PowerWash Simulator 2: FAQs

Modified on Tue, 16 Sep at 12:42 PM

PowerWash Simulator 2 is still in active development, so some of the details below may change before launch. We’ll share more specifics as development progresses.

We’ll be updating this guide as we share more about PowerWash Simulator 2.

 

Firstly, who are FuturLab?

We are the developers of PowerWash Simulator and now a developer and a publisher of PowerWash Simulator 2. Our mission is to make incredibly satisfying games that are joyful and relaxing.


Which Platforms will PWS2 be available for?

Steam, Epic Games, Windows Store, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5|Pro & Nintendo Switch 2!

We don’t have any plans to bring PowerWash Simulator 2 to PS4, Xbox One or Nintendo Switch 1.


How much content will be in PWS2?

It will have a fully-fledged Career with 38 jobs, all replayable in freeplay once completed.

More content will be coming to PowerWash Simulator 2 post launch, including both free and paid content.


What about post-launch content?

PowerWash Simulator 2 will be receiving both free and paid updates post launch, as well as planned Community Events. 

We’ll have more to share on the Community Events as we get closer to them.


Will there be more challenge levels? 

No, PowerWash Simulator 2 won’t include challenge levels, as a team we felt this wasn’t in line with the relaxing nature of PowerWash Simulator and made the decision not to include them this time around.


Will PWS2 have a story? 

The story is set a couple of years after the events of the first, and more oddness is taking place in Muckingham! It answers a few questions left unanswered last time, while raising many others. You will also be going further afield, visiting and cleaning many other neighbouring towns in Caldera County. 

 

Like in PWS, the story unfolds through environmental storytelling and text messages from friends and clients. Although the story of PowerWash Simulator will continue, you won’t need to play PowerWash Simulator to enjoy our sequel.


Will PWS2 have multiplayer? 

Yes! PWS2 will support 4 player online Co-op with shared online progression, or 2 player local split screen. 


Does PWS2 have improved visuals? 

PWS2 will be a visual step up from PWS. We’ll have more to share on this soon, so watch this space for more hi-res dirt and more watery water! 


What is the Home Base? 

In PWS it was hinted that the player character was working from their small garage, but this time around they’ve taken a step up in the world and pumped all their profits into purchasing a spacious Home Base. 

 

You will start in and return to the Home Base between jobs. You can also customize this by purchasing furniture, then cleaning it and placing within the big open plan downstairs area however you like. Keep track of progress made during the career mode and inspect memorabilia collected along the way. You can also invite your friends to get coordinated into a party before setting off to wash some jobs together. 


How much customisation will there be? 

As well as your home base, you’ll be able to change the look of your washer, and even your van! 

 

At launch you’ll be able to unlock new looks for your Washer, van and washing equipment. These will be Outfit cosmetics – Split into Masks, Overalls, Gloves & Boots, Van Cosmetics, Washer Cosmetics. 

We plan to expand more on these post launch.


What is soap 2.0? 

Soap has been reworked for PWS2! Enhanced soap is now a bubbling foam that clings to stubborn stains and annihilates dirt with a swish of even the weakest and widest nozzle. 


What new equipment is coming? 

We have a wide range of new equipment coming. This includes:

  • New models of washers
  • Abseiling rigs
  • Scissor Lifts
  • Improved Scaffolding
  • Step Ladders
  • Adaptable nozzle


Will PWS2 have achievements? 

Yes, there will be 40 achievements on launch!

What other improvements will PWS2 bring? 

PWS2 is an evolution from the first game, based on community feedback and what we have learned from PWS to level up the satisfaction. The soothing act of washing away muck and grime to reveal a sparkling surface below will always be our focus.

We’ll have more to share on the new ways to wash, navigate and experience PWS2 coming soon. 


Also, CATS! 


Will there be a VR version? 

There are no plans for this right now.
