PowerWash Simulator has managed to carve a unique place for itself with all kinds of gamers. Between the base jobs the game offers, as well as the plethora of free and paid DLC packs available for PowerWash Simulator, players still want to keep pressure washing with FuturLab’s surprisingly cozy hit. That’s exactly what PowerWash Simulator 2 aims to offer when it releases later this year: more grimy things to spray down in the same fashion players already know and love. As a sequel, it may aim to just deliver more of what players love, but there are still plenty of new features to get fans excited about the next installment. From a building players get to customize to improved co-op options, there’s a lot underneath PowerWash Simulator 2‘s simplistic scope to discover.
By delivering on more of what fans expect from PowerWash Simulator, that means making sure there’s plenty to clean along the way. FuturLab has already promised that there will be more jobs, be they as big as the original game’s playground or as small as washing the player’s own furniture. Fans are sure to enjoy spending time washing an array of new objects, but one part of the upcoming simulation game that will heighten the experience is the new soap system FuturLab has teased. While not much is known about the new soap mechanics in PowerWash Simulator 2 just yet, the idea alone is an appreciated upgrade from the first installment.
PowerWash Simulator 2 Invites Players to Properly Scrub Down its Objects
In the original PowerWash Simulator, soap left a lot to be desired. It functioned like many of the other nozzles in the game, just with a unique spray pattern and bubble noises attached to it. Soap would always need to be bought, and even then, it didn’t last long. While PowerWash Simulator aims for a more relaxing vibe than any kind of immersion, pressure washing still evokes an image of suds being washed away by water down the pavement for many people. Without a bit more realism behind the specific cleaners available in PowerWash Simulator, some players may prefer to go without the cleaners entirely, as every nozzle can take care of the grime without soap easily. PowerWash Simulator 2 aims to fix that by finally giving players suds to wash away.
The use of the words “soap system” by the developers is intriguing as it implies there might be more to it than just washing away bubbles. While many players are likely just fine with the idea of covering a fence in someone’s yard in suds to wash away to reveal something sparkling underneath, many other applications could help immerse players even more. Some cleaners require to be sprayed and then left there for a few minutes to take effect, which could not only be more immersive, but teach players some strategic patience. They could leave that area alone and clean something else while they wait for it to settle and make spraying the suds easier.
One of the things that made PowerWash Simulator unique was the way that it gave players complete freedom to pressure wash as much as they wanted, however they wanted. The new soap system in PowerWash Simulator 2 won’t likely change that aspect much. Players who want to clean without soap will likely still be able to rely on a few nozzles to get the job done, but those who want suds and bubbles will likely spend their well-earned PowerWash Simulator money on it to enjoy their time with the game as they please. In the end, there are more things to clean and more ways to do it, which will certainly excite players when PowerWash Simulator 2 launches later this year.
PowerWash Simulator 2 is in development.
