Releasing “soon,” players can get a taste of the sequel to the award-winning luchador brawler at PAX East by meeting with Drinkbox in the Indie MEGABOOTH. Starting today Steam users can add the game to their wishlist here.
Guacamelee! 2 expands upon the original game by introducing new levels, enemies, bosses and gameplay mechanics for the ultimate high-flying luchador experience.

In celebration of our anniversary and this new announcement, we’ve decided to put the entire Drinkbox Steam catalog on sale at 90% off.”
