GreedFall 2: The Dying World is the second installment of the Greedfall video game series.
Announcement[]
Greedfall 2 was announced on May 18, 2022 with a trailer[1]. The video shows what seems to be an old acquaintance of ours from Greedfall, and a group of members of the Bridge Alliance attacking some natives. Shortly after, we see the inside of a ship from a jail, reaching the old continent.
Development[]
On May 18, 2022 Greedfall 2: The Dying World was announced for the first time in a teaser. In the description of that video it was stated that the game was planned for release in 2024.[2]
In February 29, 2024 a cinematic trailer called "The Uprooting" was published during Nacon Connect 2024, announcing its early access release on steam in summer 2024.[3] The game wants to be more focused on exploring the "dying continent" of Gacane and its nations plagued with the malichore, and apparently even the gameplay will slightly change from the first title, since we won't simply control a character followed by companions, but we will control four characters at the same time with a more tactical combat. [4]
On March 7, 2024 it was published an article on Steam with FAQ about the upcoming early access of the game, where it was stated that in the game there will be more companions than Greedfall 1 and more romances to unfold. The article explains why they decided to have an early access, and the content of the early access. [5]
On April 15, 2024 Nacon opened a closed playtest to try out a glimpse of the game before the actual early access. Players could try to participate in the playtest by filling out a form. The playtest closed on May.
On May 16, 2024 a new trailer was announced called "Doneigada" that includes a bit of gameplay.
On June 11, 2024 they officially announced the date of the early access release, that will be on September 24.[6]
Plot[]
"The story starts three years before the events of the first game and the adventures of De Sardet.
This time you play as a native of Teer Fradee, uprooted by force from your island and taken to the continent of Gacane, where the colonists are from. In this old world ravaged by war and scarred by the Malichor plague and the political scheming of the different factions, you need to regain your freedom and control of your own destiny. Using diplomacy, cunning or combat, as well as help from allies you make, it's up to you to end one man's ambitions of conquest, which could spell the end for the continent and your island."
From the official description of Greedfall 2 [7] we get to know that this time we will travel through the old continent, from Olima - the city of stars of the Bridge Alliance - to Uxantis, and much more. We will find again the factions that control the different nations, and it seems that we will get to navigate as well.
Companions[]
