![]() Having listed all that fun new stuff, we'd have recommended you buy the game before Hopoo added any of it because, as we already noted, Risk of Rain 2 was already an engaging and dynamic third-person shooter. Now the game is finished, with the release version of the game dropping this week, complete with an intro, a proper ending, a couple of new enemies, some fresh in-game items, a new playable character, and plenty more besides. It wasn't as much fun as its successor, though. And so it should be because ROR2 is built on rock-solid foundations it may not have captured hearts to the same extent but the first game (a side-scrolling platformer) was still a lot of fun. The update for Risk of Rain 2 is out now for Switch, and while it took over 3 months for the update to come out, the update for Switch brought bug fixes for all console versions of Risk of Rain 2, making the wait worth it for players of the game.Risk of Rain 2 has been chugging through early access for just over a year, but if truth be told, the game was extremely playable from the first moment that Hopoo Games unleashed its creation on the gaming populace. ![]() The update also brings the Stadia exclusive Sundered Grove to the rest of the ports of the game, as well as new bosses, like the Grandparent from Risk of Rain 1, and new abilities for the Captain, Mul-T, and the Loader. ![]() The level has also been revamped to be more inside the design philosophy of the other levels of the game. Instead of running down a long corridor and completing the boss to run back, the player has to complete some extra challenges. As well as a revamped version of the Moon, where the final boss lays. The update contains a whole new survivor, The Bandit, who makes his return from Risk of Rain 1. The delay comes from the fact that the game is now going to launch with all the bug fixes that have been released on console today as well. The reason behind this delay becomes clearer, however, as the game was experiencing multiple bugs on the console ports with the release of the anniversary update for Risk of Rain 2. However, the Anniversary update was pushed back by 6 months. Seeing that during early access, the game was getting updates on console 3 months after PC. Reasons as to why this update was held off for switch could come down to console priority, although the game is being published by Gearbox, the game is still being developed by the indie team at Hopoo Games. For some reason, this update was held off until today for the Nintendo Switch. ![]() The game received an anniversary update on Console and PC on March 25 th, which included a handful of content for the players to try out. The game ran on Early Access and was launched on Console and PC. This change didn’t dissuade fans from checking the game out, however, and Risk of Rain 2 was eventually picked up to be published by Gearbox to be put on consoles. The second game found itself transitioning to 3D, with the game becoming a 3 rd person shooter, rather than the 2D platformer it was prior. However, the original game started out as a 2d side scroller, and would then become more with the invention of its sequel, Risk of Rain 2. The game was originally a Kickstarter title, and after its funding, found it’s cult following, brewing a community who enjoyed the sci-fi roguelike. ![]()
