Hey PixelJunkies, the date has been set in stone – PixelJunk Shooter 2 will be released exclusively to PlayStation Network on March 1st! The glowing previews should begin flying in soon too (fingers crossed)!
Compared to the original, this game is packed even more full of lovely gushing liquid action across three entirely new worlds, and there is a whole new game in itself with the online versus mode we have put in there (over 20 weapons and abilities for you to use against your opponent!). This is why it has taken a little longer than expected to get this into your hands, but we’re really happy that now, after winging its way through the digital tapestry called “game submission,” it has been approved for release!
Keep your eyes peeled over the next few weeks as we have some very interesting things to announce and remember to tune into our PixelJunk Radio podcast if only to hear us talk in dulcet tones!
If you have any questions about Shooter 2, fire away below and either myself or Ariel will attempt to answer them!
i cant wait…
day 1… :)
Sweet!
Awesome! Loved the first, will be picking this up.
This looks pretty amazing! I loved the first one, so I can’t wait for this :). Will the game play be the same as the first game or is there a lot more added to the single player experience?
So here are some questions about the multi-player:
How many players?
Will there be some sort of a rank system?
How many different game modes?
Hey there, sorry about the delayed response, had some trouble logging in :)
Online play is 1 on 1 and is a leagued ranking system in which you earn “money” to buy items with each battle you win. You can even gamble on the outcome of a battle if you feel really tough.
There is only 1 game mode in the online play and if you search in the PS Blog archives there is an entry describing it from a few months ago. It’s a kind of cat&mouse style of play with a Hunter and a Hunted.
