Presumably it mostly works the same way.

It seems we’re getting a new playable character, some sort of flamboyant skeleton with a scythe.

Or maybe just a tiny treat for fans.

The Ironclad, Silent, and a mysterious skeletal warrior stand together in Slay the Spire 2’s announcement trailer.

I will say the trailer’s grim tone does not remotely match my sense of the first game.

I like that Slay The Spire is playful, weird, subversive, and a little silly.

But this is only a cinematic trailer and might not reflect the actual game.
