Monaco 2 demo by Pocketwatch Games launched during Steam Next Fest
Released in 2013, 2D top-down stealth action game Monaco: What's Yours is Mine received praise for its co-operative focus, allowing up to four players to take part in various heists. The Monaco soundtrack was comprised of vaudeville piano tracks harkening back to early silent movies.

Monaco 2 incorporates procedurally generated 3D environments, offering a new focus on verticality. Pocketwatch Games' sequel offers local and online co-operative play, with a wider selectable character roster than the original. Austin Wintory of The Banner Saga Trilogy and The Pathless reprises his role as series composer.

The playable demo is now available for Windows through Steam. Launched amidst Steam Next Fest, the preview offers two hours of high-stakes co-op thievery for up to four players.


From the Steam page:
Within the demo, you'll dive deep into the heart of Monaco’s criminal underworld. Tackle multiple levels, each with their own unique challenges and opportunities. Experiment with trinket abilities and get the feel of five playable characters, each bringing their own twist to the heist. The fun doesn’t stop after you complete the demo – there’s always a new way for you to approach the perfect crime!

Grab your best crew, mark your calendars, and be sure to check out the demo from February 20th - March 3rd. We can’t wait to welcome you back to the manic world of Monaco! It’s time to prove you and your crew have what it takes to be criminal masterminds.
