Tails of Iron II: Whiskers of Winter summons some courage and will release earlier than planned

United Label and developer Odd Bug Studio have announced that Tails of Iron 2: Whiskers of Winter will release earlier than planned, as the game has been given a January 28 release date, rather than the expected February date.

There was no new trailer for the news, so check out the gameplay reveal from a few months ago.

Set after the bloody conclusion of the original, Whiskers of Winter sees Arlo embark on a violent quest of ruthless revenge against the Dark Wings’ onslaught, while introducing new fearsome monster-hunting sidequests against gigantic beasts. The young rat can also imbue his weapons with a range of new elemental effects and abilities, helping him slaughter foes standing in his way. Enhanced settlement mechanics allows Arlo to rebuild the Rats’ northern garrison of Winter’s Edge, while its new protector explores new and distinct areas of the frontier home to a cast of critters, some to ally with… others to vanquish.

Digital pre-orders are available now for consoles in both standard and Deluxe editions. Pre-orders include a 20% discount for Xbox consoles and Switch, as well as for PlayStation consoles for PlayStation Plus subscribers. The Deluxe Edition includes the following two content packs:

  • Augur of the Draugr Pack – Features exclusive items, including three new helms, three armors, and three pauldrons, together with three new shields and three new axes.

  • Hair to the Throne Pack – An exclusive collection of six beards and hairstyles to further customize Arlo’s battle-readiness.

The game is coming to PC, PlayStation, Xbox and Switch.
