Indonesia’s viral beat-’em-up returns with a bigger world, bolder story, and a mission to empower local game development

[Jakarta, Indonesia – September 15, 2025] – Gamecom Team, the Indonesian studio behind the viral hit Troublemaker, in partnership with indie publishing platform indie.io, today announced the worldwide launch of Troublemaker 2: Beyond Dream on Steam. The long-awaited sequel builds on the series’ outrageous action-comedy beat-em-up’ formula, expanding into a full open-world South Jayakarta where rhythm-band dreams, absurd encounters, and hard-hitting street brawls collide.

The first Troublemaker captured global attention for its authentic portrayal of Indonesian teenage life, a perspective rarely represented in video games. Players and critics alike praised its unapologetic integration of local culture, humor, and storytelling into an interactive format that felt both fresh and familiar. Troublemaker 2: Beyond Dream builds on that foundation, expanding the scope and sharpening the mechanics while holding onto the cultural identity that made the original stand out.



Building on the original game’s cult success and Very Positive reception on Steam, Troublemaker 2: Beyond Dream represents a leap forward for Gamecom Team. Where the first game centered on high school brawls and teenage drama, its follow-up gives players the run of the city, blending stylish combat with a rhythm-driven band storyline, absurd minigames, and social satire. Jordan, the street brawler, and Budi, the disciplined MMA fighter, return with unique fighting styles, a wider arsenal of weapons, and devastating finishers inspired by beat-’em-up classics. Together with the Parakacuk gang and the Beyond Dream band, players will chase fame, friendship, and survival in a city where every alley holds a story.

For Gamecom Team, today’s launch represents more than just a sequel. It reflects their larger mission: to expand Indonesia’s place on the global gaming stage and empower other local creators to grow alongside them. Shortly after announcing the game’s release date on Steam, the studio premiered a new trailer for Troublemaker 2: Beyond Dream during Indonesia Game Day on The Lazy Monday’s YouTube channel. Alongside the trailer, they revealed that the Troublemaker universe would expand through four mobile spin-offs, each developed by a different Indonesian studio.

“We’ve always believed that the strength of Indonesia’s game industry lies in the spirit of collaboration,” said Nanda, Game Director of the Troublemaker series. “With Troublemaker 2, our goal was to take everything that resonated in the first game and push it further—to create a world that feels bigger, more ambitious, but still unmistakably Indonesian at its heart."

That spirit of growth extends beyond games. A live-action film adaptation of Troublemaker is also in development with LYTO Pictures, highlighting how far the series has come since its beginnings. For Gamecom Team, every project—whether on PC, mobile, or screen—is a step toward showcasing the creativity of Indonesia’s developers to the world.

From absurd street fights to rhythm-fueled band battles, Troublemaker 2: Beyond Dream embraces the chaos of youth and the spirit of South Jayakarta with unshakable style. It’s a city where friendships are tested, rivalries flare, and every brawl, joke, and song adds to a story that could only be told in Indonesia—but one that resonates everywhere.

Now available on Steam for $24.99 USD with a 20% launch discount, Troublemaker 2: Beyond Dream invites players to brawl, perform, and survive the drama of South Jayakarta in true troublemaker style. Follow Gamecom Team on Instagram, TikTok or X(formerly Twitter) for the latest updates.
