Hammerwatch II, the cooperative action RPG from Modus Games, launched on Steam back in August. Console gamers deserve some pixelated RPG love too, though, and so the game has now arrived on PlayStation 5 and Switch. This highly anticipated sequel promises multiple character classes, tons of quests, a vast (and yet tiny looking) 2D world to explore, and most excitingly, 4 player online co-op.
Official description:
Blight the Horrible’s dragon army is seizing the land you once called home and the dethroned King Roland has selected you as one of the mighty heroes he believes can restore his kingdom before it is plunged into darkness forever. Build a custom Herian Hero and choose between five distinct character classes: Paladin, Ranger, Rogue, Wizard and Warlock before customizing your appearance and leveling up to unlock powerful new abilities and skills. Then, gather your closest warrior allies or journey alone to save the throne and put an end to Blight the Horrible’s takeover for good.
Hammerwatch II costs $24.99 on PlayStation 5, Switch, and Steam. Xbox and PlayStation 4 versions are planned for early 2024. The Chronicles Edition, meanwhile, sells for $39.99 and includes all three Hammerwatch games.
