Reus 2 Arrives on Xbox

Abbey Games and publisher Firesquid Games have launched Reus 2 today on Xbox Series and Nintendo Switch at $24.49 with 20% launch week discount. This god game, which achieved 95% positive rating across 1,900+ Steam reviews over 14 months, tasks players with controlling mighty giants that shape planets for human civilisation whilst simultaneously releasing The Ice Age DLC ($7.99 Xbox/$7.79 eShop).

Giant-Based Planet Manipulation

Players command a roster of six powerful giants, each possessing unique abilities over plants, animals, and minerals for creating biomes where human villages settle. Progression unlocks additional giant skills through inspiration points, providing diverse strategic choices for world-shaping approaches.

Terraforming involves strategically combining flora, fauna, and materials specific to different biomes. Experimentation reveals synergies that best serve inhabitants’ needs and goals, guiding humanity through evolutionary eras from primitive tribes to advanced civilisations.

Ice Age DLC Content Expansion

The simultaneous DLC introduces the harsh Ice Age biome created by an alternate Frost Giant version, featuring Mammoths, Sabertooth Tigers, Permafrost, and Geysers. This ecosystem presents fresh strategic resource management challenges alongside unique extinction and evolution mechanics where threatened species evolve into new biotica forms.

Four new leaders expand gameplay possibilities: The General whose cities grow with military power, The Poet who draws inspiration from environmental beauty, The Villain thriving in conflict and chaos, and The Painter shaping cities through art and gold whilst demanding giant patronage.

Historical Era Milestones

New era options guide humanity through Nuclear Age’s technological advancement balanced on destruction’s edge, Hunter Age’s frozen wilderness survival, Age of Discovery’s cultural exchange and plunder dynamics, and Enlightenment Age’s knowledge-driven innovation led by inventors.

These historical frameworks provide narrative context for civilisation development whilst introducing era-specific challenges and opportunities.

Cataclysm Update Features

Leaders form relationships with giants and each other based on personality traits, becoming trade allies or declaring war. Humanity can turn against giants through Giant Hunter expeditions, prompting divine punishment through disastrous elemental powers teaching respect for gods.

This relationship system adds diplomatic complexity beyond simple resource management, creating dynamic interactions between divine beings and mortal civilisations.

Galaxy-Spanning Legacy

Each playthrough generates new planets filling the galaxy with endless life variations. This persistent legacy system encourages experimentation across multiple runs as players explore different civilisation outcomes from space exploration to nature cultivation or cult formation.

The console versions include text localisation for English, French, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Polish, Ukrainian, Simplified Chinese, and Russian, ensuring broad international accessibility.

Reus 2 targets strategy enthusiasts seeking god game experiences with meaningful choices shaping civilisation development.
