Announced at the Future Games Show, Tails of Iron 2: Whiskers of Winter has been confirmed for Nintendo Switch, bringing brutal combat and bloody visuals later this year.

Doug Cockle, best known for his work on The Witcher franchise as Geralt of Rivia, returns to narrate the new trailer in spectacular fashion, but the true star here is the wonderful art direction. It carries over the same handdrawn animation seen in the first game, but now with even greater detail and wonderful use of colour.

There's no release date for this one yet, but needless to say, we're pretty excited to see more. Let's check out the key features, shall we?
