Freedom Planet 2 is an indie platform video game developed and published by GalaxyTrail for Windows, and published by Xseed Games on home consoles. 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.

A fair 1up over the first game, if you liked the first game then this game should be right down your alley. Basically takes the gameplay the first had and improves on it in seemingly every metric.
Great continuation of the OST of the original. Haven't played far but am enjoying it so far
In my opinion, this game is a better evolution of the Sonic the Hedgehog series than we actually got. The level designs are incredible, the characters' designs and personalities are all great, the music rules, and the writing is great too. Honestly, I don't really have anything to complain about here, it's a fantastic game.
