Following a fairly standard period of Epic exclusivity, Studio 369’s Viking-themed action-RPG Rune II will be coming to Steam on November 13, 2020 as an extended Decapitation Edition. This new edition will offer plenty of new content, expanded and overhauled systems, and some significant performance improvements.
This announcement on the game’s website also lets us know that we’ll be able to complete the game’s campaign in singleplayer, but should you decide to engage in some co-op, there will be cross-play between Steam and Epic. There’s also a link to a roadmap there.
And here’s the official trailer:
And a quick overview of the Decapitation Edition improvements:
