The final chapter in The Banner Saga is supposedly launching in late 2018, but before developer Stoic can start thinking about pushing The Banner Saga 3 onto the PlayStation Store, it's going to need a bit of help from its fans. As with the studio's previous games, it's taken to Kickstarter in order to help fund its project.
Stoic is asking for $200,000, and at the time of writing, $23,278 has been pledged. However, backer rewards don't specifically mention a PS4 copy of the game, so if you decide to help fund the release, that's something to keep in mind. With both of the previous titles available on Sony's current-gen console, though, we have to imagine that this third episode will also be making the jump once everything's sorted.

I hope they get funded. The recent surge of classic tactical and consequence heavy RPGs has proved a godsend and I hope they continue to make enough money to keep going. Obsidian with Tyranny and Pillars, Larian studios and their Divinity series, Harebrained Schemes and their Shadowrun franchise, inXile and the Wasteland series and the new Torment game should keep everyone looking for a hardcore RPG experience happy and eager to support developers willing to cater to niche audiences.
Have they not made the money to make it from the others? I haven't really followed its development. Good games though, hope it gets made
@Neurotic_Biotic Their putting up most of the money but need a bit more through Kickstarter. They also revealed last year that Banner Saga 2 didn't sell as well as they hoped.
I'd back it to get a PS4 copy but they ain't offering it at all. I'll pick it up when it heads over as no doubt it will.
@adf86 They should have made a psv port. They said they would but nothing happened. Had they done that, I'd most certainly be funding this.
@naruball A port of Banner Saga for Vita IS still coming, the developers behind it went bust so Sony had to step to contine the work.
