Spirit of the North 2 expands significantly on the original, offering a vast and ancient open world to roam freely.

- Seek Ancient Runes: Discover potent runes hidden throughout the world that enhance your mystical abilities, crucial for overcoming obstacles and progressing on your quest.
- Face Legendary Guardians: The core objective involves finding and cleansing the corrupted spirits of the legendary Guardian beasts through thrilling, puzzle-based encounters.
Forge Your Path, Customise Your Companions
This time, you can tailor your experience further with extensive customisation options for both your fox protagonist and your loyal raven companion, allowing you to craft a look that suits your playstyle across the game’s estimated 16+ hours of atmospheric gameplay.
Immerse yourself in the journey with a dynamic soundtrack that evolves as your adventure unfolds, perfectly complementing the stunning visuals.
Building on a Unique Legacy
Spirit of the North 2 arrives highly anticipated, especially by those who enjoyed the original’s unique charm. We highlighted the sequel as one to watch in our 15 NEW Xbox Games Due to Release in May 2025 That Will BLOW YOUR MIND! feature.
The first game, particularly Spirit of the North: Enhanced Edition for the current generation, certainly made an impression. In our 3.5/5 review, we concluded:
“The journey, atmosphere, and concept of Spirit of the North: Enhanced Edition are all fantastic, as is the setting and the visuals. It’s a shame that the platforming elements are at times frustrating in regards the accuracy and weight of the fox, and some of the animations don’t work as planned, but this is still a very unique and endearing experience.“
Fans will be eager to see how the platforming and exploration elements have evolved in this ambitious sequel. Note that Spirit of the North 2 is a current-gen exclusive and will not be available on Xbox One.
