    Gravity Rush 2 is a fun game with an interesting story, but that’s about it. Gravity shifting and flying around are very entertaining, and when the combat isn’t being a huge pain in the rear taking out enemies is very fun and satisfying. The story is definitely much more compelling than I initially thought it would be, and it was enough to keep me too invested in the game to quit.

Now they design 4 new stylish islands to form Jirga Para and at the same time bring back your an improved Hekseville which make the gameplay has some fresh experience and later a sense of nostalgia. I have to say even you finish the story mode then you still got side quests to play with and each of the side quests is pretty unique. Once you have done with the side quests then you can move on to the challenge missions which are also kind of fun. If all of above you have done, why not take some fresh air and just wander for some gems and try to boost your character stats then fight those legendary navi? This game just never ends so fast and worth people exploring more. The new Talisman system kind of turn out to be a cancer for those people who want to collect stuff since there are always be various Talisman and you want the best one.

    For those people who want to have a better experience, I suggest you go to play Gravity Rush 1 first on Vita or remaster vision on PS4. It helps you understand the world setting better. But if you don't want to waste your bucks then just buy the Gravity Rush 2 and I guess the city Hekseville is not that deep feeling for you this time whatever. Still, a good game doesn't need anything to support. Just like Dark Soul 3 is a great game even without Dark Soul 1 but you won't cry if you see that Lord of Cinder turning into Gwyn.

    As for the control. You will get used to it. (infinite R1 pressed to adjust direction)

    For those people who motion sick. -99/10.

    For newcomers (not beginner lah, haha it's not dark souls). 9/10.

    For those who have played the previous one. Just buy it. Go now! 999/10.

    Gravity Rush 2 is a great sequel to the acclaimed original PS Vita/PS4 game.

    Gravity Rush games combine comic book manga-style storytelling (full cut-scenes are few and far in between), cell-shaded graphics, and open world mechanics with Kat's ability to shift gravity in any axis you want to.

    First comes the positive part. The game's main characters are likeable, especially the protagonist duo of Kat and Raven who behave like two young girls but with super powers. Combat is simple and intuitive, but it can get repetitive. Along the way you empower your abilities and are granted two different play styles as the story unfolds. Other than the normal style, Lunar style makes you lighter and Jupiter style makes you heavier, each affecting you in differing ways. And let's not forget the physics on display when you unleash your powers on the enemies and debris go flying all over, they are on a whole new level than the 1st game.

    The cel-shaded graphics are beautiful and the manga-style storytelling is unique and charming. The open world is yours to explore and take on story missions, side quests and challenges. The game's story is presented in a 4 chapter (27 episodes) structure with one fake ending in the 3rd chapter and the true ending if you beat the 4th chapter. Kat's true identity and tragic past are revealed in the final chapter, and after a slow start it's non-stop action leading to a great finale. And if all that wasn't enough, the game's got a free prequel story expansion centering on Raven, called Another Story: The Ark of Time – Raven's Choice, lasting 6 episodes (3 hours of gameplay, more or less). The game's even got a nice instrumental-based soundtrack that perfectly fits the mood.

    Now comes the negative part. Some of the stealth missions (both main and side ones) are awfully designed and unforgiving due to not having coherent and clear stealth rules. Furthermore, like the 1st game, near the story's end there is a series of 3D gravity shifting puzzle levels which I found really annoying and offputting. Last but not least, the aerial combat and the camera during combat can be troublesome. When performing aerial kicks there is a chance you 'll miss your kicks (especially in standard style, so go for the lunar one), and you have to manually align the camera quite often when enemies are attacking you from all directions. A future Gravity Rush game will require a reworked camera and combat system.

    In the end Gravity Rush 2 is a beautiful and charming game from Sony's acclaimed Studio Japan. I 'd like to see a sequel in the future, the game's director says he 'd like to do it, but that's all we got for now. It's a nice curio that will please fans of japanese games. I wholeheartedly recommend this game to every PS4 gamer.

    I just played the first one on vita so I can't really compare them, however this one seems to have been graphically and technically improved. It is fascinating the use of gravity, you never get bored in that sense. It also has this comic way to tell the story which is great.
    As a huge disadvantage, the childish missions.

    I considered writing more but it seems no matter how well you explain your viewpoint on this game, criticism is considered "unhelpful" so I'll just go with my own personal viewpoint boiled down to its core:

    I very rarely found myself thinking "this is fun."

The combat is a bit repetitive at times as well.

