Sword and Fairy Ex (仙劍Ex, Xiān Jiàn Ex), also known as The Legend of Sword and Fairy 3 Side Story: Quest for Love ( 仙剑奇侠传三外传·问情篇, Xiān Jiàn Qí Xià Zhuàn 3 Sān Wài Zhuàn·Wèn Qíng Piān), is a role-playing video game. It is a spin-off from the Sword and Fairy series that was developed by the Shanghai subsidiary of Softstar Entertainment.

Development

After the release of The Legend of Sword and Fairy 3, Softstar Entertainment's Shanghai subsidiary began work on The Legend of Sword and Fairy 4. The Legend of Sword and Fairy 3 Extra Chapter: Quest for Love was developed as an interim release between the third and fourth mainline games.

It used the GameBox engine, which was the same engine used in the New Legend of Sword and Fairy remake of the first game in the series, which was released in 2001, and Sword and Fairy 3, which was released in 2003.

The Legend of Sword and Fairy 3 Extra Chapter: Quest for Love was released for Windows in Taiwan on August 6, 2004 and in China on October 28, 2004. It was released worldwide as Sword and Fairy 3 Ex on Windows via Steam on April 14, 2021, however the in-game text was still only available in Chinese.
