In an open world the player controls the character Beatrix LeBeau, a rancher who moved from planet Earth to a far away planet to live the life of a slime rancher, centered around ranch construction and the exploration of the environment in order to collect, raise, feed, and breed slimes, gelatinous living organisms of various sizes and characteristics. The game revolves around feeding slimes food so that they can produce "plorts", which can be sold in exchange for Newbucks, a currency required to purchase upgrades for the ranch and its equipment. There are different kinds of slimes in the world, including some introduced for Slime Rancher 2. Slimes react and change based on what they are fed. Slime Rancher 2 introduces a dynamic weather system (including rain, wind, thunderstorms, lightning, pollen, cyclone, and slimefall) that impacts the environment and the slimes that appear during specific weather events. In addition to slimes from the first game, players can raise new slime variants.
