Blasphemous 2 Looks Like a Truly Sick Sequel in Raw Gameplay Footage | Push Square

pushsquare.com:

Due to release in just over a week on PS5, Blasphemous 2 appears to be a pretty straightforward sequel to the already fantastic Blasphemous — and we're perfectly okay with that. The 2D action adventure just got 16 minutes of raw gameplay footage (thanks IGN), and it looks damn good.

We've always loved the first game's art direction, and that clear attention to detail lives on in this follow-up. Based on what we know, Blasphemous 2 will be building on its predecessor with additional gameplay depth — including being able to choose between different weapon types — and it'll apparently be a bigger game in terms of scope. The bottom line here is that we'd be incredibly surprised if this anticipated sequel missed the mark.

Robert's been a dedicated PlayStation fan since the days of Tekken 2, and he still loves a good dust up. When he's not practising combos, he's usually getting lost in the latest 100-hour RPG, or, y'know, replaying The Witcher 3.

Never heard of it but consider me intrigued!

I loved the first game, and this one looks absolutely fantastic. I don’t even care about reviews — this is a day one purchase for me.

Blasphemous is legitimately tied for my favorite game of the PS4 generation alongside Bloodborne.

Take that however you will

Yes please. The first is amazing, the specifically Spanish Catholic iconography is inspired as a Metroidvania, the very nature of penance ties into gameplay.
