Daedalic Entertainment announces the release of Blackguards 2, saying the fantasy-themed strategy/RPG sequel is now available worldwide for Windows and OS X via digital distribution through portals such as GOG.com and Steam. Here's the official launch trailer (in "Englisch"), and here's word from GOG.com:

Blackguards 2 presents a non-linear story of a ragtag group of antiheroes in the gritty world of the The Dark Eye. This hexy, turn based, tactical RPG series is best known for its deep combat system, and Blackguards 2 once again gives players an unprecedented amount of choice on the battlefield. Anything goes out there - knock down a wall and crush your opponents, or drench them in water to go in for a devastating electrical shock. Blackguards 2 is everything a sequel should be: deeper, hexier, and more complex. The combat system saw many requested improvements, with a plethora of fresh and exciting gameplay mechanics waiting to challenge veterans and new players alike.
