The first Citizen Sleeper, released in 2022, won multiple awards and was nominated for four BAFTAs including British Game and Game for Impact. It's a phenomenal tabletop-inspired game, exploring political themes with evocative writing and a beautiful electronic score.

The sequel, announced in June 2023, will stick to a similar template to the first as it follows a new Sleeper android protagonist out in the stars and uses the same dice-throwing mechanics.

Creator Gareth Damian Martin stated the central theme was "crisis", with the pandemic and invasion of Ukraine being influential.

Eurogamer's Katharine Castle went hands-on with Citizen Sleeper 2 earlier this year. "There may be a different set of machines powering this ambitious RPG, but deep down, it still has the same gooey, human heart we know and love," she wrote.
