The first time I played the original SteamWorld Dig, I completed it all in one sitting. Calling it “addicting” would be an understatement. Image & Form recently showed off a demo of its sequel, SteamWorld Dig 2, during a live stream with Nintendo of Europe, and it looks absolutely fantastic so far.
Dorothy, a character from the first game, is the star this time around. Mechanically, this appears to be very much an extension of what made the original so special. The most immediate, noticeable change is the fluidity and speed of movement. Everything looks great as you sprint and wall jump your way around the environments.
A new feature, not shown in the demo, is the ability to reassign cogs used to upgrade various gear. Some situations will call for more armor rather than weapon damage, and it’ll be up to player discretion how to divvy up their stats in each scenario.
