Publisher Curve Games and developer IronOak Games today announced that turn-based roguelike RPG For the King 2 is getting a closed beta whose start and end dates are just around the corner.
For the King 2 builds upon the first game’s foundation, fleshing out its blend of strategy, turn-based combat, and roguelike elements. Up to four players can team up and set off on new adventures, fighting new threats and likely dying a whole lot.
