The Slay the Spire 2 developer, Mega Crit, plans to drop a beta patch on November 12, 2026. What makes this patch important is it'll be the first time they'll have experimental solo and co-op game modes. It's the first time players will be able to get hands on with any form of multiplayer, so all those looking forward to playing online will get a chance to play the beta in Steam.
Mega Crit brings experimental multiplayer to the roguelike deckbuilder
The developer announced the November 12th date in their Neowsletter. When they mention November 12th as the date for the patch, it's in the context of this is what they're planning to do right now. They've been tight-lipped about the new game modes to keep them impactful. Co-founder Casey Yano did mention these new modes will be playable in single player and multiplayer.
The version of the beta patch is 0.111.0. It's a continuation of the last beta patch that released on August 13, 2026. There's more they're planning on adding to the main branch.
Some of the things include rework on cards and balance changes. Other things include performance upgrades, Indonesian localization, and idle animations for low HP.
The last Slay the Spire 2 update we talked about had some of the same balance and stability discussions going on. This new update also continues down that path as there'll be structural game changes added. As for if we'll see an alternate Act 2 or new character added with this particular update, that's something they've yet to say.
