The game was released in Japan on October 1, 2015, in North America on September 1, 2016, in Europe on December 2, 2016, and in Australia on December 3, 2016.

Gameplay

Picross 3D: Round 2 features gameplay similar to that of its predecessor, Picross 3D, in which the rules of Picross are applied to three-dimensional puzzles. In each puzzle, players must analyze the numbers featured on rows and columns and either paint or break away specific blocks to reveal a 3D model of an object or character. This time around, each puzzle possesses two kinds of colored blocks that must be painted accordingly; blue blocks, which represent straight square blocks, and orange blocks, which transform into curved or cut-out blocks when filled in. This introduces dual numbers, indicating rows or columns containing both blue and orange blocks. Players are penalised for destroying blocks incorrectly or painting a block the wrong color. Players can use flags to highlight potential blocks in certain colors if they are unsure, and can use bombs to quickly clear rows and columns containing no blocks. Players can also unlock additional puzzles by scanning in compatible amiibo figures.

Besides an addition of over 370 puzzles, it also features colour variations for the remaining of the blocks.
