Book of Lore Chapter 5
We are also thrilled to reveal Book of Lore 5! This Book of Lore gives you an insight into the game's new campaign structure to show how you'll be traversing through Fahrul when your adventure begins. We'll also be taking you on a journey to discover the enemies and bosses that you'll be valiantly facing on your journey.
⚔️ New multi-chapter campaign that spans over 5 adventures!
We have re-imagined a new way of playing For The King that will make your playthroughs more enjoyable and more rewarding, whether you play as a hardened Blacksmiths or a quick-witted Scholar.
In For the King 1, the main campaign spans around 9 hours of gameplay from beginning to end, a long journey which always makes starting from scratch really difficult to bear when your party inevitably meets a sticky end! In For The King II, we have extended the main campaign to over 30 hours, but have also broken this up into 5 adventure chapters, each progressing the narrative of the campaign. So, for example, when you complete chapter 1 you unlock chapter 2, enabling you to begin your next session from that chapter.
We hope that with this new campaign style, you will have more flexibility in how you and your friends play, gaining the satisfaction of completing shorter adventure chapters whilst also having a much longer challenge across the entire campaign.
At the beginning of each chapter you start with a new party and loadout enabling you to try new classes and traits as you play through the entire campaign, tailoring your party's capabilities to the challenge at hand. Whilst each chapter has its own objectives, mechanics and unique narrative, just like For The King 1 - you will want to go back and replay chapters to discover weapons, items and character classes to expand your Lore Store unlocks and starting loadouts.
⚔️ The fearsome foes of Fahrul
With each new chapter also comes a boss requiring your steely determination to conquer. You'll be fighting familiar foes as well as brand new adversaries with never-seen-before abilities that will truly test your fortitude, alone and as a party.
These boss battles are now multi-stage affairs, adding even more depth and excitement to each and every encounter. Prepare to fight for survival across several stages of combat, each escalating in difficulty compared to the last.
Some of these powerful foes possess the ability to summon waves of new enemies, ensuring your battles become ever more intense and volatile; whilst others use their size to dominate the battle grid.
One such aquatic antagonist sure to make waves that you may remember from For The King - is the Kraken! This colossal sucker will test your mettle like never before, promising you and your companions a battle so epic, your titanic exploits will make a monstrous splash in the annals of Fahrulian history.
There are also many more over-zealous villains waiting to be squished that we can't wait for you to meet, including one ultimate boss who lies in wait for you...
⚔️Play your way
If the bosses are proving too difficult or if you're slaying enemies without breaking a sweat, don't worry! You can now adjust the difficulty and starting settings of each chapter, enabling you to tailor your adventure to your skill level.
In For The King II you can play how you want to play, if you don't like how you have completed a chapter, go back and revisit it, explore further, fight in a different way; and ultimately unlock more shiny rewards. Once you're happy with your progress, move forward to the next chapter until you are swamped in glory and renown!
For now, so long, the Resistance has sent out its call and we must answer - will you join us in the fight for Fahrul's freedom?
Begin your adventure, November 2nd!
