After a nearly-two-decade-long hiatus, THQ Nordic has blown fans away with the eagerly anticipated announcement of Titan Quest 2.
With a story deeply entrenched in the realms of Greek mythology, this sequel promises to rekindle the heart and soul of the original while infusing it with a dash of modern gaming elements.
Today, as the echoes of the past reverberate in the gaming community, the sequel emerges, promising an epic mixture of both myth and adventure. Set against the backdrop of an expansive, handcrafted open-world environment - equipped with day-night and weather cycles - Titan Quest 2 is an ARPG's dream come true.
It was in 2006 that the first Titan Quest title came into the limelight. Designed as a point-and-click adventure game, it garnered a positive reception and set the benchmark for what a classic-style ARPG should be. Plenty of fans have fond memories of navigating through the nuances of Ancient Greece, Egypt, and China, battling chthonic beasts and challenging the gods themselves.
The sequel runs on the power-packed Unreal Engine 5, which in itself is a testament to the visual marvels awaiting the players. But what sets it apart is the narrative. This time, players find themselves pitted against the formidable Nemesis, the goddess of retribution. From the looks of it, she's had a change of heart, meddling with the Threads of Fate as she threatens to cast the world into chaos.
