According to a press release from BlankMediaGames, the company is set to release Town of Salem 2 into Early Access on May 26th, 2023. The sequel to the well-received social deduction game, Town of Salem, is expected to deliver an even more thrilling and challenging experience for players.
In Town of Salem 2, the titular town is once again plagued by turmoil as the Coven faction takes over. Players must either strive for victory as a Town member or operate from the shadows as part of the Coven, Neutral, or Apocalypse factions. The game introduces a plethora of new roles, each boasting unique abilities that can be leveraged by players.
The addition of the Apocalypse Faction and the Four Horsemen game mode contribute an extra layer of strategy to the gameplay. BlankMediaGames’ CEO, Josh Brittain, shared his excitement, stating, “With so many new features and roles to discover, Town of Salem 2 is an exciting and unique experience that you won’t want to miss.”
Players now have increased control over their roles with the use of scrolls and cursed scrolls, while the option to ban specific roles or apply game modifiers allows for a more customized experience. Character, pet, and house interior customization further enhance this aspect of the game.
Communication is streamlined, with players now able to tag other players, roles, and keywords in the chat. Private custom lobbies offer an easy way to invite friends using a six-letter code or to join other games by browsing available custom lobbies. The game also features free movement in lobbies, during night phases, and as a ghost, a notable improvement from its predecessor.
As the battle between the Coven and the Town of Salem intensifies, players can decide whether to aid the fight against the Coven or join their ranks to seize control of the town.