    I gave the original game an 8/10 so this is a 9, just because they've improved literally everything. I strongly recommend to play Gravity Rush remastered before playing GR2. It's cheap nowadays, it's great and you won't be that confused.
    Let's talk about positives:
    + Wonderful open world - the world is approx. 2,5 times bigger that the original game, just because it includes the original
    I gave the original game an 8/10 so this is a 9, just because they've improved literally everything. I strongly recommend to play Gravity Rush remastered before playing GR2. It's cheap nowadays, it's great and you won't be that confused.
    Let's talk about positives:
    + Wonderful open world - the world is approx. 2,5 times bigger that the original game, just because it includes the original reworked Hekseville and a new world that is approx. 1,5x bigger than Hekseville. The environments are very well thought out so that you can have a lot of fun. Great variety and attention to detail. Graphics aside, the art work is fantastic.
    + Kat & characters in general - Kat is such a likable character. In some games you don't feel any connection to the hero, but in this game it's easy to relate and easy to fall in love with Kat. Big advantage over the first game is that this time there's also a great emphasis on side characters and you care more about them
    + Story - the story is quite complex, with a bunch of surprises and changes in tone. Sometimes silly, sometimes funny, sometimes it tackles some really harsh topics. In one moment you face the hard reality of capitalism and in another you fight fantastic beasts or fly around in dreamy environments. A big plus is that everything comes together in the end and comes to a proper closure...although i wish to see a sequels :)
    + Gameplay - gameplay is basically the same as in the first game but on steroids...on some really good steroids. You now have 3 different gravity styles - normal, light and heavy plus a special one which i won't spoil. It takes time to master those, but once you get a feel on when to use which style, it's really satisfying to fight enemies. Additionally to the standard upgrade system you can find also talismans that allow you to boost your powers. There's a also a light crafting system where you can combine talismans to improve their traits. Bottom line: gameplay is fun AF.
    + Soundtrack - great music fitted well to the mood and environments in the game
    + Physics - game uses hawok and if you use stasis or shift gravity, thinks are flying around like crazy, stuff is breaked, it just looks very cool
    Now for the neutral/negative stuff:
    - Camera - camera is sometimes confused. It's better than in the first game, but remember you are shifting gravity and falling, not flying. So it's pretty much random and you can end up in awkward angles. Not a very common problem, but it happens from time to time
    - Some missions - stealth mission are not the greatest. It's a nice change of pace, but sometimes annoying. It's like someone give you a Lamborghini and forces you to go 30Mph. But i get the point of the developers..change of pace.
    - Side missions - some side missions are silly and you get silly rewards. It would be nice if the game told me upfront what the reward is. Again..i know what the developers were thinking, Kat is not doing it for the reward. She's just a good girl.
    So overall a really awesome game. I believe it's not for everyone. Japanese games are very specific. If you're not sure, just get the first game for 10$. If you like it, you will like this one as well.

While Rodea the Sky Soldier is a bit better as a game given its score arcade style rpg throwback to the Nights Into Dreams series of games from classic developer and console maker Sega, the last of which was on the Wii....

    Hopefully more Japanese developers invest in games like this over the tired turn based jrpg format, which unfortauntely has been sholved heavily onto the ps3, ps4. More of this, less of that...

    This game, along with Teraway and Talos Principle are the 3 worthwhile exclusives on the system. Must own for a playstation 4 library.

    The graphics look so much more vibrant and beautiful, and really take full advantage of the PS4 hardware. There are occasional frame drops, and the camera can sometimes be a little wonky, but it never felt like a hindrance. This is a great game however, and reminds me a little bit of older platforming/exploration games from when I was younger.

    Overall I highly recommend this game.

    Costumes are super cute and fun to change every now and then, but they at nothing to story or gameplay once the mission related to it is finished. Also, most side missions are annoyingly boring and take way too long to complete.

    Not having a full voice over on Vita was understandable, but now on the PS4? It's the same excuse from before: "Oh, they speak their own language". Yeah, I don't buy that anymore, especially because they mostly don't speak, just hum all the time.

    It has an ok story and these are probably the most charismatic characters Sony has ever created. In fact, this is probably the most Nintendo game Sony has ever made. Too bad it feels half baked, or, forgive for saying, rushed.

The story begins very clear and slowly gets muffled throughout the three acts and 21 chapters of the main story, which is a shame, because the game truly drags by the time the credits roll. I put in nearly twenty hours into Gravity Rush 2, and those early hours were truly special. It's a shame that the developers couldn't hold the momentum till the end. There are also many side quest to accomplish and challenges throughout the surprisingly vast open world in the game. This definitely isn't a bad purchase if you're looking for a game that has a lot to offer, Gravity Rush 2 certainly does. Expand

