Squanch Games revealed the first official trailer for High On Life 2 exclusively at the Xbox Games Showcase during Summer Game Fest.

The gaming phenomenon first took the first-person shooter genre by storm with its initial installment, High On Life, in 2022. Since then, the indie studio has accrued an outstanding player base of over 20 million. This winter, it is set to infiltrate consoles globally with its latest hilarious action-packed adventure sequel.

The High on Life 2 trailer marks the first appearance of several additional alien weapons and traversal capabilities, emboldening users to embrace next-level combat and visionary scenes. With a wider arsenal and an all-new skateboard, fans can expect to shoot, stab, and skate through various exotic locales during gameplay.

But what exactly is High on Life 2 about?

You’ve done it. You’ve taken down an intergalactic cartel, brought humanity back from the brink of extinction, and hunted dangerous bounties to the far corners of the galaxy. Bounty hunting has brought you fortune, fame and love! But when a mysterious figure from your past reappears and puts a price on your sister’s head, your cushy life becomes chaotic.

Do you have what it takes to risk it all and bring down an intergalactic conspiracy that once again threatens your favorite species (humans)?

High On Life 2 is all about you and your beloved rag-tag team of alien misfits shooting, stabbing, and skating your way through weird alien worlds all across the galaxy to blow up an evil pharmaceutical conglomerate hell-bent on putting a price tag on human life!

The game puts its players on a cosmic quest against an intergalactic conspiracy that threatens the fate of humanity. Longtime followers will be enthused to recognize multiple characters from their arsenals, making an epic return, including Gus, Sweezy, Creature and Knifey, the latter of which was at the forefront of 2023’s High On Knife DLC.

Key features to expect:
  • Blast your way through enemies with an arsenal of charismatic alien firepower in high-octane, hyperactive combat.
  • Kickflip alien cops in the face and grind your way to freedom with your brand-new Skateboard.
  • Get up close and personal with an eccentric cast of bizarre and subversive lifeforms voiced by an All-Star Comedy Cast.
  • Wreak havoc at the galaxy’s biggest convention, an alien zoo for humans, and a luxury futuristic cruise liner on your cosmic quest to Take Down Big Pharma.

Squanch Games is primed and ready to go!

During High On Life’s debut, it quickly became the biggest Xbox Game Pass release of 2022, the largest 3rd Party Launch in Game Pass history, and the biggest single-player launch ever on Game Pass for the era. With a resumé already packed with achievements, Squanch Games is prepped to once again redefine gaming with its vivid medley of artistic, high-impact, and comedic verve with High on Life 2.

Squanch Games promises a showstopping escapade, available now for wishlisting on Xbox, PlayStation, Steam, and the Epic Games Store. High On Life 2 will also appear Day One on Xbox Game Pass, a surefire success following the accolades collected by the original title on the service.
