At this year’s Gamescom, we had the pleasure of chatting with Yonatan Tepperberg, Clover Bite’s Technical Artist, about the highly anticipated sequel to Grime, namely Grime 2. Grime 1 had already wowed players with its surreal world and unique gameplay mechanics, and Grime 2 promises to take that experience to a whole new level.
| By the way, you can watch the interview with Yonatan down below, and among all those who comment on an imaginative name for the opponent in 1:14, our partner will give away 6 Steam keys for the predecessor Grime 1. |

Anticipating Grime 2: What’s in Store for You
Graphics and Surreal World
One of the most noticeable improvements in Grime 2 is the graphics. The developers have taken it up a notch and created an even more impressive, surreal world. Players will once again be immersed in an organic and interconnected environment rendered in eerie sidescroller 3D. This world is even more layered and offers even more mysterious secrets in the form of sniveling caves and featureless deserts. The graphics are really imaginative and superbly realized.
Enemy AI and game mechanics
The AI of the enemies in Grime 2 has also been revised and improved. In Grime 1, the enemies were already fearsome, but in Grime 2 they are born from the world itself, resulting in an even more dynamic challenge. Players will have to adapt to new tactics and attack strategies, as the enemies are now even more unpredictables. Defending, smashing, and absorbing enemies to gain strength remains a central part of the gameplay and has been further refined.
Living weapons and skill development
Another exciting feature in Grime 2 is the continuation of the idea of living weapons. Players can fluidly switch between different weapons made from living creatures that change during combat. From claw swords to centipede whips, Grime 2 offers a greater variety of weapons and play styles. Skill progression has also been deepened, with players able to hunt and devour challenging monsters to customize further and individualize their abilities.
Fearsome bosses
The fearsome bosses who challenged players in Grime 1 are back in Grime 2 and bigger than ever. Players must prepare for epic battles and adapt strategies to withstand these gigantic creatures. What makes this game special is that defeating these bosses affects not only combat but also movement. Players will gain breakthrough abilities after devouring the bosses that will change the gameplay in unique ways.
Overall, Grime 2 promises to surpass the experience of Grime 1 in every way. With more impressive graphics, even more surreal worlds, more sophisticated enemy AI, and a deepening of the game’s mechanics, Grime 2 should be a feast for fans of the first part and new players alike. We’re excited to take a closer look at the game when it’s finally released. Grime 2 will probably be released for PC and the current consoles.
