Independent developer Q-Games are proud to announce that PixelJunk Eden 2 is officially coming to PC and PlayStation.
It was recently announced that the PixelJunk Eden 2, originally released on Nintendo Switch in 2020, is finally coming to more platforms later this year. It will be coming to PS4, PS5, and PC via Steam and Epic Games Store. The award winning PixelJunk series’ latest entry will be released for the first time on these platforms after three years since the original one.
PixelJunk Eden 2 sees players twirling, leaping, and tumbling hypnotic landscapes, accompanied by a mesmerizing soundtrack composed by celebrated multimedia artist Baiyon.
To celebrate the announcement, a new trailer has been released. It shows the game’s unique visual style in stunning 4K for the very first time.
Players explore the beautiful gardens of Eden as a Grimp, a tiny creature with big personalities that swing from silk to collect pollen. When nearby seeds fill with collected pollen, the garden will evolve and expand, constantly growing and changing in response to the player’s actions. This will let the Grimps locate Spectra, the source of life in the garden, as well as other Grimps with unique abilities and Spices that provide a wide variety of gameplay customization options.
