That’s right, we finally have a release date for the second episode of King’s Quest! The next installment, Rubble Without a Cause, is coming out on December 16 to Xbox One, Xbox 360, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, and Windows PC.

King’s Quest is a re-imagining of the classic adventure game series of the same name. In it, you play an aging king who is recounting the exploits of his youth to his young granddaughter Gwendolyn.

Here’s the official plot summary of episode 2: “In this latest page in the acclaimed reimagining of the classic adventure gaming series, King Graham takes players back to his first test as ruler of Daventry. When a band of goblins holds the kingdom hostage, a newly crowned and ill-equipped Graham must lead a daring rescue to free his people and prove himself the leader they deserve. But the choices he makes along the way may have dire consequences for those most counting on him.”

If you missed the first episode of King’s Quest, called A Knight to Remember, you can catch it for free on PlayStation 4  through the end of December (if you’re a PS Plus member, that is). Or you can read our review right here.
