In Shoppe Keep 2, players choose how to conduct business. They can buy stock from several suppliers around town, or take on lucrative and dangerous missions to secure high class stock that fetch higher profits.

As in the original, players will order, place and price their stock, before selling it to make a hefty profit.

Close Shoppe and explore the town, the forest, and maybe even a cave or two - and battle dangerous enemies in search for sweet, and valuable, loot!

Excalibur Games announces that Shoppe Keep 2 will leave Early Access and reach v1.0 on 25 April.

Since the game’s launch in May 2018, Shoppe Keep 2 has seen countless updates from developer Strangefire. From various additions and enhancements to the core Shoppe Keeping gameplay, to expanding the open world of Customerania, to the additional depth of progression and town upgrades, Shoppe Keep 2 has come a long way since its Early Access launch.

New to Shoppe Keep is the ability to play with friends, in four-player online co-op! Players will be able to manage a much larger store more efficiently with several players, and share their love of retail online. Players will also be able to flaunt cosmetic items they find while exploring.

Not only will players stock hundreds of items, but they'll also be able to equip every single one of them - each with varying damage and armour stats. They will use swords, bows, maces and wizard staffs while also equipping a variety of armour pieces.

An expanded character creator features in Shoppe Keep 2, allowing players to choose gender and skin colour. And players won’t be afraid to express themselves - the custom Shoppe Keeper editor also allows players to choose from various hair styles, eye colour and to add a spiffing beard.

There's also wide range of tattoos to choose from - from street-cred-boosting skulls, to poop.

Shoppe Keep 2 has an optional mechanic, which tracks in-game stock that players all over the world are selling, and sends the info to our server. This information will be used to adjust item demand, mark ups that customers will find acceptable, and more!
