Description
The award-winning adventure continues in Banner Saga 2! This epic, story-based, role-playing game continues its emotional journey across a breaking world. Bold leadership decisions, wise use of resources, and skillful battle tactics are vital to ensure your Viking clans make it through alive. Experience what took the indie gaming world by storm in Banner Saga 2!
  • The epic Viking saga continues on – beautifully 2D hand drawn combat sequences and animations are further enhanced with special effects, once again accompanied by an evocative score from Grammy-nominated composer Austin Wintory
  • Player choice that continues to drive your narrative – your story continues based on choices made in the first game as well as hard choices you have to make in this one.
  • New Characters and a New Race – continue your epic journey interacting with new characters and a new race, the Horseborn.
  • Improved Strategic combat with consequences – improved, more strategic battle boards enhance combat and permanent loss of characters will still weigh heavy on your mind long after the battle is over.
  • The journey is as important as battle – your role in building and managing your caravan as you travel the vast landscape is critical to not only your own survival but the survival of an entire civilization.

8.9/10
The Banner Saga 2 doesn't change much of the experience that made the original such a well-loved surprise two years ago, and that's a good thing. The improvements may be small, but they're also substantial: the new combat units, the introduction of a second caravan story to follow, and the obstacles in the battlefield add up nicely. While beautifully written and populated with memorable characters and twists, the story does slightly suffer from a case of the "middle episodes" that may leave you eager for more. On the bright side, we know that more is on the way in a third and final installment.

A handsome and brutal strategy sequel that benefits from a range of intelligent improvements

8.5/10
A solid follow-up, but it gets bogged down in plodding encounters in battle and on the overworld

Useless translation update

Latest update changed, at least, russian translation. Instead of fullname of parameter, like "Armor" (written in russian), there is something like "Arm". Why translations was updated like that...?

Bizzare Saga 2

My experience with TBS2 was very similar to the first edition - I made a few decisions which I had no real idea of the impact they might have, then I stared in absolute wonder at the strangeness of the combat system. I sent some Axemen to clear some felled tress, got attacked, my main fighters were no longer available for the fight, despite spending all my experience upgrading them. Why? Because apparently a good commander sends the front line troops to clear felled trees, keeping the peasants ready in case of attack. Quickly uninstalled, similar to the first one in all respects, combat is still a mess, campaign is still pointless numbers, zero connection to any character, especially the idiot commander and their unexplained decisions.
