Steamworld Heist 2 is the highly popular sequel to the beloved original game and offers players a lot of new features and challenges to keep them on their robotic toes.

There are a lot of things to keep track of in Steamworld Heist 2 despite its simplistic formula and looks. First off, the game has plenty of difficulty settings, letting players make it as easy or as challenging as they want.

Fortunately, this beginner's tips and tricks guide will help players, particularly newcomers, understand what they need to be doing in the early stages. These are things that you should keep in mind while battling against enemies and other things.

Rush to Level 3

In any Job, level 3 is a crucial milestone, which makes it absolutely recommended to make sure that all your crewmates reach this particular level as soon as possible.

You should take advantage of their starting levels and raise their level before even moving them to a different class, according to TheGamer.

This particular level grants a character an additional Cog, which lets them assign more Skills after they choose to switch Jobs. This would make it much easier to keep all their hard-earned abilities while still learning new ones in a different role.

Complete Missions Before Resting

After a specific crewmate participates in a mission, they will be unavailable for further duty until they sleep at the local Bar. While you can dock them right away to get your crewmates back, it is better to exhaust everyone first before doing so.

Complete other missions that you can use other members of your party to acquire some experience and loot. After you unlock Bounties, you also get a chance for much better rewards at the end of the day for completing more missions in a single day.

Adjust the Difficulty

Due to how Steamworld Heist 2's difficulty settings play out, you can choose to adjust the level at any point if you are having trouble with any particular part of the game.

There are five main difficulty modes; Story, Moderate, Experienced, Veteran, and Elite, said GameRant.

Fortunately, there is also an option to customize your own difficulty settings, giving you the ability to make some parts harder and some parts easier. This is a lot more than what other games offer, so make sure to take advantage of it.

Other Tips

Another thing that you should always be doing when in a fight is taking advantage of cover to keep yourself from getting hit by enemy attacks. Your party members are relatively fragile and healing is a hassle.

When it comes to opening doors, there is actually a right way to do it and one example is using your frontliner to open a door. This is because after you open it, there are often new enemies on the other side that will immediately attack you, according to Epic Games.
