ROGUE LEGACY 2 SWITCH RELEASE DATE FOR FREE
The new Heirloom systems will add a layer of persistence in this otherwise rogue-like title.įor those who never experienced the original, you receive a copy of Rogue Legacy for free on the Epic Games Store from April 7th to the 14th. Visually there’s definitely more details in the background and watching trailers you will see that your descendants will be wielding new weapons and powers. With nearly 4 years of development you can definitely see the improvements the team has made when compared to the original title. Cellar Door Games promised to retain the gameplay that made the first one so successful and add new features which will ensure this iteration stands on its own. I’m will be looking to keep my schedule clear when its sequel Rogue Legacy 2 officially leaves Early Access on April 28th. Just more everything.Cellar Door Games’ Rogue Legacy monopolized my free time when it launched way back in 2013 (Their initial title Don’t Shit Your Pants also occupied my time…but not as much). More traits, more spells, more classes, more biomes, more enemies, more equipment, more rooms, more story. More of Everything: Of course we’re also adding more of everything people loved from the original Rogue Legacy.The experience keeps changing for near infinite replayability. You must choose how the game gets harder, from unique biome hazards, to special boss fights. There is a ton more to explore and discover on multiple playthroughs. New Game+ for Days: Your journey has only begun after beating the final boss in RL2.And connect and build relationships with the characters you meet along the way. Learn about the inevitable collapse of a once thriving kingdom, and discover the dark secrets of the ones responsible. Beating the game once is only the beginning. New lore awaits you all the multiple NG’s in. A Rich Narrative: Not only is the lore to the world of Rogue Legacy greatly expanded in the sequel, but it runs deep.We’ve also introduced new mechanics such as Off-shore Banking to give struggling players more ways to succeed. You have complete control over how you want to play the game. Toggle contact damage, tweak global damage and health, and even give yourself flight for difficult platform sections. Improved Accessibility: We’ve taken accessibility to the next level with the introduction of House Rules.But be careful, the more Relics you obtain the more your resolve is shaken, and all Relics are lost if your hero perishes. Gain stat modifiers, complete special challenges, and even gain brand new abilities as you traverse the kingdom. Relics and Resolve: One of the most exciting new features to Rogue Legacy 2 is the ability to pick up Relics, which are unique items that change how your run is played.This makes choosing your heirs a meaningful decision every time. The more debilitating the trait is (in-game), the bigger the reward. We’ve now added gold modifiers to entice players to take on new challenges. Traits 2.0: Though fun the first time, the traits in RL1 often wore their welcome later in the game.You must prove your worth, provided you can find them. And heirlooms are not simply handed to you. These are not basic lock-in-key abilities, but powers that fundamentally change how you play. True Metroidvania: To really push the metroidvania flair, RL2 introduces heirlooms: special items that permanently give your heroes new abilities that fully reveal the world’s secrets.Each biome adopts different “build strategies” to create completely unique yet-still-randomly-generated regions.


Every Adventure is Unique: New monsters, new traps, and new layouts await you every time you enter the Kingdom.
