Rainbow Island

Rainbow Island is the island Beatrix LeBeau travels to in the upcoming game Slime Rancher 2, and is the central focus of the game.

## STORY:

Upon arriving at the brand-new Rainbow Island, you find yourself at the atrium. It seems to have fallen apart a little and is a bit overgrown. Going around the island there seems to be not much different than the ranch.

New slimes populate the islands that you will traverse. Soon, you can discover drones that resemble robotic beetles with an electronic slime face. Partially broken, they can only give you logs left by an unknown explorer.

Soon you receive a call from Viktor saying how he has received a coded message from an AI so advanced it appears alien. After decoding some messages left by the AI, Viktor says that the AI is on par with his own intelligence. Mochi also calls saying how there are quite a few drones around. She says that they are very similar to the drones that are known to her, but more advanced. She says that there is a probability of aliens being on Rainbow Island leaving these drones around. Ogden soon calls as well, asking if any new food is on the island. A few calls later and he reveals that he suspects that Rainbow Island is mostly artificial, again hinting at aliens.

Large ruins may be found around the islands proving that there was an ancient civilization at one point just like the ranch. A newer character that we have yet to meet is probably the "Alien" that everyone is talking about. He happens to leave notes within drones found around the islands talking about how he enjoys Rainbow Island but is sad to see it go.

## LOCATIONS:

**The Conservatory:** The main base of operations, which consists of plots which you can build corals, gardens, silos, incinerators, or ponds, and unlockable areas that help with slimes that have specific needs.

**The Rainbow Fields:** The initial area that you discover upon leaving the Ranch. It is a field that has basic resources and slimes, particularly pink and cotton slimes. Also houses teleporters that take you to different parts of the map. Most of the area consists of rocky ledges facing the sea. Ruins and caves can be found around the island.

**Ember Valley**: A fiery area that is accessible with an unlockable teleporter. Most of the island is in an ashy haze making everything have a red tint, due to the volcano. More dangerous slimes, such as boom, fire, and crystal slimes, may be found here along with more mineral deposits to find. Most of the island has a fall colored flora decorating it and large caverns that have lava pools may be found as well.

**Starlight Strand:** An island that is split between two different settings: Sunrise and Sunset. The sunrise part is blue and the sunset red. More animal like slimes, such as flutter slimes, can be found as well as more types of fruits and veggies. Ruins cover the place that have doors that connect parts of the island with each other. Specific plorts are required to open doors. The island is mostly flora with trees and grass all over the island, with underground tunnels leading through the island.

**Powderfall Bluffs:** A snowy island with strange auroral anomalies that rose from the depths of the Slime Sea, preserving the ecosystem of the Jellassic period from one billion years ago. It's predominantly covered in ice, with patches of red grass and pine-like trees. It's home to Jellassic period animals that were once thought to be extinct, like pure saber slimes and the thundercluck hen. It also has underground caves of cerulean rock, with glowing flowers.

## **TRIVIA:**

* Rainbow Island is still on the Far, Far Range, just a different island than The Ranch.
