Plot
After abandoning the island, Kate Walker finds herself adrift on a makeshift boat, rescued by the Youkol people. Determined to escape their common enemies, she decides to help the nomads fulfill their odd ancestral tradition, as they accompany their snow ostriches on their seasonal migration.
Development
On 1 April 2009, Microïds announced that Syberia 3 was being developed and aimed to be released on PC and PlayStation 3 in June 2010 as a real-time 3D game. The company had then stated that the game would miss its original June 2010 release date because negotiations with Benoît Sokal were underway and the takeover by Anuman. On 17 April 2010, another press release was issued, explaining that the PC version will be released, but the PS3 version may not, due to problems with Sony. Microïds had also asked that fans of Syberia send them emails of support for the game.
In an interview given in February 2011, Benoît Sokal revealed that work on the game had not even started due to a lack of funding. On 21 August 2013, it was announced that the game had gone into production.
The game's first screenshots were shown on 13 August 2014, and the stated release was given as of 2015 on PC, macOS, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, iOS and Android. The first official trailer has been released in June 2016 and the second in March 2017. The game will be dubbed in English, French, Russian, Polish, Czech, Korean, Portuguese, and Chinese.
