Power-disc slinging action comes your way next month, as the Windjammers 2 release date has been revealed today, and it’s pegged to spin out this January 20, 2022 for both consoles and PC! It’s also confirmed to be available on Xbox Game Pass on day one, and will offer backwards compatibilty to next-gen platforms at launch too.

Here’s the new release date trailer revealing some new footage to hype up the experience for fans.

Accompanying the new video is a post from the PlayStation Blog describing how Dotemu has worked hard to make sure that the sequel stays true to the spirit of the original Windjammers while also adding some new elements and mechanics to keep the game fresh for players new and old. Here’s an overview of what fans can expect from the sequel:

• 10 playable characters, including returning champions and new faces
• New gameplay mechanics for even more depth
• 10 courts with different shapes and features
• An epic arcade mode with bonus games and challenging matches
• Online modes: play casually with friends or climb the leaderboard in the ranked league

We last heard from Windjammers 2 when Dotemu announced its Open Beta a few months back, and you can read about that story here.
