Wasting no time giving our hero a reason to fight, Elex 2 starts off by making Jax homeless. I never played the original due to other open world games at the time but having played the sequel I am left with only one thought…How on God’s round, spinning, ball of dirt that we who live on it call EARTH did this game get a sequel?Įlex 2 puts players once again in the shoes of Jax, the hero who saved the planet of Magalan in the previous game. Having heard about the original Elex developed by Piranha Bytes I was intrigued because reviews and word-of-mouth pointed towards it being a ‘janky’ but mostly loveable game which I just assumed would be like a Spiders developed game. Technomancer has its quirks but it is a ton of fun, same with the more recent Greedfall. One of the best examples I can give is most of the games made by developer Spiders. Something about them never feels quite right, but because of the fun being had its overlooked. The show is traditionally used by publishers to announce new games or promote already known titles.I don’t mind “janky” games you know the type that are “so bad, they’re good” either because of content, or story. Nevertheless, there is still hope for news about Elex 2 in 2021: THQ Nordic could use the Game Awards on 9 December 2021 to release a new trailer for Elex 2. Among other things, Elex 2 has to be submitted to Sony and Microsoft to guarantee technical stability on the consoles. The year is already too far advanced and an announcement should have been made long ago in order to initiate the time-consuming preparations for the release. Our conclusion: Elex 2 is no longer coming in 2021. Shortly after, the Steam date was corrected, now you only find a vague (Coming Soon). However, he made the restriction that they were only planning to release it in 2021. There it said 2021 as the release year – a THQ Nordic spokesperson confirmed this information even after being asked by ( Wccftech). What was on Steam?Īlthough Piranha Bytes did not want to name a release date so far, things looked different on Steam after the Reveal. Because it’s not just the pandemic and the resulting home office that is causing the studio problems, but possibly also a new feature of the role-playing game: In Elex 2, you can fly properly for the first time with the jetpack and thus explore the world from the air. Possibly Piranha Bytes had to postpone the release date, which was actually set for 2021, once again. This means that spring to mid-2022 seems to be a comprehensible timeframe. There were two years between the first preview of Elex 1 and the final release, this time the period is supposed to be shorter. By 2023 or 2024, it simply wouldn’t make sense to develop for the old consoles anymore.Įlex 2 will also be released for last-gen consoles.Įlex 2 already makes quite an advanced impression, recently the game was previewed by Gronkh on ( Twitch and YouTube). Embracer is the listed owner of THQ Nordic.Įlex 2 is also coming out for last-gen consoles, which definitely argues against a release beyond 2022.

To capture the all-important Christmas sales, video games are released at the end of the year either in November or early December. Even in the intro trailer with render sequences, which was released in September 2021, there was no new information on this: In regular videos on the ( YouTube channel of the studio), the topic has always been avoided so far. Since then, PB boss Björn Pankratz has avoided giving a concrete date for the release of Elex 2. What does Piranha Bytes have to say about the Elex 2 release?Īt the time of the announcement in June 2021, the developers talked about having a shorter time span between reveal and release this time (remember, the predecessor Elex was revealed in July 2015 and released in October 2017).
