Odd Bug Studio have revealed that Tails of Iron 2: Whiskers of Winter will be releasing in February 2025 and there's a brand new trailer. I'm really excited for this one, the artwork is gorgeous. It was originally planned for later this year but they said the new date "ensures we can provide the very best experience possible".

As for the new trailer it shows off some fresh gameplay that showcases " Arlo’s brutal journey of survival and revenge" and that the "Viking-esque aesthetic of this new story is emphasized by Fever Ray’s haunting 2008 track, ‘If I Had a Heart’ – we think it’s a fitting accompaniment to the harsh and unforgiving world Arlo must navigate through in the game".

More about it: "Set in the aftermath of the original game’s southern war between Rat and Frog, Tails of Iron 2: Whiskers of Winter builds upon its predecessor’s foundations, introducing all-new monster hunting against the gigantic beats of the North, while also elevating the franchise’s critically-acclaimed combat system with a number of new gameplay features. Also returning to the series are the distinctive, gruff tones of multi-award-winning voice actor, Doug Cockle (The Witcher 3, Baldur’s Gate 3, Alan Wake 2) who once again narrates Arlo’s campaign of bloody revenge."

There's something I like about the contrast between the unrelentingly grim tone of the game itself, and a title like "Whiskers of Winter" which cracks me up.

Do I hear the Vikings theme song in the background of that trailer?
