When will slime rancher 2 be released5/20/2023 ![]() ![]() This is certainly a fun little mechanic, but I’ve seen it a lot already and there are few fresh challenges to complete alongside it. It’s a little disappointing that the main obstacle they throw at you remains unchanged from the first game though, as you’ll still be overfeeding massive Gordo slimes to unlock new areas and shortcuts. I particularly enjoyed the new lava area that can be found in the Ember Valley, which required more thoughtful platforming and offered more danger than past locations. And while there aren’t many of them yet, each area is impressively large, has lots of verticality to explore, and even has a few puzzles to solve as you hunt for slimes in the wild. Running around is really smooth and platforming from place to place is more precise (which is a good thing, because it plays a larger role now) even if the woefully tiny stamina meter that shares its energy with your jetpack is still a constant annoyance. The movement mechanics also have some notable improvements, making jetpacking around the hub areas more fun than ever. Really the only issues I ran into were occasional bugs, like the all-too-familiar falling through the floor and seeing under the world thing, but those were easy to resolve with a simple reboot and relatively rare. The areas are beautiful and diverse too (even if there are only three of them so far), and the UI, music, sound effects, and lighting make everything easier on the eyes and ears, to the point where it hardly even feels like an early access game on the surface. Slime Rancher 2 release date: 22nd September Price: 29. Slimes have a ton of personality now, serving as irresistibly weird creatures to chase – that includes the new cotton slimes that bounce around and joyously eat all your vegetables, as well as returning crystal slimes that come off as mischievous bullies in this iteration who want nothing more than to break everything in their path. ![]() The new slimes for you to find are: Cotton Slime: A bouncy, rabbit-like slime with big ears. This is most immediately recognizable in its presentation, which has been improved substantially. Cotton Slime is one of many new slimes introduced in Slime Rancher 2. If the original was a compelling and memorable proof of concept, then Slime Rancher 2 comes much closer to a final product that benefits from years of fine-tuning – even in this early state. But despite the familiarity, it’s impossible not to notice this sequel’s higher level of polish. ![]()
