Rogue Legacy 2 Officially Announced

Despite what could have been an April Fools' joke pointing to its existence, Cellar Door Games has confirmed today that Rogue Legacy 2 is officially in the works. "Your Legacy continues," Cellar Door Games wrote in a tweet revealing the sequel, while also revealing a first look at the sequel. [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=rogue-legacy-2-first-screenshots&captions=true"] No release date or projected platforms have been announced by Cellar Door Games yet, but the tweet today confirms a tease Cellar Door posted yesterday indicating a sequel might be in the works. And Cellar Door has confirmed more info is set to be revealed soon. "Yes, it's official. Rogue Legacy 2 is in development! We'll be releasing a lot more info in the coming days," the company's tweet confirms. Rogue Legacy is a 2D rogue-lite with an ancestral twist — players take on the role of a knight going through a randomly generated castle, but with every permanent death, that knight's heir would be the next to journey into the castle. Players would choose after each death from one of three different possible heirs, with different classes and abilities, that would then let players try to venture deeper into Rogue Legacy's world. IGN praised Rogue Legacy in our review when it debuted, calling it "a hugely compelling mix of 2D action-platforming and Roguelike game design, with excellent pixel art and just the right level of challenge."
