"Hammerwatch II's journey to Xbox has been long and perilous. After first launching on Steam in the fall of 2023, the game finally turned up on PlayStation 5 last December. Since then, Xbox gamers who enjoyed the original Hammerwatch and the sublime Heroes of Hammerwatch have been anxiously awaiting their turn at the long-promised sequel. At last, the wait is nearly over because Hammerwatch II will hit Xbox and PlayStation 4 on April 23," says Co-Optimus.
Previously only available on PC through Steam, Hammerwatch II now releases on Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation.
HPP: "Ultimately, Hammerwatch II makes too many poor design choices for me to recommend it to most players. There’s a good game in here somewhere, but it's buried under too many flaws."
Hammerwatch II is a nostalgic throwback to days of golden ARPGs that sadly fails at the core component of gaming, having fun.
