Vertical mining just leveled up. Alawar has officially launched the first public playtest for Wall World 2 on Steam, giving fans their first hands-on experience with the highly anticipated sequel to the genre-blending roguelite tower defense hit. Unveiled earlier this year during the Humble Games Showcase, Wall World 2 promises a darker, deeper, and more dynamic adventure set along the ever-mysterious vertical Wall.
🕷️ A Bigger Robospider. A Stranger Wall.
In Wall World 2, players return to the cockpit of a robospider tank, now with customizable legs and treads that significantly impact movement and combat styles. Whether you prefer crawling across jagged rock faces or speeding through unstable terrain, you’ll be able to tailor your machine to match your tactics.
Once again, the Wall stretches infinitely upward and downward—and this time, it’s more dangerous than ever.
🧪 Playtest Details: Help Shape the Future
Launched on July 31, 2025, the playtest gives Steam users a sneak peek at Wall World 2’s new features and gameplay systems. Feedback gathered during this phase will help fine-tune everything from combat balance to robospider mechanics.
