The sequel features a hand-drawn art style similar to the original game while introducing a new story.

The sequel continues the siblings' story after they escape their homeland and arrive in the unexplored land of Synoraz. A ruthless sorcerer named Ilikun splits the siblings into parallel dimensions, forcing them to work together to complete their mission. They must find their way back to the Courines while navigating danger across these split realities. The gameplay requires players to harness synergetic abilities to overcome magic-infused, straw-made creatures that lurk in the shadows.
Greak 2: Alliance of the Storms launches in 2027 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam. The game features interconnected worlds that players must explore to uncover the secrets of Synoraz. During their journey, the siblings discover the legendary Storm Eagles, an ancient species on the brink of extinction. Players can earn the trust of these mythical beings to help save the last Storm Egg before their lineage is lost forever.
