At the ID@Xbox Showcase event, the team behind Moonlighter 2: The Endless Vault unveiled an exciting new trailer, giving fans a sneak peek into the much-awaited sequel. Exciting news for Xbox enthusiasts: the game is set to launch directly on Xbox Game Pass on its release day, which is slated for before the end of the year.
Developed by Digital Sun and published by 11 bit studios, Moonlighter 2 is an isometric action-adventure RPG that incorporates roguelike elements. Players will take on the role of an aspiring shopkeeper, venturing into perilous dungeons to collect rare artifacts and combat fearsome creatures, all in the effort to transform their modest shop into a bustling enterprise.
Digital Sun promises that Moonlighter 2: The Endless Vault will build upon the original game's foundation by introducing more expansive narratives and refined gameplay mechanics. The story follows the protagonist, Will, on his quest to find his native dimension within the vast world of Trense. Along his journey, Will reconnects with old friends and forms new alliances, including a mysterious trader who enlists him to seek out powerful relics that could lead him back home.
Adding to the game's allure is the musical score, composed by the acclaimed Chris Larkin, known for his work on Hollow Knight. Fans can look forward to experiencing Moonlighter 2: The Endless Vault later this year on PC (Steam), Xbox Series, and PS5.
