Elevate your enterprise data technology and strategy at Transform 2021. Slime Rancher is an indie hit. The 2017 simulation about raising slimes sold more than 3 million copies (after hitting Steam Early Access in 2016) for Monomi Park, which is a fantastic debut for any game studio.Today at Microsofts E3 event, Monomi Park announced Slime Rancher 2. Itll be coming in 2022 for Xbox Series X/S, but its also going to launch on Xbox Game Pass as well. The trailer didnt say PC, but considering the first launched there, Id imagine well see it on PC as well.Slime Ranchers gameplay loop focuses on raising slimes, making money off your effort, and breeding new critters. The slimes are cute, and its fun to vacuum them up as youre ranching your way on a planet thousands of light years away from Earth.Slime Rancher won awards, showing that a game about farming could be about more than raising crops and cows.GamesBeatGamesBeat's creed when covering the game industry is "where passion meets business."
