    Ponies the worst fanbase ever...
    people are really this mental to rate a game 0 just because its from MS ...
    the game on ps and its run good...
    at least they didn't cancel the version...
    if its sony...there will be no Xbox Version...

    the game is great and fantastic dont believe the ponies and their mental problems..

    It is a clear evolution respecting the first installment. It feels new and dynamic, it makes you want to keep playing and exploring. It's beautiful and a lot of fun. I doubt I exceeded a third.

    I have zero clue why people are reviewbombing this game, and I truly don’t see any reason to do so. This game is whimsical, absolutely hilarious, beautifully stylized and just such a joy to play.

    Amazing game, innovative levels, great story. Everything Psychonauts 2 sought to achieve it did. With a story that connected well the the first and paid off a few things from there while also expanding the world in great ways. The game hits hard when it wants to and has a good message at the end of the day. Please if you can play the first and this one, they are journeys you won’t forget,Amazing game, innovative levels, great story. Everything Psychonauts 2 sought to achieve it did.

    It's Just the best game of the year until nós for me. Along side "It takes two" and "Ratchet and Clank", it's a really good exemplar of modern plataformers done right. It has a few rough edges, but it's simple not enough to takes a way the Fun and the masterclass of good level design.

    As someone who doesn't like 3D platform games, I was amazed be how much the original won me over back in the day. Fast forward to present day and lightning has struck twice. This game is just as funny, well written, and a trip to play as the original. Another feather in the hat from the company that gave us Grim Fandango and Full Throttle. Well done Double Fine.

    Excellent game. The story and characters are awesome. It looks great too on series X. So happy psychonauts is back after all this time. Really charming platformer with interesting themes. Very unique game. For anyone who bases their actually purchases (which you prob don't need to purchase because you can try P2 on gamepass) off user scores on metacritic, you shouldn't.

Look at some of the silly user scores. Someone gave it a 2 because they watched it on youtube. And another person who writes english well gave it a 1 because it's not in russian. Metacritic really needs a filter for this stuff. Anyways enjoy the game everyone.… Expand

    Do not pay attention to those who say it is not worth it because it is in the "poor pass" people who say that seem to lack more attention. The game is a real wonder that you get caught from the beginning, a story and levels that are a beauty

    Fantastic 3D platformer adventure ! the art style is really unique and imaginative, the gameplay and level design are amazingn the collectibles, secrets, all that is a call back to the old school era of Platformers, and is really funny, characters are likable and each of them has its own personality. Raz especially is a really likable character

    This game is unique in its own way. Never before was I hooked so much to a platformer. Unique Art-styles and visuals add to the game's fun and charismatic feel. Combat is polished as well.
    It's a well rounded experience. Worth a try!!!

    Not my type of game but it's available on Game Pass and I figured let's give it a shot. Right from the start you can tell this is an absolutely fun game. My 3yo loves watching along while exploring this vibrant world and characters. Not sure about this GOTY year talk but the review bombing is absolutely pathetic.

    Psychonauts 2 managed to restore my faith in the genre of 3D platformers. This is a creative volcano spewing ideas left and right - it can make you laugh, it can make you cry, it can make you think. And it will definitely make you have fun.

    Psychonauts 1 is the perfect example of the term cult classic, and Psychonauts 2 has created another masterpiece that I am only assuming won’t receive the attention it deserves. They have perfected and expanded on their original idea in every way and created a world full of heart and fun. It’s been well documented that the last few years it took to bake were used to expand the boss battles, and finely polish the areas that were complete. It’s clear that the added funds from being a Microsoft studio were put to good use and the team at Double Fine should be very proud of what they have created. I cannot wait to see what they create next.
