The Xbox Games Showcase 2025 kicked off with an unexpected treat: the world premiere of High on Life 2. That’s right—Squanch Games is back with a sequel to their wild and irreverent first-person shooter, and it looks just as bizarre and hilarious as fans hoped.

High on Life 2 Launches This Winter

Squanch Games confirmed that High on Life 2 will release later this year, with a target launch window set for Winter 2025. The game will be available for Xbox Series X|S and PC. It's still unclear whether it will be a timed exclusive or launch on other platforms as well.

Even better, the sequel will be a day-one release on Xbox Game Pass, meaning subscribers can dive into the madness at no additional cost.

More Guns, More Jokes, More Chaos

In High on Life 2, players will explore a twisted, alien-infested universe while uncovering a galactic conspiracy threatening the fate of humanity. The game will build upon the original’s gameplay systems while preserving its signature visual style and offbeat humor.

Expect intense combat, bizarre moments, and an even crazier cast of talking alien weapons as you shoot, stab, and grind your way through vibrant new environments.
