Knights of Pen and Paper 2 gets a 60fps trailer, shows more of that beloved gameplay

The original Knights of Pen and Paper was a surprising hit with its meta-RPG approach, and its sequel, Knights of Pen and Paper 2, is arriving in May this year to roll its die again on PC, iOS and Android. Releasing its latest trailer, Paradox Interactive has shown off the game running at 1080p, 60fps, though the jury is still out whether this will be the case on the mobile versions as well. Still, the retro themed game is looking fantastic and as colourful as ever – check out the trailer below:

Admittedly, I haven’t played the first Knights of Pen and Paper, but this trailer is really tempting me to get into it now before the sequel arrives. Chief among the advertised improvements in Knights of Pen and Paper 2 are the following:

• +2 to Impress: The retro adventure makes the leap from simulated 8-bit graphics to simulated 16-bit graphics, providing players with twice the bits
• New Racial Feats: Customize your party members by choosing players such as the Goth or the Rocker, classes such as Wizard or Thief, and for the first time, races such as Dwarves and Elves
• A Game of Throws: Face the whims of the d20 in an overhauled combat system, new crafting and loot, dynamically generated dungeons, and a variety of nail-biting saving throws
• Entirely Too Many Gaming and Pop Culture Jokes: Seriously
