Gearbox have just announced that Risk of Rain 2 is out today and it's available on Xbox One, PS4, and Nintendo Switch.


The original Risk of Rain was a simple, yet ambitious project from two university students. It was a roguelike 2D platforming game with quite an addictive gameplay. And now the sequel moved the whole idea to a full 3D environment.


Here's what the brand manager, Nathaniel Wattenmaker had to say about the game: "One of our goals was actually to keep the core moment-to-moment gameplay feeling similar and authentic to the original. When you land in Risk of Rain 2, the enemies will likely kick your butt, but in a fair way. Pay close attention and you'll see patterns everywhere. You learn. You grow. You get better. Eventually taking down enormous bosses to push ever deeper into the planet's mysteries".


Pick up the game today and get ready for some intense action as it looks like there will be plenty of it! But before that, do check out the launch trailer:
