We finally know what the Slay the Spire studio has been working on: it’s Slay the Spire 2, baby, and oh boy, it looks good.
The reveal trailer is an animated cinematic treat, and accompanying early images are Slay the Spire staples all the way down. The art style looks a bit sharper to my eye, but it’s got the same heart underneath, from the UI to familiar cards and relics to encounters with characters like the merchant. It feels like home, and it’s good to be back.
There’s also a shot of a new encounter with a “Symbiote” that will, in this particular instance, either apply “Corrupted” to one of your Attack cards for the cost of six health or randomly remove a card from your deck. I can’t wait to see the many new cards, enemies, relics, and other variables that developer Mega Crit has no doubt cooked up.
Slay the Spire is still the king of roguelike card games after five years, which is saying something because the past five years have seen someincredibledeck builders that are, to varying degrees, largely working off the playbook that Slay the Spire wrote. The official word of Slay the Spire 2 is a dream come true for a sizable cabal of deck-building sickos. Now we just have to survive the year waiting on the Early Access launch.
The new roguelike from the Dead Cells devslooks like an incredible co-op Hades where the dodge is intentionally overpowered.
