STOCKHOLM – Jan. 14, 2025 – Everhood 2, the Unconventional Action RPG (UARPG) sequel to one of 2021’s best-reviewed indie games with over 600,000 units sold, blows out the candles for the franchise’s fourth birthday with Everhood 2’s launch on PC via Steam and Nintendo Switch on Tuesday, March 4, 2025.
Developer Foreign Gnomes asks: are you prepared to determine the color of your soul?
Laugh in the face of existential dread as a curious soul swinging between realities. Engage in interdimensional battles of fickle fates dancing the transcendental tarantella. Bob and weave while flowing through musical battles with over 100 pulse-pounding songs in a mind-bending universe on the brink of destruction. Learn your soul color and set off on a quest to slay the mysterious Mind Dragon before the world decays.
Forge bonds with a coterie of friendly creatures like the all-knowing celestial Raven, Joan of Arc, and others, all hanging in the balance of time and space. Dance with a diverse cast of sentient mushrooms, chill at the hangout with fresh and familiar characters, and bear witness to intense, trippy trials and tribulations.
Arm yourself with an arsenal fueled by friendship, ancient curses, future technological advancements, and otherworldly skills. Upgrade animated weapons like the legendary pair of Moon Blades or the skull-axe Ragnarok. Use each weapon to collect color-coded energy like Willpower, Wisdom, and more. Maintain an unbroken combo to cast heavy-hitting counterattacks for massive damage.
Explore alien worlds like the war-torn Vegetable Kingdom. Seek meaning in a narrative mambo of madness while chatting with Carl Jung, squaring off against Rasputin, and diving into philosophical discussions with Terrance McKenna as wayward souls search for absolute truths.
“We wanted to expand Everhood’s most eclectic aspects with our sequel,” said Chris Nordgren, co-founder of Foreign Gnomes. “You can still subdue evil carrot mages, time cops, robust slime creatures, and all that good stuff to the dulcet tones of Electronic Psychedelic Power Rock, but there’s quite a lot more discovery here. We even surprised ourselves! Quite a few unknown mysteries await for Everhood fans — and for anyone new, we hope this refinement of our original ideas speaks directly to your soul, whatever color it may be.”
Everhood 2 will open third eyes on PC via Steam and Nintendo Switch (North American and European territories) on Tuesday, March 4, 2025. Everhood 2 will launch on Nintendo Switch in Asian territories on Thursday, March 6, 2026.
