Rodent-positive action-RPG Tails of Iron 2 releases in February

United Label and Odd Bug Studio have announced that Tails of Iron 2: Whiskers of Winter, the sequel to their 2021 action-RPG, will be released in February 2025 for PC and consoles. This is technically a delay from their planned 2024 release, but only slightly.For some reason, rodents make the best fantasy protagonists, as proven by Redwall and Ghost of a Tale. Writing for Destructoid at the time, Chris Moyse gave the first Tails of Iron a 7.5 in a review laced with praise, calling it “one of the year’s most distinctive RPG experiences.”Tails of Iron 2: Whiskers of Winter moves the action far to the north. You play as Arlo, “heir to the Warden of the Wastes.” The game is a sidescrolling, soulslike, dark fantasy game. After the Frog/Rat war, Bats rise up as a threat. Arlo has to travel the northern wastes in an effort to “Hunt down giant beasts. Unite disparate clans. Upgrade your settlement. And discover a terrible secret of blood and crown...” Rad.https://youtu.be/Sg5FBayiuWc?feature=sharedMoyse’s review got me interested in Tails of Iron, but I have to be honest with you: it occupies this space that is high enough to make me consider buying it but low enough on my priorities where I’m not sure I’ll ever play it. The side-scroller genre is so packed these days. I can barely even look at a game with “metroidvania” in the description. I don’t hate these types of games; it’s just that I’ve played so many of them throughout my life that it’s hard to get excited. I don’t have time between games that have seized my attention anymore. Once I finish one, it’s onto another. Though, truly, I’m often playing multiple games in tandem; alternating between them.What I’m saying is that Tails of Iron 2: Whiskers of Winter looks great. You should play it, and then I’ll live vicariously through your experience.Tails of Iron 2 releases in February 2025 for Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PS4, PS5, Switch, and PC.The post Rodent-positive action-RPG Tails of Iron 2 releases in February appeared first on Destructoid.
