Once you’ve plucked your wannabe hero from the three that are on offer you’re then thrust into the world of Nostria in a bid to make a name for yourself while trying to make sense of the numerous threats that plague the land.
Leveraging a mix of third-person action RPG tropes and turn-based combat, King’s Bounty II has you choosing from a trio of heroes each with their own class types, strengths, weaknesses, abilities and perks.
