Set four years after the Shaper’s defeat, SpellForce 2: Faith in Destiny expands the world of Eo with a new campaign, fresh races and a looming demonic threat. Players guide a Shaikan hero through isolated islands, uncovering mysteries while battling monsters, gathering artifacts, and shaping the fate of the realm.
