### About Dark Deity 2
*Dark Deity* is back! A quarter of a century has passed as Irving and the Eternal Order carefully rebuilt Verroa to protect it against a future war. However, their efforts will be put to the test far too soon as a new threat looms on the horizon.
The neighboring Holy Asverellian Empire is seeking new lands to expand, and the fractious, fragile Verroa seems ripe for the taking. Standing in its way are the Order and twenty scrappy heroes-to-be.
Take command of the Eternal Delegation, led by Irving’s descendants Gwyn and Riordian. They must navigate the treacherous politics of Verroa and weave a web of alliances to turn the tide of the coming war. Your decisions will shape these alliances and define your army. With a massive pool of customizations, no two playthroughs will ever feel the same.
Put simply, *Dark Deity 2* is about playing your way, all the way.

### Strategize and Prevail
Turn-based tactical combat lies at the heart of *Dark Deity 2*. Your 20 heroes have access to 45 branching classes, each with unique abilities, passive effects, and tactical roles.
But it doesn’t stop there: by experimenting with skills, abilities, and gear, you can completely change how a unit performs on the battlefield, allowing you to upend your tactics in exciting new ways.
As your heroes fight against overwhelming odds, they will form powerful bonds. Hardship may forge these bonds stronger—or it could destroy friendships and wreak havoc. Can you maintain the delicate balance?

### Make Your Decisions Wisely
*Dark Deity 2* is a desperate defense against a formidable foe. Verroa is gripped by war fever, panic, and factional strife, with traitors lurking around every corner.
To win, you’ll have to make difficult choices: decide who to support, and who to throw to the wolves. But choose carefully—your decisions can drastically change the battles ahead.
No two playthroughs are the same; what succeeds in one game may fail catastrophically in another.

### Twist the Threads of Destiny
While every playthrough is unique, you can push *Dark Deity 2* even further. Inspired by community-made randomizers for popular RPGs, the game features a built-in comprehensive randomizer and campaign customization suite right from launch.
