Re:Turn 2 – Runaway to Launch Digitally on Steam, Xbox and Nintendo Switch Next Week

A sequel to Red Ego Games sprite styled side-scrolling mystery thriller Re:Turn – One Way Trip, known as Re:Turn 2 – Runaway, will launch digitally onto Steam, Xbox and Nintendo Switch platforms on 28th January 2022.

Much like the original game, of which we reviewed positively in 2020, Re:Turn 2 – Runaway will be a tense, character-driven psychological horror experience that see’s our protagonist, Saki and her fiancé, Sen, trapped on an abandoned train and haunted by an evil spirit. In order to escape this nightmare they must free trapped souls from the clutches of the evil which has possessed them and solve puzzles along the way.

Building on the saga of protagonist Saki as she battles the evils within the abandoned passenger train and other locations, Re:Turn 2 boasts completely reworked, vibrant, hand-illustrated in-game visuals and animations as well as a full voice acting and brand new sound track, as explained by Omar Bik, Founder of Red Ego Games:

“Our experiences launching the original Re:Turn and the feedback we received from media and players alike has really helped shape how we approach our future projects. It was clear to us that we had the pillars in place to deliver the game experience we wanted and had so much more of Saki’s story to share so we’re excited to share this new chapter with everyone.  Rebuilding the game experience almost completely from the ground up with a new engine, revamped visuals and full voice acting has really allowed us to push ourselves as developers and to take Re:Turn 2 in new directions with a real emphasis on horror and scares”.

Re:Turn 2 – Runaway will be available digitally on Steam, Xbox and Nintendo Switch from 28th January 2022. A playable demo is also available on Steam.
