Building upon the foundation of Asgard’s Wrath, the sequel continues the tradition of having animal companions that aid players in puzzles and combat. In a first for the series, players can now utilize these animals as mounts, facilitating traversal across the expansive landscapes. The combat system has undergone significant enhancements, shifting from a defense-based approach to a more aggressive style. Instead of relying solely on parrying and blocking, players can employ rapid attacks to chip away at enemy shields or execute skilled parries for more powerful strikes. A notable addition is the ability of enemies to catch and hurl thrown weapons back at the player.
