Incredible and overlooked soulslike gets a huge sequel you can try now

Rats are often overlooked as ugly pests, but they're smart, determined, and in Tails of Iron 2: Whiskers of Winter, capable of soulslike combat. This sequel to the beloved Tails of Iron has the rats taking on armies of bats, with the flying foes adding a new level of difficulty to the already tough fights. Think Elden Ring, Dark Souls, and Bloodborne, but with a supremely stylish rodential twist.

Giant Monster Hunting Side Quests
Unfortunately, or fortunately for those brave enough, there are a plethora of gigantic beasts to hunt down - each with their own distinct battle styles and challenges, requiring all your whit and battle prowess to overcome. However, if you choose to track and slay these beasts you will not go unrewarded for each foe you fell, you will be able to harvest the spoils of their carcasses for rare upgrade materials.

Grapple Hook
With Tails of Iron 2 we wanted to make traveling feel more fluid, adding not only speed but verticality to the map, with the use of a grapple hook - but fret not, you will also find the grapple hook will come handy when performing final executions.

Base building
As you can see Winters Edge took a hit with the last attack from the Dark Wings, your task as the new Warden of the Wastes is to rebuild your settlement - doing so will allow access to an upgraded smithy, tastier meals at the kitchen, alongside a wider range of powerful traps from the shop!


We hope to see you in the Wastes soon, our loyal rodents!

TAILS OF IRON 2: WHISKERS OF WINTER ANNOUNCEMENT


[h3]Greetings all Ratkind,[/h3]
A great threat looms in the North, and all that stands in its way is one Rat, hardened by the harshest of environments. Set after the bloody conclusion of the original game, Tails of Iron 2: Whiskers of Winter sees Arlo, son of the Warden of the North, embark on a violent quest of ruthless revenge against the Dark Wings’ onslaught, while introducing new fearsome monster-hunting sidequests against gigantic beasts.

To aid in the pursuit of vengeance, Arlo can imbue his weapons with a range of new elemental effects and abilities, ensuring his success against the scum that plagues his lands. However, as a result of the chaos brought upon the North, Arlo must rebuild the Northern Garrison of Winter’s Edge with the use of the enhanced settlement mechanics. All the while, the region’s new protector must explore new and distinct areas of the frontier, home to a new cast of critters, some to ally with... others, to vanquish.

A new and violent ‘tail’ begins…

“We are delighted to finally announce our return to Ratdom with Tails of Iron 2: Whiskers of Winter, and start a new ‘tail’ of bloodshed and medieval revenge. We wanted to build upon what we achieved with the first instalment and create a game that was more than just a straightforward sequel,” said Jack Bennett, Co-founder and Lead Designer, Odd Bug Studio. “We took on board the incredible community feedback on the original game and set about crafting a more intense experience than its predecessor. The new gameplay mechanics, the addition of monster hunting sidequests, together with improved crafting and base building, all work together to make Arlo’s crusade in the northern wastelands even more epic than King Redgi’s.”
