Rowdy luchadors will return for extra metroidvania motion with Guacamelee! 2 subsequent yr, builders DrinkBox Studios have introduced. Bad issues are occurring once more, so we’ll have to combat them once more. This is nice information, as our John declared the primary recreation “a cut above the rest, a shining example of the form” as a Metroidvania – however a recreation blighted by unhealthy boss battles. That was then and that is now. Have a peek at Guacamelee! 2 in immediately’s announcement trailer:
New options within the sequel embody new skills akin to “Eagle Boost, Chicken Glide, and many more non-bird-themed powers!”, further technobits driving the graphics (normal-mapped characters and environments, in case you should know), and, y’know, new ranges and issues to combat and whatnot. Sequel stuff. If it may enhance the boss battles too, that might be magic.
As John stated in his Guacamelee! review in 2013:
“I have had such a fantastic time with this enormous game. I’ve been playing it in work hours, then in evenings, the weekend, any spare moment I can find. It’s a wonderful thing. Play it, if you haven’t already. It has so much going for it. I’ve had such a lot of fun for the vast majority of the time. I can’t think of a better example of why there should be a ‘skip’ button for the utterly irrelevant moments that interrupt the fun, and have hung this one out because of it. But despite the stain, it’s still a superb creation.”
Guacamelee! 2 is coming to PC in 2018, due in both spring or summer season. Hit the game’s site for extra.
