At last, the time has come for THQ Nordic's action role-playing game (ARPG) "Titan Quest" to drop on the Microsoft console — the Xbox One.

In previous announcements, developer THQ Nordic confirmed that "Titan Quest" will be dropping to the Xbox One sometime in 2018. Now, a specific release date has been confirmed for the action-packed title, which is set on the 20th of this month.

The port will come in two different editions, a standard and a collector's edition. The former will come with the original game and the Immortal Throne expansion pack and is valued at $30. Meanwhile, the collector's edition will come packed with the base game, the Immortal Throne pack, and a Greek war helmet replica that stands nine inches tall. It will see a purchasing price of $120.

Most often tagged as somewhat similar to Blizzard's "Diablo III," "Titan Quest" will see players take on the role of a hero, who will face the escaped titans. It is set in the ancient times inside the vast lands of Greek, Asia, and Egypt. Afraid for their own well-being, the gods seek the help of humanity in order to defeat the incoming threat of the infamous titans.

To give interested players a clue on the game's narrative, users will face off with various antagonists from the Greek mythology such as Cerberus, the three-headed beast of the underworld. However, players should not fear as valiant heroes in the form of Agamemnon and Achilles will come to aid the battle against these powerful foes.

Since its launch back in 2006 for the PC platform, '"Titan Quest" has garnered a large following, and to this day continues to be one of the most popular ARPGs of all time.

In recent years, the game has seen a resurgence in the mobile platform back in 2016 — on the iOS and on Android.

"Titan Quest" will finally be available on Xbox One this coming March 20.
