The Banner Saga was a solid strategy game with gorgeous, hand-drawn art and a grim story about survival. The sequel is just around the corner, and the developers have put together a launch trailer to celebrate the occasion.
Like the original, the Banner Saga 2 will charge you with managing the well-being of a caravan traveling a long, wintry road with tough, story-altering decisions to make along the way. Your choices in the previous game will affect the journey here.
Improved combat will make the action deeper and more strategic, with the looming threat of death for your warriors making every decision in combat more impactful. A new race called the Horseborn will give you new considerations both in battle and diplomacy.
The Banner Saga 2 is due to launch on April 19 on PC and Mac.
