Endless Legend 2 combines the expertise behind the ENDLESS games and Humankind to push turn-based strategy to new heights. 

Dive into Saiadha, a breathtaking yet perilous oceanic world where ever-changing seasons and monstrous tidefalls dramatically transform the landscape. As the water goes down, the environment itself becomes both an obstacle and a chance for discovery. Players will have to adapt to these constant shifts, confront ancient threats, and uncover the secrets buried deep within Saiadha. Each cataclysm brings new dangers, but also unique opportunities.

Step into a world where your choices matter.  Players need to lead their hero on epic journeys to conquer new territories, earn valuable experience, and build deep relationships with allies and rivals alike. Select from a variety of factions, each with their own distinct philosophies, strengths, and playstyles, offering a unique gameplay experience. The diversity of these factions is reflected in their asymmetric gameplay, ensuring that no two paths are the same.

Within cataclysms lie opportunities, within tidefalls lie dangers; be the one to emerge victorious, be the one to turn the tide.

Hooded Horse and Amplitude Studios are excited to announce the 1.0 launch date for Endless Legend 2!

It leaves early access on PC on September 17, 2026. At the same time, the game will be coming to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S consoles, and will also be getting a physical release on PS5!

As the 1.0 release dawns, new factions will enter the fray in a bid to make their mark on the crumbling oceanic paradise:

The mysterious Sandshapers emerge as the game’s sixth major faction. As the oldest civilization to inhabit Saiadha, they remember a time before the planet was covered by water, and it’s their sacred duty to terraform the planet back to the desert world it once was. As with all major empires in ENDLESS Legend 2, the Sandshapers bring a new faction quest to tell their story, along with new units, heroes, technologies, and traits, which will be available in the Custom Faction creator.

Meanwhile, Rogue Factions enter the fray as a new spin on existing factions. While these splinter groups share much with their predecessors, they will have their own distinct faction quest, story, and gameplay. The first two planned are the Order of Zelevas, a conquest-focused variant of the Kin of Sheredyn, and The Severed Claw, a version of the Necrophage that can only replace its losses by enslaving other factions.

Finally, the Mangrove of Harmony is a new, starfish-like minor faction developed in conjunction with the Amplitude community, featuring its own hero and questline, alongside new villages, recruitable units, a new population, and two hero skills, among other things.  

Anyone looking to try the game out can dive into the new and improved demo on Steam and consoles, which is back online from today and features the Kin of Sheredyn and The Last Lords as playable factions.

Endless Legend 2 is coming to PS5, Xbox SerieS X|S and PC (Steam / Epic Games Store / Microsoft Store) on September 17, 2026.
