Grime II Unleashes New Gameplay Trailer Packed With Brutal Metroidvania Action

Get ready to return to a world where flesh meets art in unsettling harmony—Grime II has dropped a brand-new gameplay trailer, giving us a fresh look at its gruesome combat, bizarre environments, and innovative mechanics. Revealed by publisher Kwalee and developer Clover Bite, the trailer offers a first taste of the mind-bending sequel to 2021’s acclaimed Grime—and it’s shaping up to be even weirder and more intense.

A New Land, A New Form

In Grime II, you once again take on the role of a Formless—a mysterious, art-born entity that doesn’t just slay enemies but absorbs them, gaining new powers and forms in the process. As a “stealer of forms,” you’ll explore a strange new region of the Grime universe, where every corner hides otherworldly secrets, grotesque monsters, and civilizations carved from living sculpture.

Your main tools? Mold summons—absorb the essence of defeated foes and bend them to your will. Throw, stun, summon, or shoot your way through a world that constantly challenges your reflexes and creativity.

Key Features in Grime II:

• Mold Mechanics – Defeat enemies to unlock their form as usable molds. Use them to unleash devastating attacks, aid in exploration, or call forth brutal summons during combat.
• Environmental Combat – The world around you isn’t just for show. Smash enemies with collapsing terrain or weaponized debris—but beware, they can do the same.
• Parry & Grasp System – Time your parries to stagger foes or reach out with grasping tendrils to absorb them and unlock their powers.
• Living World Design – Discover environments built from painted nails, shattered ceramics, and surreal architectural forms, each home to unique NPCs and intricate lore.
• Custom Playstyles – Mix and match weapons, abilities, and molds to suit your approach, whether you’re all about precision parries or chaotic mold-fueled destruction.

Grime II doesn’t just promise more of the beautifully grotesque—it’s evolving the formula with more freedom, more tactics, and more ways to turn your enemies into tools of destruction.

Stay tuned as Grime II prepares to crawl, slash, and ooze its way to PC in 2025. You can wishlist the game now on Steam.

If you missed the first Grime, now’s the time to get absorbed—because this sequel isn’t pulling any punches.
