It was good news when SteamWorld Dig 2 was announced earlier this week, leading off the Nintendo Switch Nindies Showcase. After the impressive success of the original a direct sequel always seemed on the cards, and over the past few years Image & Form had often suggested as much.

Now that it's out there, the studio has published an updated Engine Room video on its YouTube channel; an interesting segment tackles the 'leaked' SteamWorld Quest name from last year; it turns out the truth behind it relates to a funding application and the desire to keep the sequel as a surprise.

SteamWorld Dig 2 currently has a tentative release window on Switch for the Summer, so we'll no doubt see more of it soon.
