Critic Reviews for Gravity Rush 2
Gravity Rush 2 is bigger and better than its predecessor, but frustrating stealth sections and a wonky camera keep it from taking the series to the next level.
Sony's superhero series has lost none of its thrills - or its wayward nature - in the shift to PS4.
After a couple of story hiccups, Gravity Rush 2 righted itself and pulled me in with the personality of its world and wide variety of activities. The new gravity powers and styles make combat exciting, and well-written side quests and character relationships grant better insight into Kat’s universe. After 40 hours I found it hard to put the controller down, and I can’t wait to jump back in to finish every sidequest I can find.
When Gravity Rush 2 sticks to its strengths, it soars; it’s a shame that its stale mission design and clumsy controls keep it from getting too high off the ground.
Wandering around Gravity Rush 2’s enormous cities is a lot of fun, but the mission design feels limiting and dated.
Gravity Rush 2 is a jam-packed sequel that fulfills its predecessor’s untapped potential.
“More of the same” could very well be the simpler way to sum up what players should expect coming into Gravity Rush 2.
