Dive Into The Story Of ‘SteamWorld Heist II’
by Sage Ashford
The folks over at Thunderful Games have released a new trailer for the upcoming SteamWorld Heist II, offering a deep dive into the story mode. It presents basic information about Captain Leeway and his gang of robots, a group trying to learn about the mysteries of the ocean while dodging the Royal Navy. The second half of the trailer, though, focuses on what exploration of the game’s overworld looks like, showing several areas and the potential for undersea gameplay.
The Steam page offers more detail on the game:
PLOT
As Captain, you hold the fate of your crew in your hands. Equip them with different weapons, customise their abilities and equipment, and use the rich job system to overcome any challenge that comes your way. From seasoned veterans to eager recruits, your crew looks to you for guidance as you navigate the dangers of the Great Sea.
PLUNDER
Set sail and explore the vast ocean blue, where adventure, mystery, and danger await beyond each breaking wave… Engage in real-time naval combat, raid enemy bases and seize valuable loot to bolster your crew’s strength. And when the battles are won, take respite at one of the lively bars where you can relax, upgrade your gear and crew, and forge new alliances with fellow bots.
SteamWorld Heist II launches for PlayStation and Xbox consoles, Nintendo Switch and Steam on August 8th.
