Spelunky 2 comes to PC on September 29

Derek Yu announced in August that "Spelunky 2" would be released on PlayStation 4 on September 15 and on PC shortly thereafter. Today we learn that he meant "shortly," or more accurately, "two weeks."

That's it: Spelunky 2 will launch on Steam on September 29, and since the Steam page hasn't been updated and is still "coming soon" at this point, we'll turn instead to a few weeks ago, when our resident spelunker Emma took a closer look at the then-new trailer.

The new film seems to follow the adventures of the original character's daughter, who, for reasons unknown, is headed to the moon. Her pet pug, Damsel, will also return, as will possibly the boss from the previous game, Olmec. In addition to the new elements, players can expect more complex level design and interaction, with familiar zones and enemies. There will also be interesting new items, such as the "one and only" clone gun.

"Spelunky 2" can be wish-listed on Steam (and will be available for pre-purchase soon). For more information, visit spelunkyworld.com.
