The sequel to one of the most brutal, disgusting Metroidvanias ever is about to launch

6K View2023-08-24
If you played the original Blasphemous anytime since it came out in 2019, then you know it was a disturbingly bloody little game that proved that pixel-art graphics can still bring the gore and grossness. And if you played it, you'll also know that on top of being filled with messed up enemies and cutscenes, it was also an extremely good Metroidvania.
But whether you played the first game or not, you should take note of the impending release of Blasphemous 2. This sequel brings a similar Bloodborne or Dark Souls-style aesthetic but ups the ante with a much bigger world, more weapon types and abilities to unlock, and a story that's somehow even darker than the first.
In other words, it's great! If you want more details, you can check out the Quick Review from TapTap editor Kef:

Blasphemous 2 launches on Nintendo Switch, PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X and S tomorrow, August 24. It will cost $29.99 for the regular game or $39.99 for the deluxe edition, which includes a digital artbook and soundtrack. Good luck exploring the deep, dark corners of Cvstodia, Penitent Ones.

One of the best modern Metroidvanias gets an even better sequel - Blasphemous 2 Quick Review
SHOULD I PLAY BLASPHEMOUS 2? This is the easiest “YES” I’ve given in ages, unless you can't handle how nasty it is. Blasphemous 2 is a sequel to what was already one of the best and most memorable Metroidvanias of the modern era. But much more than just retreading the exact same territory, this sequel builds wisely on the strengths of the first game. It’s not just a long adventure and not just a return to the disturbing, gothic world of 2019’s
