Gangs of Sherwood is a cooperative action game set in the world of Robin Hood, in which the armies of the Sheriff of Nottingham have been enhanced by the power of the Philosopher's Stone, and it's up to Robin Hood and his band of Merry Men (and woman) to stop them.
While we don't get a whole lot to go on, and what footage there is shows pre-alpha gameplay, Gangs of Sherwood could end up being a fun co-op experience. We see Marian, Friar Tuck, Little John and of course, Robin Hood himself, each with their own combat styles.
What do you think of Gangs of Sherwood? Was the classic 1993 film Robin Hood: Men in Tights as awesome as we remember? Share your thoughts equally, according to need, in the comments section below.

I'd like to see a gangs of westminster game where the lead character "boris" robs from the poor to give to the rich...sounds as if it could be based on actual events..
Looks interesting. I'm all for more co-op PVE titles rather than PVP. So fingers crossed.
We just recently got that game Hood: Outlaws and Legends, which sounds similar. I haven’t played it but I’m wondering why the sudden interest in Robin Hood with game developers.
Well, the market has supported multiple new military shooters every year, so perhaps 2 multiplayer online Hood based rob-the-rich games isn’t too many to have.
@Th3solution I thought the same thing... Guess 1 is pvevp while this is a more coop focused game? Still- seems not so fresh! Would have rather they just released a pve expansion for the other game (which looks more polished) as it's already released on plus!
@Th3solution I was actually going to post that. Hopefully this game plays differently because I didn't really like Hood that much.
"Was the classic 1993 film Robin Hood: Men in Tights as awesome as we remember?" - 100%
Reminds of the Amazing ps3 game Lord of the Ring: War in the north. If it is anything like that action, I am 1000% looking forward to it.
We can rob the poor and shoot the money?
I know I say this a lot, but this particular article title really seriously needed quotes around the game title "Gangs of Sherwood" b/c legit it gave me a headache just now trying to figure out what I was reading.😝 Going to go take some aspirin, ouch.
The camera angle is different. Soon as the trailer started I was like "here we go with another top down coop game", but I was pleasantly surprised when the gameplay started.
