The Banner Saga 2 is a gripping Norse-inspired fantasy adventure that engages you with its exceptional narrative and captivating art direction. The game features a turn-based combat system that challenges your strategic thinking, new creatures and obstacles, and battles resolved through primary objectives rather than max-murdering the other side. Make difficult decisions that can lead to starvation, mutiny or death, while defying traditional conventions and rejecting typical rules of morality. The sequel is a must-play, with vastly improved combat, deep and rewarding narrative, and an immersive visual and sound design.
What we like:
Engaging narrative
Captivating art direction
Improved combat system
New creatures and obstacles
Battles resolved through primary objectives
What could be improved:
Difficult for new players who did not play the first game
Console controls are awkward and obtuse
Environmental art can make combat harder to navigate