    El juego en si mejora bastante al anterior, pero el juego no esta exento de problemas, muchas misiones se alargan demasiado muchas veces a propósito donde nos ponen a muchos puntos que al final son mas perdida de tiempo que otra cosa, ya que no aportan nada realmente, también esta el hecho que la transición entre ciertos capítulos logran desubicarlo a uno temporalmente de lo que esta pasando, pero por dicha es algo pasajero y muy pronto se retomarÔ el hilo de la historia. El juego cuenta con mas misiones secundarias que el anterior, claro no todas difieren entre si y se pueden volver repetitivas, muy al estilo de las misiones de mundos abiertos, pero estÔn allí y junto con todo lo que hay hacer en el juego le da mas puntos ya que no es un titulo que se acabarÔ rÔpidamente si queremos hacer todo, mi consejo es que alternen entre tareas, hagan misiones secundarias, búsquedas de tesoro, busquen cristales, o luchen contra nevis en los sitios mineros, ya que si solo centran en completar el juego les va resultar bastante pesado, mas que todo por estas misiones se diseñan para tener una duración larga de forma artificial.

    I love this game. But I also hate it a little bit.

    The world is gorgeous and the game art amazed me. I really liked to fly through and admire it, always anxious to discover a new section of the map and see more things.

    The characters looked pretty likable for me, but be aware: this game is apt for everybody, so its dialogues may be not very complex or mature (I'm 33, to give you a reference).
    Kat, the main character, is one of the best things of this game. She is innocent, pure and kind-hearted. I couldn't help liking her.
    The lore and story are surprisingly deep, and they fit well with the characters.

    But let me talk about two more things: first, the game design.

    Gravity Rush 2 is based in missions, but I think I didn't fully like the gameplay in any of them. They rely too much in not-too-smart trial and error mechanics. I felt frustrated. I smashed my controller with anger after failing again and again without knowing why.

    The second thing is the control. The input lag was horrible for me. Gravity Rush Remastered response is butter smooth, if you compare.
    I strongly think that a little more precision would help the experience.

    To summarize, I hated the game design but I loved the game. Worth buying it.

    Game art: 10 - awesome and beautiful

This is only a very minor problem as it takes seconds to fix but it occurs so much that it becomes annoying. This is not a issue which can be easily fixed and was in the first game. I enjoyed every other element of the game, the setting was amazing, the story was engaging, the gameplay was addicting and the graphics were charming. I would give this a 9.5. Expand

    This game is absolutely gorgeous. The game picks up right where the first one ends off without missing a beat, the tutorial is only about 30 minutes long and the cast and crew are all likeable characters. while the game is a little short (15 ish hours) the soundtrack and the endless ways to get around really make you feel a part of the game, and the first person mode is always fun. playThis game is absolutely gorgeous.

    Excellent game definitely an improvement from the first game while keeping the core fun intact; if you have a PlayStation 4 this is a must buy, in a market overrun with first person shooters this is certainly a very welcome breath of fresh air.

    Gravity Rush 2 improves on the Original by So Much. it adds loads of new stuff while bring in the old stuff as well. So far GR2 is much better as the limitations of the Vita isn't present here. The personal camera is great, the Costumes that you get at the start are the same ones from the DLC in the First one, and the treasure hunts are fun and sometimes hard depending how hard the personGravity Rush 2 improves on the Original by So Much. it adds loads of new stuff while bring in the old stuff as well. So far GR2 is much better as the limitations of the Vita isn't present here. The personal camera is great, the Costumes that you get at the start are the same ones from the DLC in the First one, and the treasure hunts are fun and sometimes hard depending how hard the person who took the picture wanted it to be as you randomly get pictures for treasure that you need to find based of that picture. I finished chapter 1 and once you hit Chapter 2 its a lot better. Trust me...

    I loved the art style of the first and glad back and improved to utilize the power of the PS4. The Cut-scenes get confusing like always but its still good and great to look at with the Motion sensor features. some other new features like the First person Camera (was in the original but only worked when stationary, now it isn't and you run around in First person, makes closer combat a bit easy as the camera can be a bit iffy at times.

    the Challenges return and are just as good and improved with the improved mechanics for a few of the abilities Kat has. the new camera that you get lets you not only change costumes but add props that you can use in the world, and is used in multiple missions. the world is bigger than the original with the rift like planes bigger than before with the main world having 4 parts like before but each one bigger than the first because of it being tiered. the new powers "lunar' and "Jupiter" extend the combat with more ways to play to suit your style and with the addition of Talismans which improve certain aspects to your abilities in all 3 styles.

    if you played the first, its a no brainer to get the new one. 10/10

    Gravity Rush 2 feels like a true sequel to the original game. Kat feels and looks amazing, the world she lives in is astounding and the OST and sound design really give this game an anime movie look. The game looks like it would've benefited from a higher frame rate, and the stealth missions do feel dull, but overall it's a good game and a great addition to your PS4 library.

    A bigger, better sequel to an interesting idea, but one that falls slightly short of greatness. [March 2017, p.74]

    Beautiful carnage, free gravity cat, and no consequences. How can you not go head over heels about a game like that? [March 2016, p72]
