Reikon Reveals Ruiner 2, a Co-Op Cyberpunk Action RPG With Switchable Shells

The sequel pivots the series toward build-driven depth with theory-crafting at the core.

Overview

  • Up to three players can team up, pooling a combined roster of six Shells to coordinate synergies in co-op.
  • The new Shell System lets players command a roster of up to three combat bodies and swap between them instantly during fights.
  • Shells are earned by defeating bosses, and each features four skills with branching nodes that meaningfully alter playstyle.
  • Progression layers include a hacker-wide Neural Network passive tree, resource-governed gear loadouts with trade-offs, risk-reward crafting, and an endless endgame.
  • The game is confirmed for PC via Steam and Epic Games Store with wishlisting live, no release date announced, and a stated no pay-to-win policy for microtransactions.
