Looks like the fantasy genre is making an impactful comeback, solidified further by today's debut trailer for Dungeon Siege 3 from Obsidian Entertainment.

There's no gameplay on offer in this debut video, but it shows the game will clearly focus heavily on story (a must for any fantasy title, really) as well as maintaining the series' lineage. It's also important to note that Square Enix and Obsidian have made a point to mention the developer's hand in both Fallout: New Vegas and Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II; throwing some proverbial RPG weight behind the teams involved. Either way, it's all boding quite well for the franchise.

Unfortunately, we'll have to wait until next year, but in the meantime, check out the trailer below.
