The sequel to Marble Madness successor / tower defense hybrid Rock of Ages is due 28th August on PS4, Xbox One and PC.Dubbed Rock of Ages 2: Bigger & Boulder, this sequel tasks players with destroying various fortresses throughout the ages, with each era represented by a different famous artist's aesthetic. As you can see in its new trailer, there's a fair bit of Monty Python absurdity as one cathartically guides a wrecking ball through a panicked selection of sentient art.
Like the first game, Rock of Ages 2 is split into two phases. In the first phase, players control a boulder descending along a sloped obstacle course in order to smash into their opponent's fortress with maximum force. Once this is done, you'll have time to set up defenses as your opponent (be it human or AI) is trying to do the same in real-time.

In essence, it ends up being something of a racing game mixed with an RTS.
