After the success of The Surge, the hardcore Action RPG released in May 2017 on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC, Focus Home Interactive and Deck 13 are happy to announce the renewal of their partnership and the development of The Surge 2, with a release date planned for 2019 on consoles and PC.
The Surge 2 keeps what fans and critics loved about the original – hardcore combat utilizing a unique, dynamic limb targeting system and deep character progression – while also expanding greatly upon the formula. The Surge 2 takes place in a brand new environment: a sprawling, devastated city with larger and more ambitious level design, made possible by Deck13’s upgraded and improved engine. Combat is more brutal and tactical than ever, with even more options thanks to an expanded limb targeting system. In addition, more abilities, weapons, implants, and drones give players a vast arsenal to build their character with, in their fight against the array of diverse new enemies and bosses.
Closed Beta Registration Opened, Limited to 50 Players
Hello everyone!
The team has been working hard on The Surge 2 and we’ve now reached a stage at which we’d like to gather feedback about the game. Your reports will be instrumental in order to polish the experience as much as possible.
We’re looking for approximately 50 players to participate in a private Closed Beta for The Surge 2.
If you’re interested, please fill this form. We will contact you by email in the event that you are selected.
Has anyone played the first one? It's free in game pass and gave it a shot and it feels like a clunkier, scifi dark souls. I didn't know if I wanted to give it a proper shot so I thought I'd ask BG first.
The Surge 2, Deck 13’s latest futuristic Action-RPG releases its Season Pass today, chock-full of content coming in the next months to PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. Players who purchase the Season Pass will experience new weapons, including the exclusive BORAX-I Quantum weapon depicted in today’s screenshots, new gear sets, and a brand-new storyline in a new district introducing fresh enemies and bosses. The release schedule and contents of the Season Pass are outlined in our post-launch roadmap above.
13 new weapons will arrive in The Surge 2 in November, followed by three complete sets of gear for your exo-rig in December. Finally, in January, players can explore a brand-new location - a mysterious aircraft-carrier - in the big extension "The Kraken" that includes hours of new content, and a sinister new threat.
The Kraken expansion adds hours of narrative-driven content with a brand-new storyline and location, as well as a wealth of new weapons, implants and armor to discover and craft. On the outskirts of Jericho City, enter the VBS Krakow, a massive decommissioned aircraft carrier retrofitted as a retreat for the rich and famous. Battle robot pirates, deranged security systems, and an imposing new boss, each with their own unique combat mechanics. Fight hard and uncover the truth behind the desolate military vessel!
The Surge 2’s Kraken Expansion and Premium Edition will both be available to download on January 16. In addition, all Surge 2 Season Pass owners will get an exclusive 48 hours early access, meaning they can play starting January 14.
