It is the sequel to Freedom Planet, originally developed as a Sonic the Hedgehog fangame. It was released for Windows on September 13, 2022, which was followed by ports on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S on April 4, 2024. Like its predecessor, it is inspired by Sega Genesis games. It follows the three-person cast of the original game and new playable panda character Neera Li as they fight the robotic army of Merga, a water dragoness who seeks revenge for ancient atrocities.
Runs well on modern hardware.

Holy moly the music is so lit. Gorgeous character design and game play! [spoiler] (not you ancestral forge) [/spoiler]
After playing the first game, I can't believe the second one was out of the radar for me. Which should be a crime because this is an major step up from FP1. The pixel art, the gameplay, the combat, and everything else is just spectacular. I would definitely recommend this game to Sonic fans and people who like platformers in general.
Liked it a lot, you should try it. Great story, great music. I got lost three times in the levels but its ok x] Honestly I wish to see more success for this game and maybe see a sequel someday.
