Wall World 2

Wall World 2 introduces a host of new features, including procedurally generated mines filled with deadly anomalies, mysterious biomes, and a greater variety of enemies both on the surface and deep below. Players can experiment with a reimagined progression system, enhanced combat, and customizable robospider upgrades, including swappable legs and treads that dramatically affect gameplay. Set against the backdrop of a massive vertical wall, the sequel puts players back in the cockpit of a powerful robospider tank to mine, fight, and upgrade their way through hostile terrain and evolving threats. Between runs, players can explore Sphere City, a central hub where they'll unlock new technologies, meet characters, and prepare for their next expedition into the unknown.

  • Mining & Exploration: Venture into ever-changing mines and discover ancient technologies hidden deep within the Wall.
  • Roguelite Progression: Enhance your robospider and exosuit with persistent upgrades and new gear after every run.
  • Dynamic Combat: Battle swarms of enemies across both surface and sub-surface zones using an arsenal of upgradable weapons and abilities.
  • Anomalies & Environments: Encounter strange tile types, explosive effects, and shifting biomes that change the way you play.
  • Customization: Tailor your robospider's mobility, weapons, and support systems to fit your playstyle.
