Fuga: Melodies of Steel 2 brings high drama May 11

Furry Fighters Return

Developer CyberConnect 2 has announced a release date for its turn-based strategy sequel Fuga: Melodies of Steel 2, this highly dramatic tale of war will open fire on PC and console platforms from May 11.

Fuga: Melodies of Steel 2 is the sequel to the tightly-held cult hit from 2021, and represents the fifth chapter of the Little Tail Bronx franchise, which details the trials and tribulations of an anthropomorphic cast of characters, waging war in a troubled steampunk universe. Melodies of Steel 2 will see the surviving crew members of the first title as they continue their journey through the battlefields of an alternate World War II — living out their lives in and around the aging battle tank, Taranis.

The original game was highly praised for its grim themes of loss, bravery, and sacrifice, portrayed by a cast of interesting characters and daubed in a fanciful art style. It is expected that Melodies of Steel 2 will retain the taut drama and never-say-die spirit of the original game, bolstered by improved and expanded combat mechanics, new characters, and hazardous new locales. One can likely assume that the powerful, all-consuming Soul Cannon will once again be ready to lock ‘n’ load. Wanna draw straws?

Fuga: Melodies of Steel 2 launches May 11 on PlayStation, PC, Xbox, and Nintendo Switch platforms. It will arrive on Xbox Game Pass on launch day. In addition, a Digital Deluxe Edition will feature a selection of bonus items, including a digital art book and soundtrack and a variety of alternate skins, in-game items, and a “Dummy Soul”, allowing for a single stay of execution when matters look bleakest.
