Dungeon Siege III Expanding Its Lore With Help From Dark Horse Comics

Square Enix has announced the seemingly inevitable comic book tie-in for its upcoming dungeon crawler, Dungeon Siege III. The partnership with Dark Horse Comics will give players added insight into Obsidian Entertainment's game via three new web comics. The comics are a collaboration between writer Jeremy Barlow and artists Iban Coello and Sergio Abad.

The comics will be available via the game's official site, as well as through Dark Horse Comics' digital store. In addition, Wal-mart will be packing in an exclusive printed comic with the game when it ships May 31 on the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and PC.
