The sequel to one of the most-loved indie games of the few generations launches on September 15 for PS4 and September 29 for PC, and it’s already looking like a classic.
Spelunky 2 is the sequel to the critically-acclaimed roguelike platformer that received near-universal praise when it launched in 2008. Derek Yu’s follow up has some mighty big shoes to fill, then.
Blitworks’ follow-up to the original uses the randomized challenges that made the original a roguelike classic as a jumping-off point: the devs promise more depth, more tools, and more mysteries as part of the Spelunky 2 experience.
So far, it’s safe to say the game is a resounding success – outlets everywhere are raving about the game and dishing out praise for the punishing 2D title.
To make life that tiny bit easier for you, we’ve compiled a full Spelunky 2 reviews roundup to give you an easy-to-digest critical overview of what impressions are looking like across the industry.
Spelunky 2 launches in just a few days on PlayStation 4. For those of you planning to play the game on PC, though, this one might be a tough wait.
