Warlocks 2: God Slayers is a humorous action RPG game with online and local co-op. Challenge the vile gods and dethrone them in this action-packed hack’n' slash experience with wizards and meteor showers. God Slayers is a brand new story. Take the role of one of the Warlocks and face the gods themselves, as slashing hordes of shadow monsters in the past have angered them, to say the least. The Order of Warlocks has been called to challenge and dethrone arrogant gods from the thrones - make them pay for their betrayal. Core features: Hilarious pixel art with hand-drawn animations. Dynamic hack 'n slash experience in solo, local and online co-op (up to 4 players). More than 40 types of challenging enemies that work together to take you down, using their unique skill sets. 5 different types of Warlocks to choose, each with their own abilities to unlock throughout the game. Special familiar slot for your character (with evolutions!). 8-10 hours of gameplay to complete the solo adventure with one Warlock. Giant, powerful bosses waiting to get slayed. Extensive maps with tons of randomly generated loot to be picked up. Colorful narration with plenty of jokes and humour. Fast-paced combat empowered by 5 character class system with respective strengths, progression structure which allows players obtain new abilities that are unlocked through the skill trees and a familiar system on top of that will give you the most satisfying hack & slash experience

Warlocks 2: God Slayers lets players work to become a powerful warlock as they help the Order and destroy gods. The combat can get repetitive, but isn't too challenging until you encounter the bosses. With several characters to choose from, you'll be able to fight in multiple different combat styles.

7 / 10.0

Warlocks 2: Godslayers is enjoyable for the most part, but the difficult and tedious combat can take the fun out of the game for some people. The game is definitely geared for multiplayer as the combat can be overwhelming during solo play. Beyond that there are a few minor performance hiccups though it doesn't normally affect any major gameplay. If you can get past that and the difficult-at-times combat, you'll find an enjoyable and humorous game with some interesting gameplay mechanics and even more interesting writing.

7 / 10

There's no denying Warlocks 2: God Slayers has really improved upon the original game that completely bypassed a Nintendo platform release. The larger levels, more refined character traits and continued support for co-op play does help it stand out among its Metroidvania-esque, pixel art-styled brethren. However, the lack of support for online play (something present on PC and other version of the game) takes the shine off this package, especially for a game that's substantially more fun to play with others.

4 / 10

Warlocks 2: God Slayers sets itself on an ambitious path which many players will quickly feel attracted to. The problem is, for all its quality animations and well-written dialogues, Warlocks II simply does not play well enough to provide a memorable, enjoyable experience. Adding to all its gameplay flaws a very inconvenient and unchangeable control system, the result is a game that simply serves nobody's tastes and will only disappoint who will expect something from it.
