MegaCrit has just given us all something to look forward to next month by confirming the release date for Slay the Spire 2, which is now pinned down to March 5th, 2026.
After a delay last year, the Early Access release of this hugely anticipated deckbuilder sequel had been pencilled in for a March launch, but I thought it was coming in the back half of the month, if I’m honest with you.
I’m just delighted that it hasn’t been pushed back again. Kieran and I were discussing the likelihood of another delay, but it seems as though MegaCrit gave themselves enough time to get Slay the Spire 2 ready.
The release date announcement post over on Steam also mentions the game’s new co-op mode, which will allow up to four players to ascend the spire together. Consider me intrigued.
Still with us? Of course you are! If you want to keep reading about great hand-picked roguelikes, the following article represents a huge collection of some of the best games ever made. I’ve played all of them to make sure that my lists are as comprehensive and cohesive as possible.
Hit that link for more than 40 of the top roguelike games, and keep exploring within that article because each sub-section also contains a link to another feature specifically about that category. That’s a lot of roguelites, and there are always more on the horizon because my back catalogue of games is embarrassingly huge.
