Looking for a probable release date for Risk of Rain 3? Well, if such a release happens, it will happen for all the major platforms – PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch like its prequels. But, unfortunately, there is no confirmed news of a Risk of Rain 3 release. As of now, we have no data confirming the third installment to this popular series of video games. But, Risk of Rain does have an interesting history. Read this article to know more about the video game and a possible prediction for Risk of Rain 3’s release date.
Risk of Rain was the brainchild of two indie game developers and was released in 2013 for the Microsoft Windows platform only. The original Risk of Rain featured an action-platformer with rogue-like elements. You will be fighting off randomly spawning enemies and bosses on a mysterious planet – play it solo or bring up to three friends to fight with you. Risk of Rain was also released for consoles later on. However, the developers decided to make a sequel – Risk of Rain 2 – for the major fans of the original game. Risk of Rain 2 was released in 2020 and has received mostly positive reviews since then. Unlike Risk of Rain (original), Risk of Rain 2 is a 3D video game – a fresh look and feel. However, ROR 2 features the same story as the original.
When will Risk of Rain 3 release for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One & Nintendo Switch?
Considering the 2019 console release and the 2020 Steam release, ROR 2 is a fairly new game. So, it is safe to assume that Risk of Rain 3 isn’t coming anytime soon. Risk of Rain 2 will be receiving its first paid DLC in Q1 of 2022. The DLC, titled Survivors of the Void, will include a lot of new content: bosses, survivors, enemies, items, stages, a game mode, and much more. Back in January 2021, Risk of Rain 2 had received an Anniversary Update which included new content too. It seems like the developers have decided to keep things fresh for fans. So, Risk of Rain 2 will be receiving regular updates and content.
Risk of Rain (original) was released in 2013 and was followed by Risk of Rains 2 in 2019. If the developers decide to create a Risk of Rain 3 for us and follow a trend with the release dates, we may see the next installment of the series in 2025. However, there are a lot of other possibilities too. We will have to wait and see!
