Hard West II to launch on PS5 and Xbox Series on November 10

Originally released for PC via Steam on August 4, 2022, Hard West II is now expanding its reach to the next generation of consoles. The upcoming release brings the tactical, occult-infused frontier experience to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series players later this month.

A Tale of Outlaws and Dark Magic

The game follows Gin Carter, a legendary outlaw on a mission to rob the mysterious "Ghost Train." However, the journey quickly shifts from a simple heist to a desperate struggle for survival as players navigate a wasteland where revolver bullets collide with dark magic drawn from forgotten tales. Players must lead a posse through diverse environments—from snow-covered vistas to frontier towns—making brutal choices that carry gruesome consequences.

Tactical Combat and the Bravado Mechanic

At its core, Hard West II focuses on tactical, turn-based combat. Players command a group of gunslingers, each possessing unique abilities that can be enhanced through special combinations of mysterious cards. A standout feature is the Bravado mechanic: defeating enemies allows players to enter a Bravado State, replenishing Action Points and enabling spectacular, chained kill sequences that bolster the reputation of your legendary gunslinger.

Managing Your Posse

Leadership in the Weird West comes with heavy responsibilities. Players must manage a growing posse of outlaws, teleporting witches, and other supernatural beings. Decisions made during the journey impact the group's cohesion; the right choices can earn Loyalty Points and unlock new skills, while poor decisions can test the commitment of your companions.

• Dynamic environments featuring shootouts, horseback chases, and train robberies.
• Customization through mysterious playing cards to build poker hands for your posse.
• A blend of traditional Western themes with occult and demonic elements.
