High on Life 2 Launches on Xbox, PS5, PC via Game Pass
High on Life 2, the sequel to the 2022 first-person shooter from Squanch Games, launched on February 13, 2026, for Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5, and PC, with day-one availability on Xbox Game Pass. A Nintendo Switch 2 version is scheduled for April 20, 2026. Developed and published by Squanch Games, the title builds on the original's blend of comedic sci-fi action and talking weapons, drawing comparisons to the humor style of Rick and Morty, though original creator Justin Roiland is not involved.
The story resumes shortly after the events of the first game, where the silent protagonist, a bounty hunter, had dismantled the G3 Cartel, an alien group that harvested humans as narcotics. Now a celebrated figure across the universe, the hunter faces a new crisis when their sister, Lizzie, joins a terrorist organization and becomes the target of a massive bounty. She uncovers a plot by a powerful pharmaceutical company to capture humans and convert them into legal recreational drugs. Teaming up with mentor Gene, Lizzie, and the Gatlian aliens who resemble sentient guns, the protagonist turns against fellow hunters to thwart the scheme and protect humanity.
