Soul Hackers 2 is a JRPG developed by Atlus, who is responsible for other large titles like Persona and the Shin Megami Tensei series. It has similarities to both franchises but manages to shine on its own by having a unique art design, complex storyline, and multidimensional characters. Players must save the world as Ringo, a newly born AI equipped with conscious thought and emotions, from an unknown creature called «The Great One.» Ringo is thrust into a world of Demons and Demon Summoners with her twin Figue, and they find themselves stuck between two summoner societies in a doomed war.
The gameplay and mechanics will be familiar to fans of JRPGs, but it can be overwhelming for beginners as there are a lot of combat mechanics, world lore, and character boosts to learn about. Thankfully, Soul Hackers 2 is still relatively tame in the genre and is an excellent introductory game for players with a little guidance.
