Evaluation

Buggos 2 launched on September 25, 2025, and Intrepid Marmot has kept up a strong pace of updates ever since. The v1.1 Survival Mode update shipped on October 18, 2025, adding a new game mode. A substantial free content update arrived on April 11, 2026, bringing 3 new planets, 3 new bug unit types (Leviathan, Brain Bug, and Devourer), an expanded evolution tree, Steam Workshop support with a level editor, and French language support. Feature patches have continued through May 14, 2026, adding balance changes, new mutations, and gameplay improvements. Across 46 developer news posts since launch, the game has received consistent, ongoing attention. On August 22, 2026 — just one day before today — Intrepid Marmot announced Buggos: Death Squad, a new standalone game in the same universe releasing in January 2027. This is a separate title (a 4-player co-op horde survival shooter), not additional content for Buggos 2 itself. However, it demonstrates the developer is actively building on the Buggos franchise and has not wound down operations. No statement has been made indicating that Buggos 2 development is finished, and the continued feature patches through mid-2026 show the game was still receiving meaningful additions before this announcement.

About this game

Buggos 2 is a swarm-based auto-battler where YOU play as the Evil Hivemind controlling the murderous bugs.  Conquer the dirty Humans by sending wave after wave of Buggos - eventually all will crumble under your sheer biomass. Gain control of each planet and eradicate any Human presence along the way.

Buggos 2 is a low-micro RTS. This means controlling the swarm is easy.  Just set the Attack Pins for your Spawners and watch as up to 5000 bugs destroy the disgusting Humans. This allows you to focus on the high level strategies and the fun parts of the game. If you are an RTS veteran, you still have access to control groups and chaining command pins for those who wish to take things more into their own hands.

Unlock evolutions after every battle and turn your Buggos into the perfect killing machines. If you need something stronger for the next missions, reset your evolution tree and try something new. Stay unpredictable and try new strategies by re-evolving the Buggos as you see fit. 

Unlock powerful mutations to wreak havoc upon the battlefield after conquering an entire planet. Mutations are game changing evolutions that can redefine how a unit works or how you engage with the game.

Each mission is tailored to carnage and crafted with replayability in mind. Paint the map in Goo and living structures. Make use of terrain features and alternate routes to blindside the gross Humans in ways they least expect.

With half a dozen planets and over 30 missions between them, the possibilities to create a corpse playground are endless.

If you are an RTS veteran or Buggos enthusiast - you can crank up the difficulty! During your campaign progression you’ll be faced with tough choices on which ways the humans adapt to the growing threat. Buggos aren’t the only ones who evolve anymore.

Game Features:

  • Campaign with 45 missions over 9 planets.

  • Each map is hand-crafted to allow clever use of level geography and different unit combinations.

  • Over 150 evolutions and nearly 25 mutations to make your swarm stronger, providing countless play styles to experiment with.

  • Full level editor with Steam workshop support.

  • Hassle-free approach to RTS management. Let the bugs handle the details for you, all they need is a direction to march.

  • Difficulty is more than just a number. In higher difficulties each planetary conquest makes humans harder than the last, forcing you to choose how they punish your aggression.

The stars await their true masters. Conquer Buggos 2 today.

Please read the minimum System Requirements - Buggos 2 is a CPU hungry game and will not play well on older hardware.
