Three ancient spirits ruled the Dark World; Jedah, the oldest spirit, was resurrected. In an effort to rule over the Dark World alone, Jedah wants to save all of the dispirited souls.

To create his perfect salvation, he calls those with valuable souls to his world so can take control of them. Choose from 18 horror themed characters as they battle in a tournament to the death.

Every character has unique combinations and ultra powerful dark force moves. Be warned, though, as the arenas can have positive and negative effects on the fighters. You'll be mesmerized by the gorgeous, hand drawn animation that brings the action to life.

After beating the computer controlled contenders, challenge your friends in the versus mode, and if they fear your superior skills, feel free to handicap the match. Darkstalkers 3 will challenge your skills as you fight to become the ruler of the night.

Features:
* You are Jedah, ancient spirit of the Dark World
* Overcome the souls of others to become ruler of the Dark World
* Choose from 18 horror themed characters as they battle in a tournament to the death
* Gorgeous, hand drawn animation
* For 1 player
