Summer Sale Discount And All The Monsters You Can Handle



The Steam Summer Sale is back and The Pit 2 moves ever closer to leaving Early Access with the 1.0.19 update, which besides adding a host of fixes, tweaks, and quality of life changes saw the last of the monsters added to the game, including The Swamp Strangler, which can make itself invisible, the Harpy Warbot, the Adaptoid - is that a real locker, or an Adaptoid? Only way to find out it get close! - and the ominous Von Neumann Drone.

But that's not all, there are dozens and dozens of Pit denizens lurking in the dark - from little rats to big robots, every level deeper you go will be a bigger and bigger challenge. But remember, besides trying to survive to the bottom, you might luck out and find an Escape Pod, taking your score with you.

Early Access for The Pit 2 was done as an opportunity for players - those new to the series and those who've put a lot of time into the original - to provide us with their feedback on the game as we implemented the final game mechanics and worked to balance the game. Once the game leaves Early Access, the Early Access pricing will go away as well, which means this is one of the last opportunities to pick the game up at Steam Sale prices!

So, grab the game today! If you can't, be sure to put it on your wishlist, and if you already have, please please please give the game a review in the Steam Store!
