Playdate is officially getting a Second Season with ‘about a dozen games’ next year

Horror added some big news to its fall Playdate Update: Season Two is happening, and we’ll see it next year. Can I get a “hell yes!”? It’s been two years since Season One dropped, and in the past, it’s been unclear if another one will ever follow. But on today’s live stream, Panic’s Video & Podcast host Christa Mrgan confirmed that Season Two is over, and “will happen next year.” Solace in killing the Stereo Dock, perhaps?

There are many details we don’t yet know about Season Two, such as how much it will cost (Season One included a Playdate purchase), but Engadget has reached out to Panic for comment and will update this post. when we hear back. The first season brought two games a week over 12 weeks, for a total of 24 games. According to Mrgan, Season Two so far includes “about a dozen shows.” There is also a “surprise surprise” that we are not allowed to know details about yet, and my curiosity is piqued.

In addition to the Season Two announcement, the fall update also highlighted other upcoming Catalog games to look out for in the coming weeks and 2025: Owlet Engangaa metroidvania about an owl who is afraid of flying; A cometa thriller about a girl who is forced to face her fear of the dark after her brother goes missing; Office Chair Curlingwhich is exactly what it sounds and looks completely absurd at best; They are not smarta fun word puzzle game; a pinball game called Devils in the Moon from the makers of Tetris-like, A frog; and an uphill boat racing game, Rowboat Rally.
