Monomi Park has officially pushed Slime Rancher 2 into the full-release spotlight as the game exits Early Access. Version 1.0, “A Hero in Time,” is now available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store.

There will be a discount at launch to celebrate. Those who want to go all-in can also look into the Ultimate Bundle on Steam, which packs both Slime Rancher games with soundtracks for each game and more.

The team has even more in store to mark the occasion, including a collab with Boba Guys with the signature “Rainbow Island” drink, available at the flagship locations in California and New York from September 26 to October 12. There’s also an Art of Slime Rancher exhibition opening at Gallery Nucleus in Alhambra, CA from November 8-23.
