■ What is 'GooNECT√2'?
© Bandai Namco Studios Inc. Published by Phoenixx Inc. & AMBER GAMES
'Goonect', the 'fated community' cooperative action game, was born from the newcomer training at Bandai Namco Studios. The voices of everyone saying 'I want to play more!' have taken shape. 'GooNECT√2', with new features added, is finally being released.
'GooNECT√2' offers infinite ways to play with 'procedurally generated stages'! A 'solo play mode' has been added, allowing one person to control the characters. A color change function for the adorable 'Goo' characters has been implemented, and you can now dress them up with items found in the stages. Pull your partner, use them as a springboard to reach higher places... Cooperate to escape from the toy room full of gimmicks! What will become of their 'friendship level'...!?
