Battle, exploration, puzzle, collection: the game has plenty of options for action! Complete multiple side quests and demonstrate your curiosity as you collect hidden objects to become a true Gaul.

In the game, you’ll obviously find all your favourite Gauls, including Getafix, Cacofonix and Vitalstatistix, along with new characters created for the game: the more the merrier! So, are you ready to go on an adventure and to take on the Roman legions?”, Microids’ new press release reads.
The game will be available in two limited editions. The Limited Edition will contain the game and one Asterix and Obelix figures each. The Collector Edition will include these, as well as a 15-centimetre resin figure with Obelix and Dogmatix. Asterix & Obelix XXL 3: The Crystal Menhir will launch on November 21 on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC, Microids (the publisher) and Osome Studio (the developers) announced.
It’s an interesting thought to see figures included in a limited edition of a game. Usually, it’s a soundtrack CD or something else…
