Blasphemous 2 Review (Best Metroidvania of 2023?)
Thick atmosphere, crisp combat, haunting score and grotesque enemies. Everything that made Blasphemous a cult hit remains, along with some very smart new additions and refinements.
Unfortunately, a lot of the issues from the first still remain that hold Blasphemous 2 back from being a leap forward, instead of just the evolution of the series that it is, but as the saying goes “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it".
If you loved Blasphemous, then you will adore the sequel. If you have never played the original, Blasphemous 2 is an easier recommendation than the first, despite a few issues that still linger. The changes and refinements, mainly the three weapon system go a long way in keeping the game feeling fresh in both the combat and the exploration, which are core pillars of a good Metroidvania. Add this to the already solid foundation from the first, and Blapshemous 2 is a must play for any fan of the genre.
