Release Date: September 2, 2026
A sequel to a roguelike action RPG from 2018. In Moonlighter 2: The Endless Vault we again play as shopkeeper Will, exploring dangerous dungeons, collecting loot and selling it in his store. We can develop both Will and the village of Tresna which became his new home. The game also offers improved cartoon graphics.
Moonlighter 2: The Endless Vault is the sequel to 2018's roguelike action RPG. The game was developed by the authors of the first part of the series, namely the Digital Sun team. Its release was handled by the Polish 11 bit studios.
The action of Moonlighter 2: The Endless Vault takes place after the events depicted in the previous game. The main character, a shopkeeper named Will, lost access to his homeland. He then arrived in a remote village called Tresna.
One day, the protagonist meets a businessman who offers him help in finding his way home, in exchange for retrieving treasures from three dimensions. Without thinking too long, Will agrees to this proposal. In this way, his next adventure begins.
In Moonlighter 2: The Endless Vault we see the action from a bird's eye view. Similar to what happened in the first installment of the series, the gameplay here has been divided into two main segments.
Exploring underground areas and dungeons involves having to face hordes of enemies and avoid numerous traps and obstacles. We engage in dynamic skirmishes with enemies who stand in our way, using melee weapons (from swords to... an old broom) and relics placed in the backpack, providing Will with various effects.
After safely returning to Tresna, we can begin selling the collected items. If we want to earn as much as possible, it's worth bargaining with customers. In this way, we earn money that we can spend on expanding our store and various decorations. However, that's not all, as the game also allows us to invest in the businesses of friendly shopkeepers.
Helping other traders in developing their business pays off, as in this way we gain access to better equipment (including weapons and armor), which increases our combat potential. All of this makes both Will and Tresna village develop over time. More people can arrive, ready to leave their money and goods.
Moonlighter 2: The Endless Vault stands out from the first part of the series thanks to its much more modern graphics, kept in a cartoon style. During the game, we are accompanied by music by Chris Larkin (composer of the soundtrack for Hollow Knight among other projects).

Game Ratings for Moonlighter 2: The Endless Vault Video Game.
Game8: 84 / 100 by Aaron Bacabac
Moonlighter 2: The Endless Vault is appropriately a veritable trove of masterclass design choices, such that the original Moonlighter becomes a waning moon by comparison. Aside from its story, the sequel takes everything that made the first game special, stuffs it back onto the shelves, and gives nearly every part of it an upgrade. Maybe it shouldn’t have traded its ending for near-perfection in every other aspect, but it did, and we’re still left with some much-needed roguelite love for the shop layer and an overhauled combat loop that’s closer to traditional roguelite ken. I wouldn’t call that a bad deal, and I think neither would any of Will’s regulars.
Pixel Byte: 8 / 10 by Zach Barbieri
Moonlighter 2: The Endless Vault is more of the same, on a base level, but that’s not a bad thing. The cycle of dungeons and sales, with minor reflection on capitalism, worked then and continues to work well. The improvements to this, as evidenced by the jump from the Pixelsprite of the first game to the 3D animation, also feel meaningful. A good early access campaign can mean all the difference for a roguelike as it grows with its audience, and clearly the time was not squandered. If you want a game all about making money, this is well worth your money.
Softpedia: 8 / 10 by Cosmin Vasile
There are many things that Moonlighter 2: The Endless Vault does right, like the exploration part, along with the roguelike integration and the different paths you can take to explore every biome.
