Published , by Charles Singletary Jr

After bringing the original Windjammers back to life on modern consoles, Dotemu has announced Windjammers 2 for PC and Nintendo Switch. It will launch October 23, 2018, and Dotemu's remake of the original Windjammers will be coming to the hybrid console as well.

Windjammers 2 will feature enhanced online multiplayer gameplay modes and single-player modes for honing your disc-throwing craft offline. The sequel will also have hand-drawn 2D animations, new stages, new characters, and new power moves all at a $14.99 price point.

“Growing the Windjammers community over the past two years has been a lot of fun, and with that growth, we see a great opportunity to continue to innovate on its timeless and fun gameplay,” said Cyrille Imbert, CEO of Dotemu, in the press release. “Thanks to that experience, we have a clear idea of how to make Windjammers 2 as fun and entertaining as the original.” 

Windjammers 2 launches October 23, 2018, and you should stay tuned to Shacknews for additional updates.
