Dead Age 2 from Silent Dreams and Headup now has a release date set for June 3, along with a brand new trailer. To be clear, it's starting off in Early Access although they're saying it won't be for very long due to it having the main game mechanics in already, they just need to add more content to it.
"Dead Age 2 is a unique combination of survival, management, Rogue-Like events, turn-based combat, classic role-playing game with tons of quests and a story in which your decisions directly effect plot progression!"
Check out the new trailer below:

I did quite like what I played of the original which also supported Linux, and it seems a lot of other people did to with it going onto receiving a "Very Positive" rating from over three-thousand players. Hopefully then, they've been able to build upon the strengths of the first game to produce a sequel that's bigger and better.
You can wishlist/follow Dead Age 2 on Steam.
