Wolcen Studio will initially release the sequel to Wolcen: Lords of Mayhem, through Early Access.

Many years after Wolcen: Lords of Mayhem, you will return to a world on the brink of collapse. Master brutal combat, build your character without fixed classes, combine skills and gear, and unleash your Shadow Form in this dark fantasy action RPG. Play alone or cooperatively. In the years since the events of Wolcen: Lords of Mayhem, the world has been pushed to the brink of destruction. Forced out of exile, the Warlord — a bastard son of the Shadow God — and his companions become embroiled in a prophecy that promises salvation for the world but demands sacrifice. On their quest to save reality, the Warlord and his allies, including veterans from the original game, must accept their fate — or reject it entirely. Enter a grim, dark fantasy world shaped by reality-bending powers, a quest for freedom, and meaningful choices. Face horrors beyond the rift alone or with up to four players in co-op.

There are no predefined classes. Your weapons unlock skills, and modifiers, specializations, and a vast passive tree let you customize those abilities. Build a melee mage, spellblade, tank caster, gunslinger, or an entirely new archetype. Your identity evolves through the choices you make. Fast, rhythmic combat pits you against evolving combinations of melee attackers, ranged threats, and powerful enemies. Chain skills together, tear through dense packs, and face brutal bosses. When the odds turn against you, unleash your Shadow Form, transform, and overwhelm your enemies to become the darkness that even demons fear.

Your skills, weapons, passive abilities, and equipment are designed to work together. Hunt for items that define your build, gather materials, and craft what your character needs. Experiment with mechanical synergies that can alter your fighting style, and take advantage of clear, structured systems that help you understand and refine every build. In your Conquest, you are in a world where factions continue to fight for territory and power across dynamically assembled battlefields. The Tower of Wonders lets you hunt for specific rewards while influencing the difficulty and outcome of each ascent. Both modes support continued power growth, new builds, and long-term item collection.

Wolcen II is planned to enter Early Access on PC in 2027. Development will focus on balance, performance, polish, and player feedback. The full release is planned for PC and current-generation consoles, followed by additional story content, activities, and optional cosmetics designed to expand the world, systems, and endgame over time.

Wolcen II will therefore first be released in early access for PC next year. While current-generation consoles haven’t been specified yet, it may be coming to the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series.
