Mega Crit has launched a limited-run collection of Slay the Spire 2 plushies via Makeship as the sequel continues to shatter concurrent player records on Steam.
Developer Mega Crit has teamed up with Makeship to release a new wave of official plushies featuring iconic characters from Slay the Spire 2, giving players a tangible way to celebrate the deck building sequel. The limited run features the Ironclad, Silent, and Defect, available for order through April 3, 2026. This physical drop arrives while the community is deep in a buying frenzy, fueled by the game's massive momentum across PC and console platforms.
Slay the Spire 2 has taken over Steam charts since launch, regularly pulling in peak concurrent player counts stretching as high as 570,000 and briefly landing among the platform's top three most played titles. Mega Crit even poked fun at industry competitors over the weekend as the indie roguelike outpaced major live service shooters in concurrent players. The addition of long awaited multiplayer features, alongside fresh classes like the Necrobinder and Regent, has turned the sequel into a massive cultural touchstone for the community.
Beyond the raw numbers, the sequel succeeds by expanding on the strategic depth that made the original a genre defining hit. Players are diving into new events, experimenting with distinct card synergies, and navigating the expanded tactical options that make every run feel unpredictable. As reported by Eurogamer, these physical collectibles are just the cherry on top for a player base that is currently eating up everything Mega Crit is putting out.
