XSEED, in partnership with GalaxyTrail, today unveiled the final Switch release date for Freedom Planet 2. It’ll be available on April 4, 2024.
Freedom Planet 2 has been delayed on Switch a couple of times. Most recently, it was given a Spring 2024 launch window.
For those that need a refresher on the game, check out the following overview:
Return to the vibrant world of Avalice to battle an ancient threat in the long-awaited sequel to the surprise indie action-platformer hit, Freedom Planet. In the years since the events of the original game, our three heroines have refined their signature abilities, making them more formidable than ever before. Take advantage of Lilac’s speed with her Dragon Boost, reach new heights with Carol’s Jump Disc or motorcycle, or take a more measured approach with Milla’s shield. And all-new playable character Neera won’t be left out in the cold, as she can use her powerful Frost Arts to punish foes. Like its predecessor, this high-speed platforming adventure delivers exhilarating momentum-based action, but advances the formula with new gameplay systems and enhancements.
A new Freedom Planet 2 trailer can be found below. It gives us a good look at the game and a new, fan-requested ‘Boss Rush’ mode, which will be included in the Switch version. Players can access these challenges from the in-game Battlesphere, bringing the total number of challenges and modes available up to 20. Boss Rush includes two divisions with 17 bosses each. Beat both to unlock access to a special in-game VIP room with Easter eggs for dedicated Freedom Planet fans.
Release Date Trailer
Freedom Planet 2 can be pre-ordered now on the Switch eShop for 10 percent off the normal $24.99 asking price. The sale will continue for one week after launch.
