    Revenge of the Savage Planet is a worthy successor to the previous game, especially if you have a buddy to take along for the ride.

    Revenge of the Savage Planet is a fantastic Metroidvania Sci-fi adventure. It can be enjoyed alone or locally and online with another. The drip-fed mechanics, exploration elements, and vibrant worlds are a joy to experience. Though the action can sometimes feel overwhelming, this shouldn't put you off. Accordingly, it is a gem of a game and a must-play experience.

    It's a game worth every minute spent exploring, feeling free, and, most importantly, having fun like kids . It's a must-have on Xbox Game Pass and, without a doubt, a gem in the Xbox catalog. If you still have doubts, play it and discover it for yourself. I'm almost certain you'll have a great time.

    A sequel that eclipses its forebear in just about every department, Revenge of the Savage Planet is an immensely enjoyable platforming adventure with a lovely vein of slapstick comedy and daft satire lampooning unchecked corporate avarice.

    Witty and self-aware, Revenge of the Savage Planet is a fun, breezy sequel ideal for co-op play. Some bugs remain, but its charm and humor make it well worth checking out.

    If you took the journey five years ago to Journey to the Savage Planet, you’ll want to book a trip to Revenge of the Savage Planet as well. Marmite humour and low-key exploration pleasures aside, Revenge of the Savage Planet is a good and enjoyable time that allows you to scan to your heart’s content and mosey through unknown landscapes to complete objectives and challenges en route to your ultimate revenge. Revenge of the Savage Planet won’t take up much of your time either, but just know that this brand of revenge is a dish served with a slice of weirdness and a platter of squirt burgers—meaning you should just go and have fun for a while.

    Revenge of the Savage Planet bursts with charm and smart systems but stumbles over clunky UI, repetition and performance hiccups. Look past its flaws, and you’ll find a colorful, co-op-fueled adventure that leaves you wanting more.
