Moonlighter 2: The Endless Vault Gets First Major Early Access Update

Digital Sun Games and 11 bit studios have released their first major Early Access update for Moonlighter 2: The Endless Vault. The “Greed & Glory” update adds the new Hex combat path. The path lets players curse enemies, which causes delayed damage that spreads to other foes, and can be combined with existing paths such as Thunder. The update also includes a new wave-based challenge mode called Greed Colosseum, new equipment such as the Blo-Blitz dual guns, new combat rooms, expanded perk sets, new build synergies, new shop cosmetics, and new skill tree content.

A sequel to 2018 action RPG Moonlighter, Moonlighter 2: The Endless Vault continues its predecessor’s mix of shopkeeping and dungeon-crawling, with returning protagonist Will and his companions stranded in a mysterious dimension. Players are able to select from an array of melee and ranged weapons as Will explores the eponymous vault, where both riches and danger await. Between runs, Will aims to haggle and charm his customers into purchasing the items he finds on his explorations. Players can customise Will’s shop to help gain more sales as well as invest in the village’s local businesses to help upgrade gear and unlock other opportunities. The Early Access version is currently available for PC on Steam and the Microsoft Store, with the game planned to fully release on PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch 2.
