Guacamelee! 2 Reviews
Guacamelee is back with second adventure - it's not very different but still great fun. And it's hard...and catchy.

Guacamelee! 2 is a worthy sequel
Guacamelee 2! is a required pick-up. The Metroidvania genre has enjoyed a number of certified classics over the past few years, and this one of them.
Guacamelee! 2 feels just as good as its predecessor overall. Some of the hardest sections can be even more frustrating than the hardest challenges found in the original, but this is somewhat counterbalanced by the fact that it does streamline a lot of things that were more complicated than they really needed to be. The adventure has the potential for replay value, especially with DLC, achievement and multiplayer for up to four players thrown into the mix. The Mexiverse certainly feels worthy of being saved, despite the sometimes infuriating challenge proposed by Guacamelee! 2, and fans of the Metroidvania genre in general, but fans of the original, in particular, should definitely check this one out.
Guacamelee! 2 is a bigger, more fun, action-packed and even better-looking sequel that improves on everything the prequel did
Guacamelee! 2 is more like a nicely reunion with the old characters whom we know, as the new ones aren't that interesting. So if you intend to play this series, you MUST play the first installment first.

When Guacamelee 2 does so many things right, from the wonderfully tight and responsible gameplay to the downright gorgeous look and feel of the Mexiverse, it's hard to not talk about it without gushing. But it's earned that right, delivering a top-tier experience across the board. It captures the essence of multiple genres and blends them brilliantly within a visually stunning world that's equally as fun to explore as it is to stare at.
Guacamelee! 2 like its predecessor is a must-buy game for every Metroidvania fan. The platforming part is well-made and the changing between living and dead world and also human and roster-form, make interesting challenges which are sometimes very hard. Combat mechanics are also well-implemented but most fighting arenas are mostly identical and feel the same in terms of level design. But after all, If you want a great colorful fun metroidvania game, Guacamelee! 2 is for you.

Guacamelee! 2 contains everything I loved from the first iteration and builds upon the foundation. DrinkBox Studios kept the elements that worked so well in the game, like platforming, combat, visuals, and great music.
Guacamalee 2 is a wonderful sequel who takes the core gameplay of the previous title to the next level by addressing every single issue and adding a lot more stuff to it, and even though it may not feel like a fresh experience as its predecessor did, it still has a lot to offer.

Thanks to the way in which the history of video games developed, Metroidvania as a genre continues to nourish the romanticism that surrounds the titles that gives it a name. In that sense, Guacamelee!2 is a worthy representative of the genre since it complies with the elements required to be approved by enthusiasts, old and new school players. As promised, DrinkBox Studios has taken the series to the next level and everything has been greatly improved. The merit of the Canadian studio is that the game is capable of expressing itself through its mechanics.

We take a trip into the Mexiverse to prevent a mystical guacamole from folding time in on itself. Yeah, things are gonna get weird.
Guacamelee! 2 is an example of a sequel done right. It is one of the most impressive co-op Metroidvania games on the PS4.
Guacamelee! 2 is a must have title.

Guacamelee! 2 is more of the same. That's not a bad thing necessarily, and with a funny new story, those who have enjoyed Juan's previous adventure will likely be left smiling. But if you're new to the franchise, I'd still recommend starting with the original game before deciding if the sequel is worth picking up.
Five year was a long time for this sequel, but Drinkbox Studios have totally delivered with this one. Guacamelee! 2 takes everything that was great in the first game, adds more on top of it and presents you this title that is without a doubt a must-play. Hands down the best metroidvania I've played since… Guacamelee!
Guacamelee! 2 continues Drinkbox Studios streak of outstanding high quality games.
