It’s certainly been a year for Spiders’ GreedFall 2: The Dying World, especially after its underwhelming early access debut in September 2024. Lay-offs affected the animation and rigging teams last July, but the RPG has added new regions and quests while overhauling combat.
What’s next? Dropping the “2” from its name.
As announced in a Steam Community post covering the year that was, the developer felt the name to be a “little confusing at times as the game isn’t technically a sequel.” Since a “lick of paint” was required, it’s going with just GreedFall: The Dying World in the future.
“The game is still within the universe of GreedFall, so you’ll still find everything you love in it, from the lore to the story itself.”
That’s not all, of course, as Spiders is prepping an “important announcement” for the release date with more details coming in January 2026. Considering delays for content updates to improve the overall game and what’s still to come, it should be interesting to see where it lands, especially if it wants to avoid the busier second half of the year.
GreedFall 2: The Dying World is available on PC via Steam Early Access, but is also coming to Xbox Series X/S and PS5.
