Asterix & Obelix XXL 2: Mission: Las Vegum is an action-adventure game for Windows and PlayStation 2, the sequel to Asterix & Obelix XXL. It was released in June 2006 in Europe. The game stars the French comic book characters Asterix and Obelix, and features spoofs to many classic games, in the same fashion that the comics spoof historical characters and make many cultural references. One such example of this is the box art that has a passing resemblance to the one seen in Grand Theft Auto III.
A high-definition remaster was announced on July 6, 2018 by Anuman under their Microids brand label and developed by OSome Studio. It was released on November 29, 2018 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Windows (through Steam and GOG.com) and Nintendo Switch. While in the PAL regions of the game, it received a retail release, in the form of both a Limited Edition and a Collector's Edition. It was also announced on the same day that a third installment, Asterix & Obelix XXL 3: The Crystal Menhir was in development.
A physical version was released in the United States in November 2019 through Maximum Games, under the name Roman Rumble in Las Vegum.
