World of Goo 2 Announced, Out in 2024

The cult classic physics-based sidescrolling puzzler is making a surprise return with an unexpected sequel.

Back in 2008, at a time where the indie gaming scene was barely even in its infancy, World of Goo was released to widespread critical acclaim, and in the years since then, the game’s reputation has only grown among its many fans. And if, for the last 15 years, you’ve been hoping for a sequel- well, finally your prayers have been answered.

At The Game Awards, developer 2D Boy unveiled World of Goo 2. Once again bringing the same gooey gameplay that will see players trying to navigate puzzles in a sidescrolling 2D experience, the sequel is certainly looking like it will capture the vibe and mechanics of its predecessor quite well (not least because of its rather familiar art style). Check out the announcement trailer below.

World of Goo 2 is set to launch at some point in 2024. There’s no word yet on what platforms the game will be available on. Stay tuned for more details in the coming weeks and months.
