    juego indispensable para cualquier amante de las plataformas en 2D con un pixel art de 10, música, jugabilidad, lore, evolución del personaje, mapa... es simplemente espectacular, una verdadera obra de arte, si eres seguidor del soulslike también tienes motivos para celebrarlo con este pedazo de juego.

    love it. it's hard, but so rewarding. part one already had me spellbound, but part two got right to the little glitches and smoothed them out. Ladders, enemy variety, weapon selection, etc.

    Buen juego, mucho mas corto que el primero pero el combate es mas rapido en este, como buen juego de este tipo no te dice mucho de tus habilidades o del mapa, eso lo tienes que buscar. Gran juego

    Loved the first one and loved the second one. It takes away the itch for metroidvanias.

    Blasphemous 2 scratched an itch I didn’t even realize I had, I am not a fan of soulsbourne games, but I think I AM a fan of roguelikes, especially this one that took the best parts from the metroidvania genre and expertly weaved with the ‘Souls’ type combat. Boasting a strange and evocative narrative that is presented with beautifully painted and animated cutscenes that look like works of art hanging in the Louvre, Blasphemous 2 is itself a work of art.

    Blasphemous 2 is a sequel that lives up to expectations. Offering us a wider range of weapons to choose from in combat, and a much lighter and faster gameplay than its predecessor, it manages to trap us in a broad story that is told bit by bit. Leaving aside the roguelike genre and focusing on the purest metroidvania, we have ahead dozens of hours of fun in its original dark world, and has an atmosphere and an artistic design that will remain forever in the history of 2D platform video games.

    2023 has been a banner year for games, and it’s clear that Blasphemous 2 sits in the upper echelons of those releases, a beautifully grotesque Metroidvania that’s deserving of everyone's time. From the gloriously gruesome visuals to its ferociously paced combat and beautiful soundtrack, Blasphemous 2 is an instant classic in the genre.
