Daedalic sent us a press release today, announcing the release of the second episode in their series of videos about the new features of Blackguards 2. This episode discusses the game's new strategic layer, including the mercenary recruitment mechanic and defense missions. It also describes some of the streamlining introduced to the game's systems ("simple misses are a thing of the past") and the new Endurance mechanic.


Besides that, there have also been a handful of Blackguards 2 previews published over the past week, at sites such as Softpedia, Entertainment Buddha and BioGamer Girl. Our own much angrier preview, courtesy of Darth Roxor, is on the way, so stay tuned.
