Slay the Spire 2 will launch in early access next month. This sequel to the hugely popular 2019 roguelike deckbuilder hits early access on Steam beginning March 5, 2026. Along with releasing the teaser trailer above, developer Mega Crit shared some details about its goals for this phase ahead of the game’s official release.
“Slay the Spire requires a lot of player feedback so we can balance content, add quality of life features, and make sure the game runs without issues,” the developers explained. “Early Access is also a chance for us to test experimental features, try exotic designs, identify niche problems, and helps us make sure the game is headed in the right direction.” Slay the Spire 2 is expected to be in early access for a year or two, or more generally “until the game feels great.”
Mega Crit has also revealed that it will be introducing a new co-op mode where up to four people can team up. This gameplay option will feature some unique cards just for multiplayer as well as some team-wide synergies.
Some of the characters from Slay the Spire will be returning for the sequel alongside new ones. For anyone who hasn’t yet experienced the original game, Slay the Spire is available on iOS, including as part of Apple Arcade. It’s also on consoles and PC.
