As Game Prices Go Up, This Sequel To 2022's Breakout Hit Will Not Cost More
Briefly

FuturLab announced PowerWash Simulator 2 will launch at $25, maintaining the same price as its predecessor despite rising costs. The developer recognizes financial constraints of players, positioning the game as a wellbeing tool for relaxation. The sequel builds on the original's success with new features like split-screen co-op, online campaign support, better visuals, and pettable cats. Thanks to the favorable reception and sales of the first game, FuturLab aims to keep the sequel affordable and supports it with free updates. Release details for PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC are pending.
"FuturLab acknowledges that in the current cost-of-living climate, players often have limited budgets for games and entertainment. For many, PowerWash Simulator is more than just a game, it's a wellbeing tool, a way to decompress and reclaim a moment of calm."
"The choice to stick with the original price comes from a place of genuine appreciation. The team has been genuinely moved by the response to the original game and its DLC packs, and the hope is that continued support into the sequel will allow them to keep this accessible price point locked in at launch, with no plans to raise it."
