Smilegate announced on Friday, the 18th, that Veewo Games’ multiplayer roguelike action title “Neon Abyss 2” has officially launched worldwide in Early Access on Steam.

“Neon Abyss 2” offers an expanded roguelike shooting action experience compared to its predecessor. Set in a cyberpunk universe, the game combines explosive run-and-gun combat with endless item combinations, allowing players to enjoy a fresh battle every time. The previous title, “Neon Abyss,” received a “Very Positive” rating on Steam and sold over 1 million copies worldwide. This highly anticipated sequel introduces a new multiplayer mode for up to four players, enhancing the fun of team-based gameplay—something not available in the original.

The game features over 30 types of weapons and items, including guns, bats, swords, and magic-based gear. Players can freely mix and match weapons to create their own custom builds, forming unique synergies and combos. Randomly generated dungeon layouts and strategic boss fights preserve the core thrill of roguelike shooting action while delivering a deeper gameplay experience.

“Neon Abyss 2” introduces official Korean language support, which was not available in the previous installment—allowing Korean gamers to enjoy a more immersive experience. As the Korean co-publishing partner, Smilegate is leading localized marketing campaigns and supporting the Steam launch while actively contributing to the improvement of Korean localization quality.

To celebrate its Early Access launch, “Neon Abyss 2” is available on Steam with a 10% discount for two weeks. In addition, Korean fans can participate in events hosted on “Inven” and “Minimap” by leaving comments or messages of support for a chance to win “Neon Abyss 2” game keys and other prizes.
