Slay the Spire 2 has topped 177k concurrent players on Steam, and is steadily rising, setting a new record for a roguelike on the platform just weeks after Mewgenics smashed the previous record.
EVERY Balatro streamer is doing StS2 today

Played a few runs, the game is pretty darn fun as you might expect but since it’s still in early access it might not have that much content yet. I will say it feels like a much more polished and fun version of StS1 so far, and I haven’t even tried multiplayer yet.

I’m pretty sure Sts2 has more content than the first game already even though its in early access

Could you tell me what are the differences from the first edition? I played a bit of it and liked it but I can’t fathom what they could change without drastically changing the game completely

Everything is more animated, new player classes/enemies/mechanics/events, lots of lore.

The servers were struggling with all the people trying to buy it at release, including me. I had been hoping to get a few floors in before heading to work…

Does gog usually get early access? Genuinely curious

It’s an option available to devs, but I can’t speak to “usually”.

I was up hours past my bedtime. I saw the email and bought without hesitation. It may not be my favorite game, but the original has my highest recorded play time in my library. I’m sure a game like smash or minecraft are up there, but I don’t feel the same way about them. Like I actively avoid slay the spire otherwise it will impact my personal responsibilities.
