Retropolis 2: Never Say Goodbye is the next in the Retropolis miniseries, offering up more extendo-arm puzzling and neo-noir narrative goodness. The first episode is now available in early access on Quest and Oculus PC.

Much like the original The Secret of Retropolis (2021), Retropolis 2 is said to combine classic point-and-click adventuring with immersive cinematography.

Like the first, players use Philip Log’s patented extendo-arms to collect items from afar and overcome obstacles. This time around though you’ll do have more to contend with, including logic puzzles, rotation mechanics, and movement between different environments. Developer Peanut Button says the new entry in the series will offer “a more challenging adventure with a substantially longer playtime.”

Here’s how the studio describes the game:

Retropolis 2: Never Say Goodbye is set a year after the events depicted in The Secret of Retropolis, and continues the story of Philip Log, the hard-boiled robo-detective, and Jenny Montage, the automated femme fatale that just can’t keep herself out of trouble. Nonetheless, Retropolis 2: Never Say Goodbye welcomes new visitors to the city of robots, and can be experienced as its own miniseries.

The first episode is now live on Quest and Oculus PC, which will include a season pass to all four episodes releasing later this year. You can also wishlist the game on Steam here.

    Never even heard of the first one, is it on Steam?

      I guess you must have bought it during those -95% steam discounts. Classic PCVR user. Quantity over quality, digital trash collecting and not even knowing what you own already.

        Yep, I buy my games on sale/bundles, never buying a game on day one as I still have such a big backlog with so many great titles. I have many MANY quality games. Why should I not get my games when they are on sale? I’m not a moron like you. I can buy many quality games when they are on sale, so I can have many games instead of just one or two. I don’t need to play a game on day one, these days it takes a couple of months before the actual games is running properly anyway.
