Developer Strange Scaffold (I Am Your Beast, CLICKOLDING, Space Warlord Baby Trading Simulator) and publisher Frosty Pop today announce El Paso, Elsewhere 2, a sequel to the 2023 neo-noir shooter.
El Paso, Elsewhere 2 is a third-person shooter where players battle through 20+ handcrafted levels filled with sinister gargoyles, possessed animatronics, and gun-toting vampires. Like the first game, El Paso, Elsewhere 2 has fast-paced combat combined with brooding, introspective storytelling in otherworldly environments.
Following the events of El Paso, Elsewhere, this sequel puts players back in control of protagonist James Savage as he journeys across the United States slaying monsters and sealing away insidious supernatural forces.
Betrayed by a close friend, James is dragged into the Void itself to repay a terrible debt to an eldritch horror. He once killed the monster he loved to save the world. Now, he must save his betrayer to save himself.
Key Features:
- Use vampiric abilities to dive off of thin air, backflip off of enemies, and feed on the blood that erupts from your opponents when you stake them.
- Take your fight to reality-defying nightclubs, multi-dimensional libraries, eerie suburbia, and more lairs of eldritch horrors, in 20+ action-packed levels.
- Wield 15 weapons ranging from Western revolvers, to automatic shotguns, to a tommy gun that fires vampire-killing stakes.
- Confront Frankenstein, goblin shamans, biblically-accurate angels, and a horde of supernatural enemies both new and old to the series.
- Fully-voiced cutscenes deliver a new neo-noir tale of supernatural grief and recovery, from the award-winning team behind I Am Your Beast and Space Warlord Baby Trading Simulator.
- Original hip-hop horror rap album produced by RJ Lake (I Am Your Beast, UNBEATABLE, El Paso, Elsewhere).
- Multi-genre pulse-pounding instrumental OST by Chicago-based music producer kalibration.
“Strange Scaffold nearly closed in the process of making the first El Paso, Elsewhere. It’s a game I never thought we’d have a chance to build a sequel for,” says Strange Scaffold studio head Xalavier Nelson Jr., in a press release. “So, we’re going to build on the things that worked in the original game, including our existing pieces of art, to create exciting gameplay we never could have even imagined before. I can’t wait for folks to see how far James Savage can go.”
El Paso, Elsewhere launches on PC via Steam and on Xbox Series X|S next year.
