About

Vandal Hearts II is a tactical role-playing game for the PlayStation and the sequel to Vandal Hearts.

What players say

A bold, unusual tactical RPG built on a simultaneous dual-turn system that demands predicting your opponent's moves, making it cerebral but easy to bounce off. Often called a misunderstood hidden gem, though some fans found it a step down from the original.
