    Really enjoyed this remake. Combat is great and i have found myself losing track of time while playing; if something that's a good sign.

    Brilliant game, a perfect tribute to the original game. The tweaks to gameplay are a very welcome addition. The graphics are phenomenal, probably some of the best graphics available at the moment. The story still hold up for the most part, although it felt shorter than it did previously. Though this is likely due to the enhanced movement speeding up mission completion times. Overrall ifBrilliant game, a perfect tribute to the original game.

    Don’t listen to the critics. This game is a blast and especially for only $39. They could have charged AAA prices.

    Be very careful. This game is so bugged it’s laughable. It has ps2 level pop-up. The Frame rate is the worst I’ve seen this generation. There is no polish at all. I am not just whining. The game removed Takoshima from the game. All of a sudden I can’t progress at all. I deleted and reinstalled and the same. I am considering being done with ps5.

    The game has crashed upwards of 10 times. This last crash corrupted my save file and erased hours of progress.

    There's also a crazy amount of general bugs.

    The game is alright, but not good enough for me to replay all of this content. Maybe I'll get back to it in the future, but right now it just feels like my time was wasted.

    Enjoyed every minute of it, a well done remaster. The game doesn’t take it so serious, with jokes that don’t fit the current woke climate it’s a breath of fresh air.

    Destroy All Humans! 2: Reprobed does a great job in most ways. By letting the writing and core concepts of the original game shine by not changing them much and overhauling the two areas that really needed it – the controls and the visuals – it absolutely has the right idea for how to remake a PS2-era classic. The jokes are still funny, the story is still a ridiculous rollercoaster ride of nonsense, and the gameplay and visuals have been given the upgrade they deserve. If the whole package was properly polished off and ran as well as it clearly could and should, I’d be over the moon. But as it is, it’s a tentative recommendation assuming the more serious bugs I mentioned get ironed out. That aside, for the price, Reprobed does seem to have most of the fundamentals in place for a successful modernization of a series that still clearly has plenty of life left in it.    … Expand

    Sadly the worst game I played on ps5. Such a bummer because I like this game but it is unplayable. Crashes, insane frame rate drops, buggy objectives :(

    Edit: okay, this game deserves a 0, it crashed on me over 20 times while completing misc post content. Really really bad performance on ps5. A ps2 game running badly on ps5? Do not waste a dollar on this game until it is patch (so never buy it).

    This is an awesome remaster and the visuals are gorgeous. The game is just genuinely fun to play, I find myself playing for several hours at a time. It's kind of like GTA meets "Mars Attacks." *UPDATE* They patched the **** out of this game and it runs like a dream, I barely see drops and any bugs left are genuinely hilarious.

    This game is absolutely amazing! They took the original game from the ps2 and improved every aspects of it for modern day gamers. I didn't want to give it a 10 because I know I have alot of nostalgia for it. But I highly recommend this for anyone that played it before or never experienced this fun game.

    Outstanding game very faithful to the original game the graphics are outstanding for a non-AAA studio the jokes are very funny for someone who can just tone down 2022 humor and accept that there was a time when games can have enjoyable crude humor.

    I had to make an account just to post my own review after seeing some of the pretentious miserable “critics” opinions of this game.

    If you can’t find the humour in inserting anal probes into NPCs butts while their heads explode so you can collect their brains, in a game called “Destroy All Humans” - a game that’s about playing a little alien stereotype from the 50’s and 60’s, and if you    I had to make an account just to post my own review after seeing some of the pretentious miserable “critics” opinions of this game.

    Thank Christ it stayed as true as possible to the original, because it’s pretty clear people nowadays don’t even know what humour is.

    All that aside, the game is as great as I could have imagined for a PS2 remake. It looks and plays great on PS5, has a great array of weapons and skins, NPCs react and look great. It’s genuinely hilarious to just romp around as a psychotic alien doing a Jack Nicholson impersonation. Mission structure is admittedly a little dated at this point but it still flows well enough and you can always play free roam once you’ve done the main missions to either mess around or gather collectibles. The addition of co-op is great and even has some cool mini games that weren’t in the original too. Anyone who says this is just a lazy remake is a grade A moron. I’ve seen some lazy remakes and this really ain’t one of them. You can tell that the team cared about the original game. It’s also not even being sold at full “PS5 game” price either, which makes me even more baffled by the negative reviews it seems to have gotten. Anyway, if you want a laugh, to kick back, and dare I say it destroy some humans, this game is for you.    … Expand

    If they kept telekinesis and the dislocator the same as the original I would’ve given it a 10/10.

    Destroy All Humans! 2: Reprobed is another great remake-sequel, and it is a sign that we need to support THQ Nordic more. Who knows, we might even get a full-on sequel in time!

    There’s some enjoyable fast-food gaming in here, but it’s buried beneath a painfully unfunny script and unambitious mission design. This ET should go home. [Issue#19, p.80]

    A very good remake of the cult action-adventure game. Crypto's world is more beautiful than ever before, the environments grander and more imposing - as is the inevitable chaos and destruction that the alien hero brings about. Great to play and great to look at - but the game is dragged back by some technical issues.
