How it feels

A deeply immersive cinematic journey through a brutal and mythic world, experienced through the fractured perspective of a warrior battling inner and outer darkness.

What players say

Players praise the visuals and audio as top-tier, but many feel the gameplay is too shallow, less puzzle and combat depth than the first game, and the 6-8 hour run feels short for the price. Reviews split on whether the story lands as strongly as the original, with some calling the voices superficial now.
