LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2 Reviews
It's another Lego Marvel game with a so-so story leading to an immensely engaging open-world experience. That's fine if you primarily play Lego games to collect all the things.
Lego Marvel Super Heroes 2 feels like the solid end of TT Games' exploration of the Marvel Universe. There's more characters here and this mashup of worlds provides a good deal of variety. There are problems: the X-Men and Fantastic Four don't return from the first game, the voice cast drains characters of some of their charm, and with this many characters, things can get a little confusing. The Lego game formula might need a rebuild in the future, but Lego Marvel 2 is good victory lap for the series.
At the end of the day, LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2 is a LEGO game
Lego Marvel Super Heroes 2 doesn't try to change the Lego formula: instead, it builds up on the benefits of its predecessor, delivering an entertaining experience thanks to a great variety of characters, locations and situations that will manage to keep players going until the very end of the game.

LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2 is simply huge, with an engaging story, an incredibly rich roster of characters - including some obscure (mini)figures - and an enormous world to play with. That is, unless you've had enough of the usual Traveller's Tales formula, basically unaltered from all the previous LEGO games.

It may be formulaic, but Lego Marvel Super Heroes 2 still retains the series' trademark charm and fun.
LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2 while doesn't deviate from the successful LEGO formula but adds enough new content and fun for multiple ages. Boss fights and the complex game design might not set the world on fire, but the diverse characters make it worth the admission price. Hopefully, we get more wholesome game like these from the geniuses at TT Games

Lego Marvel Superheroes 2 doesn't change the gameplay formula too much, but adds a massive open world to explore and tons of characters to unlock and use. The story and humor add to the fun.
LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2 offers a fun experience for Marvel fans young and old. It's only problem comes from the fact that the LEGO video games formula is starting to show its age. Warner and TT Games should really start thinking about changing things up a bit.

If the first chapter of the series showed serious plot-level uncertainties, the same can not be said for this new title. Controllable heroes are all done very well. Each hero has his or her own skill that will be crucial to the continuation of the story or to the resolution of the challenges within the various levels of play.

Amusing characters, sharp writing, and a diverse setting make for an enjoyable experience, albeit one with technical issues and shallow, unchallenging combat.
The latest installment of the Lego Marvel series doesn't deviate too far from the franchise's formula, which means it probably won't draw new gamers into the fold. However, it checks all the right boxes and hits most of the necessary marks, giving fans exactly what they crave.
If you enjoyed the first Lego Marvel Super Heroes, there's no doubt you'll love this one too. If you're looking for a sandbox where you can play with just about any of your favorite Marvel characters you'd like, this is your stop. If you're looking for a challenge, look elsewhere.
Despite the often baffling and obstructing in-story puzzles, there is a ton of fun to be had here. By the end of the story campaign, my original frustrations were for the most part forgotten and even forgiven. Destroying items in my path like furniture, snowmen, and pretty much everything that wasn’t a building was amazingly entertaining.
