During the PC Gaming Show, 11 bit studios released the official demo trailer for Moonlighter 2: The Endless Vault. Think you have what it takes to go on an adventure for treasure? To never back down from danger in the pursuit of something shiny? Well, take a crack at the Moonlighter 2: The Endless Vault demo, arriving as part of Steam Next Fest, beginning June 9, 2025.

Moonlighter 2: The Endless Vault is published by 11 bit studios and developed by Digital Sun, the Spanish team behind the original game, its DLC Between Dimensions, and other notable projects like Cataclismo. The sequel to the beloved action-RPG once again blends thrilling dungeon-crawling combat with the ever-satisfying hustle of shopkeeping. But this time, it’s bigger and bolder across the board.

With vibrant 3D visuals that echo the charm of the original, new inventory mechanics that add depth and strategy, enhanced shop customization, and a treasure trove of new weapons and merchant boosts, Moonlighter 2 levels up the adventure in every way.

When Steam Next Fest kicks off on June 9, all players will be able to jump into the demo and get a first taste of the vault’s riches.

 

What to expect from full-version of Moonlighter 2: The Endless Vault?

A day passing as slowly as the current of a winding, lazy river? That’s not in Will’s itinerary. Sure, he may get a moment to polish some of the goods on display in the shop or tweak his shop’s decor—but once those doors swing open and customers start pouring in, it’s all about charm, shopkeeper’s strategy, and the fine art of negotiation. But when the last deal is struck and the business day ends, there’s no time for a well-earned nap. That’s when adventure begins.

In Moonlighter 2: The Endless Vault, many new challenges await. Featuring innovative mechanics, an expanded arsenal of weapons and gear, uncharted biomes teeming with treasures and enemies to vanquish in combat, and a fresh story to uncover, Will and his companions find themselves stranded in the mysterious village of Tresna, trapped in a dimension far from home. To get back, they’ll need to master both trade and blade.

Only in Moonlighter 2: The Endless Vault will you:

Revive Tresna’s Splendor – You’ll invest in the village’s development by supporting local businesses, upgrading gear, and unlocking new opportunities. As Tresna flourishes, so will your shop’s fortunes.

Loot Like a Legend – You’ll prepare your gear and steel your nerves in a search for unimaginable treasures. But beware: the farther you go, the higher the stakes—and the greater the risks.

Master the Art of Shopkeeping – You’ll transform your hard-earned loot into profits by charming customers and haggling like a pro. Customize your shop with dazzling decorations to draw even more eager buyers.


Check out the demo when it drops June 9, 2025. Moonlighter 2: The Endless Vault is set to launch later in 2025 on PC via Steam, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5.
