Slime Rancher 2 Update

SONG OF THE SABERS FEATURES OVERVIEW

Explore a New Biome: Powderfall Bluffs is a prehistoric frozen island that has mysteriously emerged from the Slime Sea. It’s an icy biome unlike anything ever seen in Slime Rancher, but you’ll need to find it first before enjoying this winter wonderland. Here’s a hint: the entrance to it is located somewhere in Ember Valley…

Wrangle New Slimes: This snowy sanctuary is home to Saber Slimes—a ferocious blast from the past! And this update also includes a new, RARE slime, but we don’t want to make it overly easy for you to find it so that’s all the info you’re getting from us…

Source New Food: Prehistoric Thundercluck chickens roam among the snowdrifts. They’re scary looking! But they just look like dinner to a Saber Slime.

Gather New Resources: Powderfall Bluffs offers many new precious resources from its frigid peaks including impossibly Perfect Snowflakes, rare Sun Sap, and adorable Slime Fossils.

Build New Gadgets: Start an icy dust-up anywhere with the Snowball Machine or put other handy gadgets to use like the Hydro Shower, Location Markers, and new Warp Tech.

Craft Wintery Deco: Craft a giant snowflake just because you can, or a snow globe that plays music to really set the mood, as well as golden slime and chicken statues and earn the admiration (or at least curiosity) of your fellow ranchers.

Walk Upon Auroral Anomalies: Phantom-like flora gleam throughout the landscape and nightfall illuminates bridges that allow you to reach new heights along the icy mountains—but act fast before they vanish with the dawn.

Snowball Fights: Slimes love to play in the snow and won’t hesitate to engage in a snowball fight with you and other slimes!

BEYOND THE FROZEN HORIZON

Article continues below advertisement

Song of the Sabers is our first major content update for Slime Rancher 2 and aims to deliver more of what you know and love about Slime Rancher, with a few surprises along the way.

Following this update, Monomi Park will be developing new features that build upon the core activities and game systems of Slime Rancher, allowing you to experience Rainbow Island in new ways. We’re excited about this set of features that we think will wiggle, jiggle, and shake up the Slime Rancher formula.

Further out, Beatrix’s adventure will finally take her into the massive and mysterious Grey Labyrinth that blocks her progress across the furthest reaches of the island. And though its purpose and history remain unknown, it's clear that the key to unlocking the secrets of Rainbow Island lies beyond its walls.

Slime Rancher 2 Early Access

While researching Slime Rancher's early access, the developers discovered an answer to the question regarding early access in their FAQ section. Let us see the accurate answer to the question of whether early access was released or not. On September 22, 2022, Slime Rancher 2 officially launched in early access on Steam, the Epic Game Store, and in game preview on Xbox Series S/X and Windows PC. The whole release will debut at a later time (version 1.0 and later). Slime Rancher 2 is currently playable on PC and Xbox Series X/S. No other platforms have been revealed as of yet.

With a large landscape to explore, a variety of slimes to gather and combine, and an explanation of the game's plot and the mystery surrounding Rainbow Island, the Early Access or Game Preview begins. However, Slime Rancher 2 will be an incomplete game at launch because it is being released in Early Access/Game Preview. It won't have all of the features, slimes, environments, goods, stories, etc. that may be found in the finished game. Although considerable care has been taken to make Slime Rancher 2 feel somewhat complete and worthwhile to play at any point in its development, if you like to go through a game in its entirety at once, you may simply wait until the full version is released at a later time.

Slime Rancher 2 Gameplay

Beatrix LeBeau, a rancher who moved from Earth to a far-off planet to live the life of a slime rancher, is the character that the player controls. The ranch is built, and the player explores the area to gather, feed, and breed slimes, gelatinous living things of varied sizes and features.

In order to make "plorts," which may be sold for Newbucks, a currency needed to develop the ranch and its equipment, slimes must be fed the right kinds of food in order to produce them. There are numerous varieties of slime, including ones that were developed for Slime Rancher 2. Depending on what they are fed, slimes respond and evolve.
