Berserker 2: The Saga of Hilde Announced

Developer One Life Games reveals a new life for Berserker with the announcement of Berserker 2: The Saga of Hilde, a sequel to its action title coming to Steam next year. This promises more side-scrolling action in a return to the game's setting in Norse mythology, as seen in the Announcement trailer. Here's more:

Set in a myth-inspired Norse world, Berserker 2 follows Asbjorn, a warrior on a search for his missing child, and Volva Gerd, a mystic with connections to the supernatural. The story begins in the coastal settlement of Kaupang and gradually expands into a larger conflict involving Draugr and giants.

The gameplay mixes side-scrolling combat, light exploration, and story sequences. Players switch between two protagonists who take different approaches to combat and navigation. While the game retains a 2D perspective, all environments are built in 3D with a fixed camera system.
