In Reus 2, players can expect their giants to do much more than simply nurture planets for humanity's benefit. They will also explore the fate of humanity in the cosmos of their creation. With the game’s civilization experiments, players can create multiple planets and explore how different human tribes react to the world that has been shaped for them. Players can also plan and discover strategic synergies within ecosystems, biomes, and between giants. Over time, players will discover more and more ways to bring life to their planets, with endless combinations of nature and different rosters of giants.
As humanity evolves, it will be entirely up to players to help them uncover both the best and worst of their destinies. Players can choose to foster and shape human aspirations helping them achieve their goals, or pave a more difficult road. Featuring meta progression and an adaptive experience, it’ll be up to players to decide what combination of challenging and relaxing gameplay they’d like. If something isn’t to their liking, players can always start a new humanity.
Reus 2 will have players once again diving into the incredible world of creation. Use magnificent giants to help influence the choices humanity makes and see how things end up as they evolve.
During Steam’s Tacticon, developer Abbey Games and publisher Firesquid announced that a sequel to 2013's Reus (which sold over one million units) is officially on the way.
"The original Reus is a decade old, and much has changed in the gaming world. We're excited to bring Reus 2 to this new era, and show what it can bring to all those who want to create their own perfect world!" says Maarten Wiedenhof, Manuel Kerssemakers & Adriaan Janseen the three founders of Abbey Games.
“Reus 2 was an immediate love affair for us at Firesquid”, said Anders Larsson, founder and CEO. “This relaxed god game where you can just start another humanity if they misbehave is such a great idea, and Abbey games have a history of developing great games!”
