On their web site Monday the brains behind Penny Arcade and Penny Arcade Adventures let loose with a few details about the as-of-yet unnamed Episode 2 in the series about their fictional counterparts.

Penny Arcade's Mike "Gabe" Krahulik first revealed that characters from the first game, On the Rain Slick Precipice of Darkness, will be transferable to Episode 2. To encourage players to do this, and not simply start fresh with Episode 2, going this route will reward you with certain bonuses.

"Basically, we've tried to put in more of the stuff you told us you liked and fix the stuff you didn't," Krahulik said. He also revealed new enemies would be tormenting protagonists Gabe and Tycho.

"The vicious Hat Spider is a deadly new foe. As ferocious as he is fashionable. Just because you're an eight-legged nightmare doesn't mean you can't accessorize," he said.

Episode 2 will be on display at the Penny Arcade Expo in Seattle from August 29-21, but no release date was given. That said, Krahulik said work has already begun on Episode 3.
