Ghostrunner 2 is a near flawless sequel that retains all the outstanding aspects of its predecessor, while making significant improvements to the level design and gameplay. Even more satisfying are the two non-linear, sandbox-style levels that expand the world both inside and outside of Dharma City.

Ghostrunner 2 sticks to the fast-paced formula of "Live, die, repeat" while adding new mechanics, excellent levels and additions like the motorcycle. Some areas could use more polish, but as a whole, it's a futuristic rollercoaster from start to finish.

Ghostrunner 2 reintroduces the same formula as its predecessor, enhancing it with more open maps and new abilities for Jack, adding a touch of depth to the gameplay. While it lacks significant innovations, the gameplay formula still manages to work and entertain. However, its nature of extreme trial and error makes it a title not suited for everyone, as it can frustrate a good portion of players.

Ghostrunner 2‘s action is an acquired taste. It is extremely risky since players have to be both reckless and careful at the same time. The battles are cruel, yet retrying is painless. It may resemble most first-person action games you may have seen before, but it has more in common with the heedless gameplay in Katana Zero or Hotline Miami.

Ghostrunner II finds itself right on par with the first game. The action remains razor-sharp in the beginning, with tight movement and combat that feels rewarding when you master it. The tweaks to existing mechanics and the addition of new moves keep things from devolving into being just "more of the same" when compared to the first title. The more open areas of the desert wasteland feel too freeing, and the various inconsistent issues put a damper on the game when players are experienced. Overall, Ghostrunner II is satisfying for those who can get a thrill from quick bursts of well-executed playthroughs.

Ghostrunner 2 builds on the successful formula of the first game and improves it in many areas, but the open world part of the gameplay feels shallow and can't keep up with the lightning pace of the main story.

This is definitely not a game for everyone, it requires skill, attention and luck, and is designed to constantly repeat the same parts of the levels until you pass them. If you enjoy it, it will be interesting for you, if not, you better skip it.

Ghostrunner 2 is a good small game that offers a thrilling challenge that depends on your reflexes, as if you are a real cyborg ninja. But the lack of accessibility options for motion sickness, made me feel nauseous by the end of this experience.

If we weren't in a year full of good games, I would definitely say "the best game I've played recently" for Ghostrunner 2. It is one of the games that should definitely be mentioned years later when we talk about "what the hell was 2023?".

It’s a shame that Ghostrunner 2 isn’t a little more polished, as its imperfections can frustrate a little at times, but this is still a mighty achievement for One More Level. It remains a challenging experience that’s not for the fainthearted, but it packs in more variety and depth, expanding the world of Ghostrunner to levels we never anticipated or thought possible. If you’re a fan of the original Ghostrunner this is an absolute must-have, but we reckon this is a good place for newcomers to jump in too. Although some might want to wait until a patch or two has landed, just to smooth over some of its rough edges.

Even though Ghostrunner 2 only expands and improves the ideas of the original game, its parkour and combat systems remain highly enjoyable. It's a very fun and challenging experience that will excite fans of challenging games and adrenaline, even though it's not perfect.

Ghostrunner 2 shines with its novelties, however, it sticks to the old formula of success. It has decent moments of inspiration, balanced with a familiar repetitive system. Challenging at its core, it returns even more frenetic, fun, and daring.

Ghostrunner II offers a unique experience still unmatched in the gaming scene. The movement and combat system provides the smooth and exciting spark we came to know in the first installment, but don't forget a few appropriate tweaks. The combination of movement, katana, and special abilities make the fights addictive and fun. Unfortunately, the developers didn't make do with perfectly designed corridor levels. Despite the appealing graphics and great audiovisuals, they had to rush into a semi-open world that didn't suit the game.
