Long story short, this is the sequel Psychonaut fans deserve.
Psychonauts 2 shines by delivering an absurd amount of creativity to the player. The story is filled with heart. The gameplay is smooth and fun. The character cast and the environments show incredible diversity throughout the entire experience. The next brain you’ll visit will always be more even more creative than the last, and the game does all that while also being absolutely gorgeous to look at. Psychonauts 2 is the best game Double Fine has ever created and the best release by Xbox first-party in many years.
Psychonauts 2 is a perfect 3D platformer offering a well balanced challenge that’s engaging and filled with a lengthy narrative that provides many laughs alongside heavier emotional beats.
Psychonauts 2 is everything a sequel should be — bigger, bolder, better. Although the wait was much longer than anticipated, the top-tier writing and gameplay improvements more than makes the wait for a sequel worthwhile.
