Slain 2: The Beast Within

Slain 2: The Beast Within continues the story of the sentient sword Bathoryn and its many wielders, who fight the demonic forces of Lord Vroll across the galaxy. The player controls Prince Akran, the last of the Wolf Knights, who uses Bathoryn and the power of the full moon to reclaim a dying land.

Combat combines melee strikes with precision-based attacks, with an emphasis on countering enemies. Bathoryn provides elemental powers, including fire and ice, which can be used against foes. Under the full moon, Akran can transform into a werewolf and attack with claws and teeth.

The game is structured around three hand-crafted quests, each with its own setting, lore and enemies. Locations include ghostly seas, haunted castles and an abyss. Across these quests, the player seeks three sacred relics: The Eye, The Heart and The Dagger.
