Blackguards 2 has finally launched on PC and to celebrate Daedalic Entertainment has released a launch trailer and sent us a bevy of screenshots to get you in the sRPG mood. So if you like some Strategy dashed into your Role Playing Game, check out Blackguards 2 and see if it’s you’re cup of tea. The game is out on Steam, GOG and other Digital Retail spaces for $29.99/£22.99/€29.99/499 RUR/2,980 Yen and the game is even localized in English and German along with having subtitles for Spanish, French, Russian, Polish, Italian, Brazilian Portuguese, Japanese and Korean. It’s always good to hear companies opening up their games to as many nationalities as possible.
Is it any good? I have no idea, 103 Steam reviews sit at a mixed state right now. The top two negative reviews focus on the little bugs the game has to keep it from being great and the reviewers feel that the team hasn’t really changed anything for the better since the original Blackguards a year ago. The top two positive reviews seem to point out changes that were made like improvements to combat, more interactions with NPCs and better customization but do still note the game is buggy and balancing is needed badly. Maybe with a few patches down the line it will go from mixed to very positive.
