HARD WEST II announced for release this year

Underrated 2015 "weird west" tactics game Hard West is getting a sequel.


The sequel is being developed by Ice Code Games for publisher Good Shepherd Entertainment. Like the first game, it is a supernatural Western using turn-based combat reminiscent of the XCOM series. The sequel will apparently introduce ideas such as "active combat," using the turn-based battles to depict horse chases, stagecoach robberies and combat involving trains.

Original developers CreativeForge Games, who also created Phantom Doctrine and are now working on a StarGate game, Timekeepers, are involved as advisors and technical assistance.

The game is projected for release later this year.
