It’s less than a week until you can finally get your hands on Endless Legend 2, and we’re excited for you to experience it and to hear what you think about it! But there are a few things we’d like you to know before you dive in and start playing.
First, let’s take a look at the expected hardware requirements for Endless Legend 2:
Now, there are some questions that we’ve been asked many times in the last few months, so we compiled the answers to these questions here so you can find them easily. If we notice any other recurring questions, we’ll update this FAQ.
FAQ
How many playable factions will be in the game?
We are starting Early Access with five playable factions, and will be adding a sixth in the coming months.
The currently available factions are:
Will the game have multiplayer?
Yes, but the multiplayer will not be available at the start Early Access. We want to take more time to work on it and will release it in an update within the coming months.
What feedback did you get on the Demo, and how will your address it?
We will talk about this in a few days, when our game director Derek Paxton will release a blog about the “State of the Game.”
What are your plans for Early Access?
We will talk about our plans for Early Access a few days after release, because we want to take your feedback into account for those plans.
I’ve explored my whole island. Where can I find ships and other naval technologies?
Endless Legend 2 does not feature any naval technologies or gameplay, as periodically the sea levels will drop to reveal new land and new connections between players.
Will the game be available on Steam Deck?
We’d like to support Steam Deck, but this won’t be ready at the start of Early Access. The game does run on Steam Deck but will need more work to be properly verified.
Will the game have controller support?
Yes, we want to support using a gamepad on PC, but we cannot say yet when this would be available.
Can we get an option for properly sequential turns?
While we understand the request for this option, unfortunately no. The simultaneous turn structure is too deeply part of EL2 to easily change it. We will however take steps to alleviate frustrations with the AI interrupting your actions.
Will the game have hotseat multiplayer?
Unfortunately no. As explained above, adding the sequential turns necessary for this style of multiplayer is not feasible.
Will there be an in-game encyclopedia?
We don’t have plans to add an encyclopedia in game.
Will the game use Denuvo?
No, we are not planning to use Denuvo.
Will the game support modding?
We would like to support modding, but the extent of the modding capabilities has not been decided yet.
How much will the game cost? Can I pre-order?
There will be no pre-orders, and the price will be revealed at Early Access launch.
