Critic Reviews for Patapon 2 Remastered
For the sole purpose of preserving this PlayStation classic, this remaster succeeds.
A fun and funky sequel, Patapon 2's bolstered roster of cheerful eyeball folk make for another welcome trip soundtracked to the beat of Pata Pata Pata Pon. It's a shame then that the remaster feels incomplete, offering an experience that's fundamentally less comprehensive than the PSP original.
Patapon 2: Remastered brings back a PSP classic that improves throughout the first part and does it with a new face lift but without any playable addition in your proposal. Fun, challenging and full of secrets, it is a real experience to make you an ally of these nice beings.

Patapon 2 was real good in its orignal form, so in 4K it looks even better. The same sticky sounds, su divertida jugabilidad, sus numerosos secretos y mecánicas con profundidad... Sigue siendo un gran juego a reivindicar, si bien es cierto que el remaster descuida algunos aspectos, como escenas que no han sido remasterizadas.

Patapon 2 Remastered brings back the unique and joyful mesh of Rhythm Games and God Games that made the beloved series stand out back in the PSP days, but the very basic treatment of this remaster and the removal of online functionalities prevent it from being an outstanding revival.

Despite having the rose-tinted glasses violently ripped away, Patapon 2 Remastered is an easy recommendation to existing fans of the series.
Patapon 2 Remastered brings its unique style to the PS4, with plenty of variety, and some wonderful music to boot. It's just a shame that the input lag is a problem.
If you haven't played the Patapon series prior to these remastered versions hitting the PS4, I strongly urge you to do so. They are challenging yet fun, and the music gets stuck in your brain like the best earworm you could ask for.
