Drinkbox Studios to Release Guacamelee! 2 on August 21
Highly-Anticipated Luchador Brawler Launching on PlayStation®4 and Steam
Oh, it’s true! It’s damn true! Celebrated independent video game
developer Drinkbox Studios is launching its long-awaited, Metroidvania
action-platformerGuacamelee! 2 on both PlayStation®4 and PC on August 21, for $19.99 / €19.99. Set in a unique world full of challenges, adventure and humor, Guacamelee! 2 expands
upon the original game by introducing new levels, enemies, characters,
and gameplay mechanics for the ultimate high-flying luchador experience.
Guacamelee! 2 brings former hero Juan Aguacate out of
retirement to stop a powerful and ruthless luchador who has emerged as
the ruler of a parallel timeline. Juan must once again don his special
luchador mask and tights, and fight his way through the worlds of the
living and the dead (plus time and space) in an attempt to save his
family... and the entire Mexiverse!
“We asked our inner skeletons what we should do for Guac 2,” said
Augusto Quijano, Concept Lead at Drinkbox Studios. “We couldn't decide
whether to add Better Moves, More Interesting Platforming, Timeline
Travel, Chicken Powers, or New Puns, so we added it all!”
Guacamelee! 2 Key Features:
Powerful New Moves–
New abilities such as Eagle Boost, Rocket Kick, and Pollo Shot add to
Juan’s awesome arsenal of moves, for use in both combat and platforming.
Super Chicken!–
A unique set of new abilities and moves for Juan’s chicken form.
Ridiculous chicken-based platforming, combat and exploration. More
chicken than you’ll be able to handle (probably).
Vibrant, Deadly World –
An epic, colorful adventure, inspired by Mexican folklore, that takes
players through living and dead worlds and across rifts in space-time!
Beautiful environments and 2D animation, more gorgeous than ever thanks
to a fancy new rendering engine.
Lots to See–

Bigger maps, twice as many enemy types as the first game, and a roster
of eccentric new bosses.
