Titan Quest II Summons New Update

THQ Nordic and Grimlore Games have released a new Early Access update for action RPG Titan Quest II. The latest update for the game adds summons, a returning element of the first game. Summons are designed to work with active and passive play styles. Auras and most summons are treated as “sustained” skills. This means they reserve some energy but that players to do not need to have them in their skill bar, and are re-summoned automatically.

Each Mastery has its own summon: Wisps (Storm Mastery), War Banner (Warfare Mastery), Automaton (Forge Mastery), Core Dweller (Earth Mastery), and Shadow Clone (Rogue Mastery). Players can unlock the ability to have multiple summons active at once. In addition, the update also adds the new Talismans item type, which are off-hand equipment that mages can use in place of shields, as well as some balancing rework all of the game’s Epic-tier items, and other adjustments. The full update notes can be found here.

Titan Quest II is currently available on Early Access through Steam and the Epic Games Store, priced at $29.99/€29.99. The game is a follow-up to 2006 title Titan Quest and is inspired by Greek mythology. It sees Nemesis, Goddess of Retribution, corrupting the Threads of Fate and condemning all those who oppose her to eternal punishment. Players control a hero fighting alongside the gods aiming to change fate, with the game including online co-op multiplayer. The game will fully release for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S.
