Nights of Azure 2: Bride of the New Moon Reviews
Nights of Azure 2: Bride of the New Moon is a lot of fun despite the time limits – I had a blast playing it. The Platinum trophy is going to be tricky and very grindy, but that's usually the case for most action RPG releases on PS4. The graphics and animations in the game are absolutely brilliant, bringing the world and its characters to life – be sure to check this one out!
Nights of Azure was a surprise gem of 2016, giving Nights of Azure 2: Bride of the New Moon high expectations to live up to.
Nights of Azure 2: Bride of the New Moon is another Koei Tecmo game that looks like so many others, but plays with a special mix of ease and uniqueness that makes it compelling and addictive. There are many fun elements for exploration and battles, not the least of which is a time limit system that keeps you moving and searching for better ways to complete tasks. Despite some monotony as you progress, there is a ton to enjoy in this fun and simple game.
Though Nights of Azure 2 feels more like a sidegrade than a definitive step-up at times, some of its new and revised features still allow it to feel like a genuinely new experience that fans of the genre are sure to enjoy.
Nights of Azure 2 doesn't stray too far away from its predecessor
A sequel to the neo-gothic jRPG released year and a half ago, but with a new heroine. It fixes almost every flaw of the predecessor so we all can enjoy this great, dark title from Atelier creators.

A much larger roster of characters build on the gorgeous lore and setting established in the first, and solidify Nights of Azure as one of the most distinctive and original JRPG franchises going around. Keep building on this, Gust. It's going well.
Personally, I wasn't a massive fan of the original Nights of Azure, but I couldn't put this game down once I started playing it. The game feels like you are always progressing due to its time limits, whereas a JRPG would usually be a lot slower in its pacing. The combat is solid and you have at least three playthroughs of the game to complete if you wish to try and achieve the platinum.
The game is still very compelling and does a great job of creating an overall package. Check this game out as it's worth your attention.
