If you think that there are only four playable characters in Spelunky 2, you are pretty much wrong. At the beginning of Spelunky 2, there are four players in your roster, Ana Spelunky, Margaret Tunnel, Colin Northward, and Roffy D.Sloth. However, there are other bonus characters available in the game as you progress. Follow this Spelunky 2: how to unlock characters guide to know where to find these bonus characters and how to unlock them.
Spelunky 2: How to Unlock Characters
You can get new characters in Spelunky 2 by unlocking them from coffins. Coffins can be found scattered throughout the caves. But there is no certainty as to where you can find them. That’s because the caves in Spelunky are randomly generated. Therefore, you need to look out for coffins throughout the game.
When you find a coffin, just open it and the bonus character within will be unlocked. If you have found the same coffin twice, the second coffin will give you an NPC character, which will help you throughout your journey through different means.
