Greetings all Ratkind,
A great threat looms in the North, and all that stands in its way is one Rat, hardened by the harshest of environments. Set after the bloody conclusion of the original game, Tails of Iron 2: Whiskers of Winter sees Arlo, son of the Warden of the North, embark on a violent quest of ruthless revenge against the Dark Wings’ onslaught, while introducing new fearsome monster-hunting sidequests against gigantic beasts.

To aid in the pursuit of vengeance, Arlo can imbue his weapons with a range of new elemental effects and abilities, ensuring his success against the scum that plagues his lands. However, as a result of the chaos brought upon the North, Arlo must rebuild the Northern Garrison of Winter’s Edge with the use of the enhanced settlement mechanics. All the while, the region’s new protector must explore new and distinct areas of the frontier, home to a new cast of critters, some to ally with... others, to vanquish.
A new and violent ‘tail’ begins…
“We are delighted to finally announce our return to Ratdom with Tails of Iron 2: Whiskers of Winter, and start a new ‘tail’ of bloodshed and medieval revenge. We wanted to build upon what we achieved with the first instalment and create a game that was more than just a straightforward sequel,” said Jack Bennett, Co-founder and Lead Designer, Odd Bug Studio. “We took on board the incredible community feedback on the original game and set about crafting a more intense experience than its predecessor. The new gameplay mechanics, the addition of monster hunting sidequests, together with improved crafting and base building, all work together to make Arlo’s crusade in the northern wastelands even more epic than King Redgi’s.”
Tails of Iron 2: Whispers of Winter features:
- An expanded campaign of violence and revenge – Whiskers of Winter’s ‘tail’ of Arlo’s fight against the ferocious Dark Wing Bats is an intense experience, featuring a semi-open RPG world set across six varied biomes to explore, and new animal factions to discover.
- Challenging combat – Building upon the series’ trademark hardcore combat, Tails of Iron 2 features enhanced weapons gameplay, including four elemental effects (fire, ice, electricity, and poison) to imbue Arlo’s arsenal with unique abilities to use against foes.
- NEW Monster hunting gameplay – To tip the balance against the new fanged army of Dark Wing Bats, Arlo can track down and overcome 15 gigantic and challenging beasts to harvest their cadavers for rare upgrade materials.
- Improved base building – Construct and upgrade the devastated settlement of Winter’s Edge to gain access to more powerful items from the smithy, tastier meals at the kitchen, a wider range of powerful traps from the shop, and more!
- NEW Day and night system – Arlo will face different foes depending on the time of day, with more enemy types added as additional monsters are hunted down and vanquished.
