For PC and Xbox gamers with diverse gaming tastes, Xbox Game Pass offers a treasure trove of titles. With hundreds of games accessible at any time, the subscription service eliminates the need to purchase each game individually. Like other subscription services, Game Pass regularly refreshes its content, and December brings an exciting addition: For the King II.
Developed by Iron Oak Games, the For the King franchise debuted in September 2019 with critical and player acclaim. Blending tabletop and roguelite elements, the original RPG allowed for both solo and multiplayer cooperative play, captivating RPG enthusiasts. Building on this success, Iron Oak released the sequel, For the King II, on Steam in November 2023.
For the King II refines and expands upon its predecessor, retaining beloved features while introducing new ones. The turn-based combat system returns, but with an expanded party size of up to four players, enhancing the tabletop RPG experience. The sequel also incorporates grid-based combat, allowing for AOE attacks and deeper interaction with the game world.
Embark on a New Adventure with For the King II on Game Pass
Iron Oak Games recently announced For the King II‘s arrival on Xbox Game Pass on December 12th, 2024, further enriching the platform’s RPG offerings. This marks the franchise’s debut on the subscription service, providing a convenient entry point for new players.
The Game Pass version benefits from a year of updates and improvements on Steam, incorporating features like Infinite Dungeon Mode and a range of cosmetic items not available at launch. This ensures an optimized and feature-rich experience for subscribers.
A Standalone Story of Rebellion and Restoration
For the King II offers a standalone narrative within the D&D-inspired world, requiring no prior experience with the first game.

As members of the resistance, players must journey across the diverse biomes of Fahrul to dethrone the queen and restore balance to the realm.
