00:00 If you enjoy side-scrolling action combat with challenging platform puzzling and gorgeous
00:06 art style and presentation, get ready, Blasphemous 2 is all that and more.
00:11 The Team 17 sequel might feel somewhat too familiar to its predecessor at times, but
00:17 it's so fun that it matters very little.
00:20 According to DualShockers, Blasphemous 2 is visually stunning for sure and it remains
00:24 one of the purest games in the center of the Venn diagram between Dark Souls and Castlevania.
00:30 The once enigmatic thrust of the first game isn't quite there anymore, nor is the horrifying
00:35 wow factor of certain parts of the original, in particular the bosses.
00:40 But IGN reports, "Hacking and slashing your way through discomforting monsters, upgrading
00:45 your characters' weapons, health, and magic meters while collecting various passive buffs
00:50 and spells make for a fantastic climb to unparalleled power."
00:55 This game is not for the faint of heart.
00:57 It might be the grossest game you've ever played.
01:00 In Blasphemous 2 you're subject to a lot of loose, detached body parts, torn skin, bodily
01:06 fluids and all kinds of lewd ideas, but that's part of the magic.
01:11 Rated PEGI 16, Blasphemous 2 comes out August 24th on PS5, Nintendo Switch, Xbox Series
01:18 X and S and PC.
