Foreword
Hello everyone! I am 011 Games, the developer of Geometry Arena 2.
Today, Geometry Arena 2 has been updated to v1.0.0, exiting Early Access and officially launching.
Thanks to everyone's support and feedback, I have addressed many issues from the early versions, expanded the game's content and gameplay, and gained a lot of valuable experience.
Thank you for being part of this journey!
In the future, I might write a dev log to share my thoughts and experiences from the past two years. But for now, let's focus on this Official Launch!

Future Plans
The Full Release marks the completion of the major planned features, a solidified gameplay loop, and a high degree of overall polish.
However, I still have plans for further improvements and some experimental ideas for Geometry Arena 2.
There is also room for content expansion, possibly including new Weapons, Bodies, or Upgrades. Due to the varied synergies between game content, I want them to be unique enough while offering diverse combinations, which requires time to design and polish.
Since these concepts are still in early development and subject to change, I won't go into detail here. If you have any suggestions, please feel free to share them with me!
About the Price
There is a 22% launch discount for the next two weeks, matching the historical low price of Early Access.
Additionally, Geometry Arena 2 is available in a bundle with its predecessor, Geometry Arena, for an additional 10% discount.
There will not be a lower price for at least the next 6 months, so please buy with confidence.
