SteamWorld Heist 2 Nintendo Switch physical release happening, pre-orders open
SteamWorld Heist 2 initially debuted digitally on Nintendo Switch, but a physical release is now on the way as well. That’s based on retailers from retailers – and pre-orders are live.
For those that are new to the series, SteamWorld Heist 2 is Thunderful’s tactical turn-based shooter. The first entry first came to Nintendo 3DS at the end of 2015 and is also available on Nintendo Switch.
Below is an overview of the game:
All is not well on the waves— a water crisis is brewing! Mysteriously, this precious resource has become deadly, corroding metal limbs and mechanical hearts. As legendary Captain Leeway, it’s up to you and your ragtag crew of steambots to uncover the source of this threat and save botkind before it’s too late!
Dive into an upgraded tactical experience that builds on the beloved gameplay of SteamWorld Heist. Every move matters as you plan your turns, position your crew, and carefully aim each shot. Ricochet bullets off walls and use your surroundings to outsmart enemies, but remember—victory hinges on a well-thought-out strategy, not just a quick trigger finger.
Set sail across the vast ocean in your trusty submarine. Face real-time naval combat challenges and steer your crew through tactical ship-to-ship battles while discovering hidden treasures in every wave. Your decisions as captain shape your journey through the Great Sea.
With over 150 weapons, utility items, and ship upgrades, the possibilities for crew customisation are endless. Equip your steambots for every strategy—whether you prefer a sharpshooting sniper or a hammer-wielding bruiser. Unlock new crewmates, jobs, abilities, and gear to perfect your team for each mission.
Immerse yourself in a beautifully crafted world filled with unique environments, eccentric characters, and a captivating story. And yes, Steam Powered Giraffe is back with an all-new soundtrack that will stick with you long after you’ve docked your ship. Plus, with over 30 hours of gameplay, your adventure will be as vast as the ocean itself!
