I picked up Slime Rancher 2 along with the Entire Assassin’s Creed Bundle (it was only $70 for me, so why not?) today. I wanted to give it a try after first playing the earliest version on Xbox Cloud Gaming. I have to say, this one feels a lot more forgiving. I feel like i’m drowning in Chickens within days. For context this is my Stony Hen Coop after a day:
I also kept getting a ton of the rare slimes in the game. I saw two golden slimes in the 2 hours i played and the lucky slime too:
This game has a new weather system which I really like. I had a twister spawn in and some Dervish slimes showed up. That’s what the main screenshot is of. A dervish slim popped up right as Lightning Struck. I’m hoping there will be new Weather specific slimes, because i love the idea of them being specific to certain weather types.
I also have been collecting the tabby slimes (my favorites), i have 4 right now and an exclusive coop for them:
On top of that i made most of my fortune so far from cotton slimes. They’ve been really easy to keep fed which is nice. I have a garden that produces their favorite vegetable. I get about 25 a harvest:
Overall i’m really liking this one. It feels like a much more refined version of the first one. I’m really excited to see where this goes during the final release (whenever that is)
Looking at the Steam news they still seem to be a bit slow. There was a six month gap between a minor version and version 6. That could be just because Version 6 is a major update though

I love reading these daily games posts. They usually sound lovely, and either show me new things or remind me of a fun game I used to play.
Cheers man.
Last I checked on Slime Rancher 2, the early access updates were coming out abysmally slow. How’s it doing these days?
