Metroidvania hit Rain World is obtaining a 2nd significant development with new locations and an additional usable slugcat.
Rain World had the regrettable good luck of appearing within a month of Hollow Knight back in 2017, however that really did not quit the moody platformer from locating substantial success. The Rain World: Downpour development currently swamped the game with much more material simply in 2014, and currently, the programmers are preparing momentarily significant development.
Developer Videocult introduced the Rain World: The Watcher DLC with a brief and strange intro trailer that reveals the titular slugcat arising from the darkness. The news blog post points out that the “fourth slugcat of Rain World has not been forgotten, their time is coming” – sustaining follower concepts that the evasive Nightcat is front and facility right here.
“Journey beyond to something, somewhere only ever glimpsed,” the news proceeds. “When the world beneath your feet cracks and crumbles, will you hold on to all you once knew? Or dive into the unknown? Unknown creatures stalk and climb and dive and hunt. New breeds rip and pluck and burrow and hide. Predator and prey redefined. And through the middle of it all, a lonely lost slugcat trying their best to outlast the ravages of a warped world.”
Rain World: The Watcher has no main launch day so far, however remarks from the trailer on YouTube mention that we may be taking pleasure in a 2nd development prior to Hollow Knight: Silksong sees the light of day. (That being claimed, Hollow Knight obtained some substantial, cost-free, and superb post-launch material packs of its very own, most especially The Grimm Troupe and Godmaster.) And the long-awaited follow up is “still in development,” and must it in fact appear this year, it would just reinforce a currently amazing time for Metroidvanias.
You can wishlist Rain World: The Watcher on Steam. The very same workshop is likewise working with an awesome-looking, car chaos game called Airframe Ultra.
While we await both, why not look into the ideal Metroidvania games to obtain shed in?
