Since we first revealed the King’s Bounty II trailer at Gamescom 2019, we’ve made great leaps forward in every sense of the word. This is a big and important project for us; an ambitious, open world, complex narrative, with deep turn-based tactical and RPG mechanics. And today, we’re delighted to an in-engine gameplay teaser during Epic Games Store Spring Update 2021 and announce the new release date. As we work on the game over the next months to launch, here’s a little bit of what you can expect.

King’s Bounty II is a turn-based tactical RPG focusing on a rich world that blends realism and fantasy, filled with compelling stories, memorable characters and moral choices aplenty. Much like its predecessors, the game introduces a completely new world, story and three main heroes with their own unique narrative. Their actions will leave mark on this new land Nostria, one of the continents of Antara and the united kingdom of everyone who calls themselves The Nostrians.

But the kingdom is experiencing troubled times. Counties are demanding independence, bandits prowl the road and the overseas nations have rejected the King’s rule. What’s more, a new great danger has arisen; disturbing rumors speak of an overwhelming power that turns forests into dust; entire villages vanish as if they had never existed; tales of horrific monsters roaming Nostria, so terrifying and fearsome that even the bravest warriors turn tail and flee. We don’t have reliable proof about what’s going on in the kingdom, only the mutterings of madmen and stories of scouts disappearing without a trace. What does this mean for the future?

No, we can't give up the fight; it’s time to take command of your personal army. Each squad consists of wholly unique units, each with its own set of skills and visual appearance. Armies of humans, elves, trolls, and other creatures… what could be better? Also, players can expect new tactical features for a deeper, richer combat experience. No more flat arenas. No more restrictions. Every battle now has its own unique tactical advantages and, of course disadvantages too.  Surprise tactical events mid-battle will also keep players on their toes.

With King’s Bounty II, we are introducing a new character development system, based on four different ideals: Power, Finesse, Order and Anarchy. At its heart is a system that leaves it up to you to choose sides, but every action has a consequence. Not only do these choices affect how other characters react to them, but they also have a tangible impact on the world.

The team at 1С Entertainment, and our global publishing partner Koch Media, are driving hard to the launch date, and we’ll be updating you with more details in the months to come.

Thanks for your support and we’ll see you on 24 August 2021!
