![]() Monstrum 2 is coming to early access in the next few months, and is hosting a closed beta session this weekend. Some will specialize in melee, others will lurk more in the shadows and use the element of surprise. Play as a monster, and you’ll be able to choose from a variety of mutated nightmares that are the result of experiments that have taken place (and went horribly wrong) – each one equipped with unique abilities to help in tracking and killing a prisoner or two. Rather than just changing your loadout before each match, like is common in games of this type, Monstrum 2 procedurally generates the game map and the obstacles and opportunities that it brings with it, including the ability to pick up items that can help you in your quest to escape if you play as a prisoner. Taking place in a metal fortress out at sea that’s been repurposed as a prison, you play as either one of the prisoners that’s looking for a means to escape or as a mutated sea monster that wants nothing more than to turn those prisoners into a meal. It’s a genre that’s been a bit hit and miss if you look at games like Evolve and the recent Predator: Hunting Grounds, but the prospect of seeing one in Monstrum’s setting is certainly an appealing one. Instead, Monster 2 follows the asymmetric multiplayer formula. ![]() But unlike the original, which was ported to console as recently as May of this year, Monstrum 2 isn’t a single player affair. Monstrum, a bit of a niche survival horror hit that came out back in 2015 for PC, is getting a sequel and it’s coming to PC soon through Steam’s early access program. Monstrum 2 heads into closed beta before early access Exploring a couple of new releases and one that’s coming out soon, we take a look at games like Monstrum 2, Pushy and Pully in Blockland for the PS4, The Alto Collection and the new Linkin Park DLC for Beat Saber. ![]()
