Inti Creates sent out the following
– Inti Creates and Sunsoft are proud to announce a Steam version of their critically acclaimed Blaster Master Zero 2 title. Announced during their panel at Anime NYC 2019, Blaster Master Zero 2 is making its Steam debut on November 29, 2019 for $9.99 / €9.99 / £8.99. The Steam page is now open and available for wishlisting.
The story of Blaster Master Zero 2 begins a few months after the events of the first game (released on March 9th, 2017), where the main protagonist Jason saves planet Earth from the mutants. Jason’s partner and support droid of their battle tank SOPHIA III, Eve, was infected by mutant cells that have been slowly corrupting her body, so together with Jason and Fred the frog, they board their new battle tank G-SOPHIA and begin an intergalactic journey to Eve’s home planet Sophia in hopes of finding a cure for the mutant infection.

A perfect blend of action-adventure through outer space and the signature Blaster Master gameplay creates a perfect formula for a fun new experience.
Features:
- G-SOPHIA’s Gaea System is the key to maximum mutant blasting efficiency!
The Gaea System converts the energy created by the impact of falling from tall heights or taking damage, then turns that energy into SP. By making good use of the terrain, more and more SP can be recovered, allowing Jason to use more of G-SOPHIA’s sub-weapons.
Mastering the Gaia System brings out G-SOPHIA’s full potential, allowing players to traverse stages in an ultra-satisfying way.
- Get familiar with Jason’s new technique, the BLAST COUNTER.
Jason’s got a new trick up his sleeve! In top-down view stages, Jason can initiate a BLAST COUNTER at the moment an enemy makes an attack, allowing him to deliver a powerful counterattack.
Getting a feel for BLAST COUNTERS allows you to dish out lots of damage and make good use of your wide variety of gun levels and sub-weapons. This is the key to clearing top-down view stages with speed!
- Power up G-SOPHIA and Jason as you travel across the galaxy!
Search high and low across the planets you visit to find hidden maps for small planetoids in their orbit. Explore a wide variety of planetoids and find upgrades for G-SOPHIA and Jason.
- A whole new group of Metal Attackers with their own pilots and support droids takes the stage!
Throughout his journey, Jason crosses paths with a motley cast of Metal Attacker battle-tank pilots and their respective support droids. Sometimes they’re friend, sometimes they’re foe.
Copen Makes His Blaster Master Zero 2 Debut!
To celebrate the release of the Steam version of Blaster Master Zero 2, Inti Creates is also releasing a brand new playable DLC character for the game! Copen, the anti-hero of Inti’s flagship Azure Striker Gunvolt series and main protagonist of their most recent title, Gunvolt Chronicles: Luminous Avenger iX, sets off on an intergalactic adventrure in his Blaster Master Zero 2 debut. The Copen character DLC will be available for both Nintendo Switch and Steam on November 29, 2019, the same day as the release of the Steam version.
Copen brings his lightning-fast, high-flying brand of gameplay you know from his native titles like Luminous Avenger iX straight into the mutant blasting world of BMZ2. “He has everything from his trusty partner Lola, to the special weapons and core gameplay elemtns you are already familiar with if you played one of his games,” says Matt Papa, producer at Inti Creates. “The entire BMZ2 development team did an unbelievable job taking all of his core elements and transporting them so seamlessly into Blaster Master Zero 2 that would never guess they were originally from another game if you didn’t know any better.”
See Copen in action in the official trailer:
Just like we did with our DLC characters in Blaster Master Zero 1, Copen will be available to download for free for two weeks after release until December 13,, 2019! After the initial promotional period, he will be available for purchase for $1.99.
