Tormented Souls 2 is a love letter to the survival horror genre that major companies abandoned years ago. Although many players won't be able to stand its deliberately old-school approach due to the clunky combat and complex puzzles, those who dare to give it a shot will find a game with excellent atmosphere that dares to challenge the player and be truly terrifying.

Tormented Souls 2 gets the visuals right, but loses its soul. The title is still a good classic survival horror experience, and despite significant technical advancements, the script falters, and the story degenerates into something more generic until its final minutes.

Tormented Souls 2 is a game that doesn't reinvent the formula, but rather improves on the existing roadmap. It's everything you'd expect from a survival horror experience; from the deep, layered exploration and creative puzzle-solving to the immersive atmosphere and natural horror, all working together like a machine in harmony.

Tormented Souls 2, like its predecessor, offers some solid survival horror action inspired by classics of the genre. Some might find dealing with or avoiding enemies a bit frustrating at times though, and a number of its puzzles could be considered a little too obtuse for comfort.

Tormented Souls 2 lives up to expectations, and the developers’ decision to once again embrace the old-school gameplay style of the original Resident Evil proved to be the right choice.

Tormented Souls 2 is a game that revives the spirit of classic horror games with modern touches. With its fixed camera angles and dark atmosphere, it creates a nostalgic vibe. While the pace slows down in some places, it remains consistent throughout the game. Tormented Souls 2 is neither perfect nor a disappointment; however, it’s a thoroughly enjoyable return to form for fans of old-school horror.

Unfortunately, my fear has become reality. Where the first game was one of the most pleasant surprises of 2021 for me, Tormented Souls 2 is perhaps the biggest disappointment of 2025. Although the game builds on the solid foundation of the first part, a poor gameplay balance and technical deblets kill the game. The PC version was clearly not yet ready to be launched. Chances are that I will give Tormented Souls 2 a second chance at a later date. Hopefully by then I won't have to be afraid of losing my progress.

It delivers everything fans loved from classic horror with modern improvements and new mechanics. Despite some story and difficulty issues, it offers a unique horror experience worth trying, perfect for both fans and newcomers to the genre.

Is Tormented Souls 2 the perfect game? Absolutely not. The beginning months of its release were a little rocky, technologically speaking, in terms of game-halting bugs and occasional awkward camera transitions, etc. Does that make it terrible? Not in the slightest. TS2 was a great horror experience that I got willingly sunk and immersed into for sometimes hours at a time.

Dual Effect has delivered a title that doesn’t try to please everyone, but instead confidently says, “This is for you - veterans who survived the PlayStation 1 era.” Tormented Souls 2 is not just a tribute to its inspirations; it’s proof that small developers can create experiences that stand shoulder to shoulder with the genre’s undisputed giants.

With some isolated flaws but a solid and coherent proposal, Tormented Souls 2 establishes itself as one of the most interesting experiences in recent horror. It’s a game that doesn’t seek to comfort the player, and precisely for that reason, it lingers in the memory long after the last dark corridor.

Tormented Souls 2 boldly embraces the old-school survival-horror formula: fixed cameras, scarce ammo, difficult enemies and a heavy focus on clever puzzles. Its spooky atmosphere, varied locations and solid horror mechanics make it a win for fans of the genre, even if the tank controls and frequent back-tracking won’t be for everybody.

Tormented Souls II brings a handful of meaningful additions that significantly improve the series’ gameplay, but its lack of innovation and reliance on nostalgia strip away the surprise and charm it might have had five years ago.
