Challenging boss encounters and 12 fusion options – with more planned for post-launch updates – round out the package.
A statement from DeadPixel describes Machick 2 as a game that “dramatically expands on the charm and variety that made the original a worldwide sensation on YouTube.” The sequel’s expanded gameplay and visual improvements aim to satisfy the franchise’s dedicated community as well as attract new players.
