<p>Galaxy Trail announced on Christmas Day that <em>Freedom Planet 2</em> is currently being developed for PC, Mac, Linux, and Wii U.</p>
<p><em>Freedom Planet 2</em> will continue its Sega Genesis 16-bit era inspired platforming routes while also slicking up the art style. The developer on the Freedom Planet 2 website states that &#8220;<em>Freedom Planet 2</em> is all about advancing and evolving [their] style into something truly distinguishable, and this should also be reflected in the appearance of the characters.&#8221; You can already tell the graphical improvement in this prototype screenshot below.</p>

<p>The characters of the original <em>Freedom Planet</em> story have grown as well. Galaxy Trail have said that &#8220;it has been several years since the events of the first game, and the girls have undergone formal training in order to strengthen and refine their fighting abilities. They&#8217;ve graduated from coincidental world-savers into full-time heroes.&#8221; There will also be a flexible difficulty system that is affected by the gold gem collectible (by your choice), which can change your attack power, amount of lives, and more. In addition, for <em>Freedom Planet 2</em>, Galaxy Trail will be adding guard and instant revival mechanics.</p>
<p>Despite the heroes&#8217; efforts of the last game, the world once again is in peril. Due to the Kingdom Stone being destroyed, Merga, a water dragon from &#8220;Avalice&#8217;s oldest and deadliest war&#8221; has been freed from her prison and is now taking vengeance on the three kingdoms. Merga will be voiced by Morgan Berry (<em>Tokyo Ghoul, Dance with Devils, Gangsta!</em>).</p>
<p><em>Freedom Planet 2</em> does not have a release date yet, but Galaxy Trail&#8217;s goal is to release a beta for the game by mid-2017.</p>
