Indie game favourite Nidhogg will look less abstract in its newly announced 2017 sequel. Developers Messhoff just revealed the game, titled… Nidhogg II, with a trailer and some PR-provided bullet points.
Said bullet points are as follows:
– Completely overhauled detailed environments and animations
– 10+ levels of fencing goodness
– Local and online multiplayer and tournament mode
– Play single-player against a series of AI opponents with occasional special challenge rounds
– New soundtrack featuring music by Mux Mool, Dose One, Daedelus and more!
The developers are promising “The same fast-paced hilarious stabby action you’re use to from the first Nidhogg, with more weapons, more music, more levels… and MORE FUN!”
