Freedom Planet 2 (4th April 2024)

Recommended Posts

Paging @Jonnas :D I remember you mentioning last year that you were waiting for a release date – and now it has one! 

Quote

Return to the vibrant world of Avalice to defeat an ancient enemy, and experience all-new content like Boss Rush Mode, when the fast-paced platformer Freedom Planet 2 speeds onto consoles on April 4, 2024!

In the years since the events of the original game, our three heroines have refined their signature abilities, making them more formidable than ever before. Take advantage of Lilac's speed with her Dragon Boost, reach new heights with Carol's Jump Disc or motorcycle, or take a more measured approach with Milla's shield. And all-new playable character Neera won't be left out in the cold, as she can use her powerful Frost Arts to punish foes. Like its predecessor, this high-speed platforming adventure delivers exhilarating momentum-based action, but advances the formula with new gameplay systems and enhancements.

With 24 expertly designed stages, an ambitiously expanded Adventure mode, retro-but-refined 2D visuals, and the addition of the highly requested Boss Rush mode, Freedom Planet 2 is the indie darling grown up to become a true platforming power.

:peace:

I can't help but feel this game has been delayed for so long that it has kind of missed its window of opportunity now.  Sonic Mania, and now even Sonic Superstars, have long eaten its lunch.

Still, I'm hoping it's good.  Always up for a good Sonic style platformer :)

FINALLY! :yay:

I kid you not, I checked if there were updates on this just this morning. I can finally play this 2022 game on my Switch.

(Should've added FP2 to the 2024 pledge, I think :heh: )

By all means, Steam reviews are glowing. They also claim this to be a surprisingly long game.

So, this Switch release kind of came and went without too much fanfare, huh? I hereby appeal that y'all give this game a chance, it's really fun.

But there is something weird: the game doesn't save your button configurations. Every time I start it, I have to change them from the default (B to jump, Y to attack) to how I prefer them (A to jump, B to attack). It's bizarre, for such a modern game.
