Suikoden III: The Successor of Fate (幻想水滸伝III -運命の継承者-, Gensōsuikoden III Unmei no Keishō-sha) is the licensed manga adaptation of Suikoden III published by Media Factory between 2002 and 2006.

It was the first manga adaptation of a game in the Suikoden series. Previous games had received adaptations in the form of light novels. Originally intended to be seven volumes, the run was extended to ten, then 11 volumes. Shimizu Aki was both the artist and writer for the series.

This manga series would also be the first Suikoden series publication to be localized into English outside of Japan. It would be published by Tokyopop in the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom, with extra pages of text explaining the setting and story of the first two Suikoden games. The manga was also published in Traditional Chinese and French, by Tong Li Publishing and Soleil Manga, in Taiwan and France respectively.

From 2021 to 2022, Soleil Manga published a compilation of the French translation in five parts, dubbing it the 'Perfect Edition.'
