Critic Reviews for Gunvolt Chronicles: Luminous Avenger iX 2
A hallmark of excellence. There may be flaws, but they are negligible and won't cause massive damage.
Gunvolt Chronicles: Luminous Avenger iX 2 is far from a groundbreaking game, but it certainly is an enjoyable one. The tightly designed levels and snappy controls make for a thoroughly enjoyable action side-scrolling experience, though this comes with the major caveat that the whole experience is really only a few hours long and it's very much more of the same. At any rate, we'd give this one a strong recommendation to any fans of the Gunvolt series or run-and-gun games in general; there may not be much of it, but Gunvolt Chronicles: Luminous Avenger iX 2 absolutely nails what it sets out to do.
While there's nothing particularly meaty or mindblowing about the experience and it's very easy, Luminous Avenger iX 2 is another enjoyable entry in the series.
A great sequel to the Gunvolt 2019's game. Gunvolt Chronicles Luminous Avenger iX 2 is perfect for every Mega Man Zero's fan, and a amazing treat for the wait until Azure Strikes Gunvolt 3 is ready.

Gunvolt Chronicles: Luminous Avenger iX 2 improves upon its predecessor's exciting marriage of movement and combat, though its story somehow got more bland.
Gunvolt Chronicles: Luminous Avenger iX 2 does so much right. It’s gorgeous, it’s fun, and it sounds awesome. It has a lot to offer for fans of classic 2D action platformers with engagement to be found in both its story and gameplay. Not without its faults, Luminous Avenger iX 2 hides its true ending behind an overly punishing hard mode and hides fun mechanics behind a DLC paywall which leaves a sour taste in the mouth. Though with that said, the game still manages to be a funhouse of bullets and chainsaws.
The second part offers us a special level and reintroduces a number of elements that impressed us with the first part, this part introduced some changes that restricted some aspects of the game and made the experience less dynamic, a decision that not everyone will like.

If you've ever played a Gunvolt game of any kind, this is a fairly good one of those, even if you're likely to forget about it after putting it away. Not every game needs to be memorable to be a worthwhile experience, though. If you're looking for an action-heavy palette cleanser with some kicking visuals and solid gameplay, Gunvolt Chronicles: Luminous Avenger iX 2 would make a strong addition to your Switch library.
