Rune II Coming to Steam Featuring Updated Narrative

A while back, we learned that the team responsible for keeping Rune II alive following Human Head Studios’ unexpected exodus was planning to overhaul the game’s narrative and add a bit more story to the otherwise senseless slaughter. We now know that this narrative update will be going live on September 9, 2020, and then in November, the game will be making its Steam debut.

There’s also this Gamescom trailer:

And a press release with some additional information:

Ragnarok Game LLC and developer Studio 369 revealed the new gameplay features for the upcoming Campaign Update for RUNE II, the definitive open-world RPG Viking adventure. The Campaign Update will launch September 9 and debuts the dungeons of Midgard, a skill tree system, Horde Events, and additional mythical creatures. With this update, an all-new, original main narrative will replace the old RUNE II storyline, introducing new characters, numerous quests, and an ending sequence fit for a legendary Viking saga. RUNE II is available now on the Epic Game Store and will be coming to Steam this November.

The Campaign Update is currently available on the PTR (Public Test Realm) server for all RUNE II players. More information on how to access the PTR server can be found HERE: rune2.com/ptr

RUNE II is the definitive open-world RPG adventure. Charge forth in this re-envisioned story of betrayal, rebirth, and revenge… and take down a god while you’re at it. Call upon the power of the Viking deities Odin, Hel, or Thor to bless your quest to take down the prankster god Loki. Explore an expanded Midgard world with buildable villages and loot-filled dungeons. Battle savage hordes of enemies from Norse legends alone or online with friends. Experience brand new gameplay features including a skill tree system, parry combat mechanics, and a revamped quest system.
