Developer Chorus Worldwide announced Aggelos 2 this week, positioning it as the upcoming sequel to the retro‑styled 2D Metroidvania Aggelos. The new entry is targeting a 2026 release across PC and console platforms.
The original Aggelos delivered tight pixel artwork, side-scrolling exploration, and layered progression across maps. Aggelos 2 appears set to expand the scope of the first game with more traversal upgrades, a deeper narrative ar, and richer world connectivity.
The early visuals released by Chorus showcase enhanced tile lighting, character animation with subtle shading, and smoother transitions between regional biomes. Gameplay promises complex element puzzles integrated into combat and platforming. Chorus emphasizes player‑driven discovery rather than scripted progression, mirroring the first game’s philosophy while broadening world design.
The controls are refined for modern controllers and platform feedback. The development team also references enhanced difficulty scaling to adapt to player skill levels. Aggelos 2 is slated for 2026 without a permanent date set yet.
