Risk of Rain 2 Leaves Steam Early Access

Risk of Rain 2

Gearbox Publishing and developer Hopoo Games have launched their 3D action roguelite, Risk of Rain 2, from Steam Early Access.

The game entered Early Access in March 2019, and was followed by console versions in August 2019. Much like its predecessor, players choose from different survivors with unique sets of skills and fight their way through procedurally generated levels, grabbing loot and other upgrades to survive increasingly difficult challenges.

The release from Early Access was accompanied by a gigantic update that added new content and a long list of balance tweaks. You can read more about the update here. No word yet on when this update will come to the console versions of the game.

Risk of Rain 2 is currently $19.99 USD, with a 20% discount that lasts until August 18th. The price will then increase to $24.99 USD.

You can find a launch trailer below.

You can find a rundown of the game (via Steam) below:

SURVIVE AN ALIEN PLANET
Over a dozen handcrafted locales await, each packed with challenging monsters and enormous bosses that oppose your continued existence. Fight your way to the final boss and escape or continue your run indefinitely to see just how long you can survive. A unique scaling system means both you and your foes limitlessly increase in power over the course of a game.

DISCOVER POWERFUL NEW ITEMS
More than 110 items keep each run fresh and full of new challenge. The more items you collect, the more their effects combine, the more surprising some of those combinations might be. The more items you encounter, the more lore (and strategy) you’ll discover through the logs.

UNLOCK NEW WAYS TO PLAY
Unlock a crew of ten playable survivors, each with their own unique combat style and alternate skills to master. Learn the secrets of the Artifacts to toggle gameplay modifiers like friendly fire, random survivor spawns, item selection and more. With randomized stages, enemies, and items, no run will ever be the same.

PLAY SOLO OR CO-OP
Tackle the adventure solo or with up to three friends in online co-op, or compete in the rotating challenge of the Prismatic Trials. Brand new survivors like the Captain and MUL-T join classic survivors such as the Engineer, Huntress, and–of course–the Commando.

Risk of Rain 2 is available on Windows PC (via Steam), Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.
