Moonlighter 2: The Endless Vault announced

As a seasoned gamer with over two decades of experience under my belt, I can confidently say that Moonlighter was one of those indie games that truly stood out from the crowd back in 2018. The unique blend of dungeon-crawling exploration, action RPG combat, and shopkeeping was a breath of fresh air. So, when I heard about Moonlighter 2: The Endless Vault, my heart skipped a beat!

11 Bit Studios unveiled Moonlighter 2: The Boundless Treasury, the follow-up to the 2018 indie sensation, slated for release in 2025 by studio Digital Sun.

The team indicates that the upcoming sequel enhances the successful blend from its forerunner of dungeon-delving exploration, action RPG combat, and retail business. Players will embark on an adventure with Will and his comrades, who find themselves in a mystifying dimension within Tresna’s village. Aspiring to revive the village’s splendor and his shop’s prestige, Will encounters an intriguing chance to go back home through an enigmatic artifact collector.

Check out the reveal trailer:


 

Equipped with a versatile collection of close combat and long-range tools, Will is just as adept in battle situations as he is at negotiating deals. His escapades lead him into risky vaults teeming with potential wealth, but also filled with constant peril. Back in his shop, it’s all about winning people over, employing clever tactics, and bartering to transform whatever he discovers into valuable treasure. After all, in Will’s world, everything is up for sale!

It’s worth pointing out that the developers responsible for the DLC “Between Dimensions” are actually the same team who have also created games such as “Cataclismo”.

Five years after the groundbreaking release of Moonlighter, Digital Sun’s CEO, Javier Gimenez, shared that Moonlighter 2: The Endless Vault embodies our growth as a team. It encapsulates all the expertise we’ve gathered over the years. We’re pouring every ounce of skill into crafting a game that surpasses its predecessor in quality and is overflowing with even more endearing details, making it an unforgettable experience for players.
