Former capital of the Astrian civilisation, the city is now ruled by the Merchant Congregation. Strongly impacted by the Malichor epidemic, the mysterious plague ravaging the continent of Gacane, Peren is also the scene of numerous political intrigues: be careful not to get caught up in the nobles’ dark schemes...  More details are available in the blog article dedicated to Peren.

Revised combat system and difficulty modes for an adventure tailored to your play style
The combat system in GreedFall 2 has been reworked to better suit your play style, with three distinct modes that can be selected at any time. For strategists, Tactical mode offers total control over the battlefield and the camera, allowing you to optimally micro-manage your companions' actions and making greater use of the tactical pause system. Conversely, Focused mode allows you to focus on your character and stay in heat of the action, letting the AI constantly manage your allies and limiting the use of the tactical pause. Finally, Hybrid mode offers a balanced experience, providing partial control over the camera and tactical pause.

In addition, three difficulty modes, adjustable from the game options, allow you to experience the adventure at your own pace. Fans of challenging strategic combat can opt for Tactical mode, while those who prefer focusing on the storytelling will choose Story mode, which greatly facilitates combat. Finally, Adventure mode offers players a balanced level of difficulty. More details are available here.
 
Furthermore, this update includes numerous improvements and new features:
  • New side quests and events have been added to enrich your adventure.
  • Improved crafting: new crafting skills give you more options and control to manage and enhance your gear more efficiently.
  • Refined character creation system: the avatar customisation tool has been extensively redesigned, allowing you to modify many facial and body features to create a unique character.
  • Addition of a Photo Mode: highly requested by the community, this feature allows you to capture memorable moments and breathtaking landscapes from your adventure
  • Optimisation, visual improvements and Quality of Life: enjoy a smoother and more detailed experience thanks to numerous fixes and various graphical, performance and Quality of Life improvements.

GreedFall 2: The Dying World is a narrative RPG which starts three years before the events of the first game. This time, you play as a native of Teer Fradee, uprooted by force from your island and taken to the continent of Gacane, the homeland of the renaigsa (‘foreigners’ in Yecht Fradí, the native language of Teer Fradee). In this old world in a constant state of conflict, and ravaged by the Malichor plague and by the political scheming of various factions, you must regain your freedom and forge your own destiny. Tackle each challenge you face through diplomacy, cunning or your combat skills, and alongside your new-found allies, put an end to the dark schemes that threaten the continent and your island.

GreedFall 2: The Dying World is currently available in early access on PC (Steam), and will launch on PlayStation®5 and Xbox Series X|S in 2026, when the game fully comes out of early access.
