Following anEarly Access launch in March 2024,Ender Magnolia: Bloom in the Mistnow has a date for its full release. The sequel to acclaimed 2021 MetroidvaniaEnder Lilies: Quietus of the Knightswill leave Early Access and make its way to PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and PC on Aug 07, 2025.
Binary Haze Interactive is on publishing duties for the game from developers Live Wire and Adglobe. InEarly Access, the sequel has netted Overwhelmingly Positive review status on Steam, and you may get a feel for the journey through the Land of Fumes in the new trailer below.
The story ofEnder Magnoliais set decades after the events of the first game. Artificial life forms now run rampant throughout the land, and it’s up to a corruption-cleansing Attuner named Lilac to set things straight. Players will need to guide Lilac through the land to find the source of the discord between humans and Homunculi, taking on 10 possessed bosses and gaining their abilities in the process.
The 10 abilities earned from bosses each come with three alt-fires, so Lilac will essentially pick up 30 new skills over the course ofEnder Magnolia. Up to four abilities can be equipped at a time, so you’ll be able to mix up your attacks however you see fit. The music pumping behind all the exploratory action once again comes from indie band Mili.
Physical versions will go up for pre-order in Japan soon, and there are also plans for other regions. We’ll have to wait for more information on boxed releases outside of Japan, so stay tuned.
