PixelJunk Eden 2 Arrives on PS5, Offering a Unique and Surreal Platforming Experience
London, UK – October 13, 2025 – The highly anticipated PixelJunk Eden 2 has launched on PlayStation 5, delivering a visually striking and unconventional platforming experience. Developed by Q-Games, the sequel to the cult classic PixelJunk Eden tasks players with guiding a “speck” thru a vibrant, bioluminescent world, focusing on momentum-based movement and symbiotic relationships with the environment.
PixelJunk Eden 2 distinguishes itself from traditional platformers with its emphasis on fluid, physics-driven gameplay. Players don’t directly control jumps; rather, they swing, bounce, and glide using the speck’s grappling ability and the level’s organic structures. This creates a unique sense of flow and requires mastering momentum to navigate increasingly complex levels. The game builds upon the original’s core mechanics, introducing new abilities and a more expansive world to explore.
The game’s narrative, while minimalist, centers around collecting ”pigments” to revitalize the world and unlock new areas. Players cultivate symbiotic relationships with flora and fauna, using them to propel themselves forward and solve environmental puzzles. The aesthetic is a key component, boasting a mesmerizing visual style and an atmospheric soundtrack that enhances the sense of otherworldly exploration.
PixelJunk Eden 2 is available now on the PlayStation Store. Players seeking a departure from conventional platforming and an immersive, visually captivating experience will find much to appreciate in this unusual title.
