The inaugural Triple-i Initiative opened with a bang this evening with the announcement of Slay the Spire 2 and you can check out the announcement reveal trailer right here, you lucky souls!

There’s not much to report at the time of writing, although there’ll surely be more to tell you about in the coming hours, so I’ll update this page as and when I find out more.

There’s a Steam page where you can already wishlist the game, and I’ve grabbed the most important info for you below:

  • Deckbuilding Galore – New slayers join the fray with their own sets of cards, mechanics, and personalities. Try out more archetypes and master them at your own pace. The Spire forever awaits those who dare challenge it…
  • An Ever-Changing Spire – The Spire isn’t what it used to be. Encounter all new enemies, events, and treasures await as the rooms and items you discover change each time you play… Try risky builds or play it safe as you explore countless different strategies, find yourself in peculiar scenarios, and confront the Bosses of each Act.
  • Rebuilt from the Ground Up – Slay the Spire 2 was completely rewritten from the ground up in a new game engine! We’re bringing in modern features, incorporating all-new visuals, and expanding moddability.

What I do know is that the game is going to start life in Early Access on Steam, but you’ve got a while to wait as it’s not due to land until some point in 2025. Tick tock, tick tock.

Would you like to know more? 

Still with me? Of course you are! If you want to keep reading about great hand-picked roguelikes, this website is absolutely chock-full of them. Head over to the Guides Page for a concentrated hit of roguish games, organised via sub-genre and platform.

What’s more, there are always going to be new lists for emerging trends as well as fresh titles to highlight. This is because my backlog is embarrassingly long, and so I’m always trying to balance the new games that arrive in my inbox with playing the stuff I already have.
