![]() ![]() Nintendo Switch 2 reveal rumoured for Gamescom in August claims new source Enemies can now swap weapons mid fight, which is interesting, and there’s a new class of shaman foe who will buff allies unless you take them down first, but otherwise everything works the same as before. The mission design is largely the same though and the only significant new abilities revolve around charging groups of enemies with your horse – who seems to have taken on even more superheroic properties than Jin himself.

This tribe is led by a female shaman called the Eagle and are sending people mad with a concoction that is meant to open up their inner psyche.
