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.
