully 3D environment, freeing it from the 2D plane. Aside from that, gameplay will remain the same, allowing you to switch between the wizard, the archer and the knight, solving puzzles and making your way through the game.
The Early Access launch will take place on the 21st of April, for £14.99 in the UK and $19.99 in the US.
