Here are the key features of The Banner Saga 2:

- The epic Viking saga continues on - beautifully 2D hand drawn combat sequences and animations are further enhanced with special effects, once again accompanied by an evocative score from Grammy-nominated composer Austin Wintory

- Player choice that continues to drive your narrative – your story continues based on choices made in the first game as well as hard choices you have to make in this one.

- New Characters and a New Race – continue your epic journey interacting with new characters and a new race, the Horseborn.

- Improved Strategic combat with consequences – improved, more strategic battle boards enhance combat and permanent loss of characters will still weigh heavy on your mind long after the battle is over.

- The journey is as important as battle – your role in building and managing your caravan as you travel the vast landscape is critical to not only your own survival but the survival of an entire civilization.
