Guacamelee! 2 Epic Games Account
Guacamelee! 2, the work of the independent DrinkBox Studios team, is a direct continuation of the warmly received Guacamelee. The game is a metroidvania platformer.
Story
Guacamelee! 2 action takes place seven years after the events of the first part of the series. The main character of the game, Juan Aguacate, lives a quiet life with his family. One day, his friend and mentor, Uay Chivo, discovers a new threat not only for Mexico, but for the whole world. The protagonist hides his face again under the luchador mask and faces the danger.
Gameplay
In Guacamelee! We observe the 2nd action from the side. The essence of the game is the exploration of fancy locations in a Mexican climate (we are talking about wetlands, abandoned temples or sun-scorched deserts), the construction of which resembles labyrinths - like other games under the sign of metroidvania, we get access to some places only when the hero has the appropriate abilities or tools. When traveling through successive areas, you should be careful, because Juan is bothered by both various traps and various opponents, among which powerful bosses lead the way. The battles are an important element of the game - we send enemies to the other world, making quick combinations of blows, finished with effective finishers. The main character has the ability to move between dimensions, which turns out to be especially useful when we are trying to avoid an obstacle or solve a puzzle.
Check out these features:
Powerful New Moves - Eagle Boost, Rocket Kick, Pollo Shot and more add to Juan’s arsenal of combat and platforming abilities.
Super Chicken - Tons of new powers for Juan’s chicken form. Ridiculous chicken-based platforming, combat and exploration. More chicken than you’ll be able to handle (probably).
Vibrant, Deadly World - An epic, colorful adventure through the worlds of the living and the dead, across rifts in time and space -- looking more gorgeous than ever thanks to a fancy new rendering engine.
Lots to See - Bigger maps, bursting with secrets and optional content. Twice as many enemy types as the first game, and a roster of eccentric new bosses.
New Upgrade System - Discover “trainers” from around the world, defeat their challenges, and upgrade your movement, combat, abilities, and more.
Caliente OST - Soundtrack featuring new music from Peter Chapman and Rom Di Prisco - composers of the original Guacamelee! OST. Additional tracks from special guests Mariachi Entertainment System!
