Machinarium 2 seems revealed: Amanita Design posts official trailer
Amanita Design has published a trailer titled ‘Machinarium 2 | Announcement Trailer’, seemingly teasing an official sequel to Machinarium.
- Multiple sources link the video to an official sequel to Machinarium, the puzzle adventure game from 2009.
- No final details have been confirmed yet about the final title, release date, gameplay, or full platform list.
What happened
Amanita Design has published a video on its own YouTube channel titled “Machinarium 2 | Announcement Trailer”. That suggests the Czech studio has announced a new project in the Machinarium series. The video is posted under the developer’s own name, which directly confirms the connection to Amanita Design, but the title alone does not yet reveal the full scope of the trailer.
According to the supplied reporting, the video is a sequel to Machinarium, the hand-drawn puzzle adventure game that launched in 2009. That coverage frames the reveal as arriving 17 years after the original, underlining the timing of the new announcement. Some references also mention an official post on BlueSky, but the full text of that post was not included in the source material.
Based on the available sources, it is still unclear whether Machinarium 2 is the final commercial title or just a working name for the trailer. The provided information also does not include concrete details about a release window, gameplay, or a full list of platforms. The safest conclusion is that Amanita Design has released material that clearly points to a new Machinarium project, without all product details being confirmed yet.

Background
Machinarium is a hand-drawn puzzle adventure game from Amanita Design, the independent Czech studio known for its visually distinctive adventure titles. The game released in 2009 and became one of the developer’s best-known releases. As a result, the series is one of the studio’s most recognizable brands.
The current sources suggest that Amanita Design is returning to that series, but the available information is limited to the presence of an announcement trailer and references to a sequel. The title “Machinarium 2 | Announcement Trailer” is the strongest concrete signal in the source material, but without additional official text it remains unclear whether that name is final. It is also not confirmed whether the trailer announces a full new game or only an initial public teaser for a project that will be expanded later.
The reporting also mentions a 17-year gap between the original and the new announcement. That makes the reveal notable in the context of the series, but the evidence in the supplied sources remains narrow: the YouTube listing only confirms that a video with this title exists, while the BlueSky reference is not backed up by the full post text in the current set.
