One of the underrated mobile classics of the last few years is finally set to receive its sequel with a release date now announced. Crashlands 2 will come in for a bumpy landing on April 10th, bringing more humorous survival action as you return to the comfortable purple shoes of Flux Dabes.
First, what is Crashlands? Well, imagine blending a bit of Starbound and Don't Starve—you'll get something pretty close. This isometric survival RPG has you playing as the space trucker Flux Dabes, who returns to the planet of Woanope in an attempt to recover from a case of "celestial burnout".
As you might have guessed, things don't go according to plan, and before long, you're once more stuck on the planet's surface. You'll need to craft weapons and gadgets, build your own home, and survive a living planet that reacts to every move you make—even the silly ones.
Starry-eyed Crashlands 2 very much looks like a revamp of the original in terms of both graphics and gameplay. You'll enjoy the survival RPG elements as well as the signature huge cast of characters to meet and interact with, including many familiar faces from the first Crashlands.
Add to that a living world full of flora and fauna to evade or eliminate, and a story that sets you on a quest to discover what sent you crash landing (pun intended) to the surface this time around. Plus, various other features like collectible pets make for a hefty package of content to enjoy.
Best of all? Crashlands 2 will not only boast cross-progression, allowing you to build your home-away-from-home on the go, but will also launch simultaneously on all platforms! That means whether you're visiting boring relatives or stuck in traffic, you can continue your adventure no matter where you are in the universe!
