Being the sequel to the 2018 game Cave Digger, which has since come to multiple VR and flat-screen platforms, Cave Digger 2 is confirmed to introduce a 4-player multiplayer co-op and combat mechanics to the game series.

Another major change is freeform mining with procedural mining run generator. Mining runs are made of select premade chambers. The Run Generator basically selects adjectives from a list and uses only the chambers matching those adjectives for a given run. So each mining run will be unique while based on a certain theme.

The game also comes with its own storyline in a region called New Frontier. As players seek Mother Earth’s riches, they come across mysteries. The biggest mystery will be linked to Clayton, an NPC who came to New Frontier long before the players themselves. Multiple endings will also be part of Cave Digger 2 similar to the first Cave Digger.

Key Features:

• Mining, looting, capitalizing
• Tool and weapon upgrades
• Exploration in procedurally generated levels
• Close-quarters combat
• Cross-platform co-op multiplayer
• Character customization
• An unraveling story in a form of collectibles

Cave Digger 2 is coming to Steam Early Access in Q3 2021, full launch scheduled for 2022.
