Sequel to immensely popular mobile game adds new graphics and environments, more power-ups, and special powers for each character.
Temple Run 2 is on the way. According to a listing on iTunes New Zealand, husband-and-wife development team Imangi Studios will release a sequel to the popular downloadable game imminently.
No release date for North America or Europe was revealed, though as was the case with the iOS version of Bastion, gamers can expect Temple Run 2 in the West tomorrow.
The sequel will feature updated graphics, new environments and obstacles, as well as more power-ups and achievements. In addition, special powers for each character will be available, as will a bigger monkey.
The original Temple Run has been downloaded over 170 million times, including 75 million downloads on iOS in 2012 alone. For more on the story behind the game's breakout success, check out GameSpot's interview with creators Keith Shepherd and Natalia Luckyanova.

1 Like I still like "Where's My Water" & "Cut the Rope". Fun puzzle games that are simple and cheap.
Hopefully there won't be a glitch this time that allows for an unlimited score! I'll get it if it's free but I can't see it being cool enough to spend much $ on. Maybe I'd get it for $1 depends how good it looks
Never played it, didn't care. I'll stick with GTA Vice City, Max Payne, Amazing Spider-man and NOVA 3. Don't know if I'll be able to stand not having all the fun...
Top 5 Apps that are still enjoyable for me after 10 minutes of play: 1. Fun Run, 2. Temple Run, 3. Doors and Rooms, 4. Hill Climb, 5. Fruit Ninja....and these are free.
2 Like Temple run is one of the few mobile games i really like, its a great time waster for those very short periods when I cannot be bothered to use my vita or 3ds, will look forward to it
