  • The game features a Teer Fradee native on the colonist's continent of Gacane. While it takes place before GreedFall, Jehanne describes the game as "another story in the same world" rather than a "prequel".
  • Some characters from the original title may appear as 'cameos', but Jehanne emphasizes this a new story.
  • Like the first game, all companion characters are tied to a faction, and there are new factions.
  • Some characters may not accompany you depending on choices made.
  • There are romances.
  • Combat is more tactical (but not strictly 'turn-based'), where you control four characters instead of "a character followed by two companions".
  • The adventure is non-linear, with different outcomes and consequences.
  • The game is not open-world, but more open region, like the first game.
  • A photo mode is planned, but won't be in the initial Early Access.
  • A gameplay reveal will come in the months before Early Access launch.

Developed by Spiders, another Nacon studio, the narrative RPG GreedFall II announced its release on early access for Steam in summer 2024, with an epic new trailer. After a successful first episode which brought in a community of more than 2 million, GreedFall II gives players the chance to revisit this unique world, and play as a Teer Fradee native snatched from his native island and taken to Gacane, the homeland of the settlers.

The story starts three years before the events of the first game and the adventures of De Sardet.

This time you play as a native of Teer Fradee, uprooted by force from your island and taken to the continent of Gacane, where the colonists are from. In this old world ravaged by war and scarred by the Malichor plague and the political scheming of the different factions, you need to regain your freedom and control of your own destiny. Using diplomacy, cunning or combat, as well as help from allies you make, it's up to you to end one man's ambitions of conquest, which could spell the end for the continent and your island.

Experience the unique world of GreedFall again by exploring the old continent! Travel across new landscapes, from Olima – the city of stars of the Bridge Alliance – to the shores of Uxantis, and uncover the secrets of these ancient lands. Meet all the factions that share control over these nations and navigate the treacherous waters of their schemes and conspiracies.

Create your own character and find allies to join your team. Help them with their quests, uncover their secrets and make them your friends, rivals or even lovers. As well as equipping them the way you want, you can also take control of them in combat.

Immerse yourself in an ever deeper RPG experience where every choice has an impact on your adventure and where diplomacy, manipulation, infiltration and combat are all viable paths for you to achieve your aims.
