Defender's Quest 2 This Month

There's ruin in the forecast, as Armor Games Studios and Level Up Labs announce that Defender's Quest 2: Mists of Ruin will launch on Steam on January 30th. This new installment in the tower defense series will also come to PlayStation and Switch at a later TBA date. The Re-Announcement Trailer from last year takes a look at what's changed in the dozen years since the launch of the first game. Here's an overview:
Engage in vibrant tower defense battles using The Hunters, lead by the spear-wielding Evni Hunt, and the Stars with their fearless captain Ketter Star. Unlock and build relationships with crew members across both groups, each with abilities to master, backstories to unravel, and upgrades to unlock.

In a main campaign spanning six to ten hours of gameplay, complete levels rewarding long-term strategy and RPG tactics. Wield laser cannons, carving spears, and hammers to take down pesky Pinchbugs among other foes. Overcome each obstacle with accessibility options ranging from multiple difficulty settings to sped-up or slowed-down dialogue and control mapping.
