DEVELOPMENT HISTORY

Spirit of the North 2 — is a continuation of the famous adventure game Spirit of the North, developed by the studio Infuse Studio and published merge games. The game was first revealed in October 2023 and is expected to be released on platforms PC, PS5and Xbox Series X / S. Spirit of the North 2 continues the story, but now players take on the role of a new fox who travels with a wise raven, seeking to return the lost guardians and free them from the dark shaman Grimnir.

SOTN2 Win64 Shipping 2024 10 21 10 16 08 586

The main idea behind the development was to create a large-scale open world that would take players to ancient lands left in ruins. Throughout the game, you will have to go through many trials, uncover the secrets of this world and fight ancient enemies. The developers drew inspiration from Scandinavian mythology, which adds a unique atmosphere and depth to the game. The story of the game is built around redemption and restoration of the disturbed balance of nature, which also emphasizes the importance of unity with nature and spiritual harmony.

SOTN2 Win64 Shipping 2024 10 21 10 32 13 171

Spirit of the North 2 is designed to complement and expand the universe of the original game, deepening its lore and adding new elements, such as interaction with a new companion - the raven. During the journey, players will be able to encounter new types of guardians and ancient artifacts that help on the path to saving this world.

GRAPHICS

Spirit of the North 2 uses engine Unreal Engine 5, which allowed the developers to create stunning visual effects and rich detailing of the game world. One of the key features of the graphic component is the use of Lumen — global illumination technology, which makes the environment more realistic, adding volumetric lighting effects and realistic shadows. The engine allows you to show picturesque views of the ancient world, which can be explored freely: from snow-capped peaks to dense forests and dark dungeons.

Each region of the world has its own unique visual identity, filled with secrets and challenges to overcome. Shadows, light, changing weather conditions and time of day - all this has been implemented with a high degree of attention to detail, which creates a truly exciting and immersive experience. The graphics emphasize the dark, but at the same time beautiful atmosphere of the game, where each element interacts with the player and complements the overall picture.

Additionally, Spirit of the North 2 provides the ability to customize the appearance of your fox, which adds personalization and makes the game unique for each player. Players can find and activate ancient runes that enhance their abilities and help them overcome difficulties along the way. These runes and artifacts not only add variety to the gameplay, but also emphasize the magical nature of the world, where mysticism is closely intertwined with reality.

GAME ENGINE

Game Spirit of the North 2 developed using the engine Unreal Engine 5, which ensures high performance and allows developers to bring their ambitious ideas to life. Using this engine opens up wide opportunities for developers to create an interactive game world with realistic effects and rich lighting. Spirit of the North 2 places an emphasis on exploration and interaction with the environment. Players can explore an open world, interact with objects, and find ways to solve many mysteries.

SOTN2 Win64 Shipping 2024 10 21 21 21 15 697

One of the central mechanics is traveling with a companion, a raven, who helps in solving puzzles and fighting enemies. This mechanic adds depth to the game, as it requires players to interact not only with the environment but also with the companion, making the gameplay more tactical. Players can command the raven to activate objects, distract enemies, or help in exploring hard-to-reach areas.

SOTN2 Win64 Shipping 2024 10 21 21 22 54 129

The combat mechanics have also been significantly improved. Throughout the game, you will encounter various guardians that need to be freed, and each of these opponents requires a unique approach. The developers have implemented puzzle mechanics that integrate with the combat system, making each battle strategic. Players will have to use not only strength, but also intelligence to overcome difficulties and achieve victory.

SOTN2 Win64 Shipping 2024 10 21 21 23 21 413

Additionally, the game world is filled with ancient artifacts and runes that players can find and use to enhance their abilities. This creates an additional element of customization, allowing players to choose which abilities and enhancements they want to develop. This way, each player can customize their character to suit their playstyle, making each playthrough unique.

DIFFERENT QUALITY MODES

Minimum settings: At minimum settings, the game offers basic texture detail and reduced lighting effects. The system displays simple but fairly clear environmental textures, but lighting and shadow effects look less realistic, which somewhat reduces the overall atmosphere.

Maximum settings: At maximum graphics settings, the game demonstrates high detail of objects, realistic dynamic lighting and depth of shadows. Post-processing effects such as sun glare, fog and reflections significantly improve the visual perception of the game world, making it more immersive.

In the video card test, the default resolution is 1920x1080; other resolutions are added and removed manually. You can also remove and add any positions of video cards. You can also select any of our test processors from the list in the drop-down menu, comparing its performance with the given video card tests (by default, the most productive solution is selected). The test is carried out on the most powerful CPU in this game and is scaled to other processors, taking into account their testing on NVIDIA and AMD video cards.
