Kat is flawed, but hopelessly likable, and feels far more human than her somewhat bland characterization in the original. Kat is a lot of things: Endlessly positive, fiercely loyal, and incredibly powerful - but also vain, competitive, gullible, insecure, and surprisingly susceptible to flattery. Personality bursts from every seam: The comic book-inspired dialogue sequences, the incredibly good music, the beautiful, painterly graphical style, the gorgeous, sprawling cities and their thousands of tiny loving details, and the characters themselves, especially Kat. Many players will forgive the game’s flaws - its haphazard story, maddening camera, awkward stealth missions and imperfect controls - upon discovering Gravity Rush 2’s overwhelming charm. Granted it doesn’t always make sense, as the connections that bond these settings into a single narrative feel tenuous.
It’s a long, bittersweet, surprisingly epic journey - over 40 hours even if you don’t bother with every side quest and skill challenge. After the credits roll - the first time they roll, at least - Gravity Rush 2 really goes bonkers in a third, final chapter.Įvery time you think you’re almost done, a new enemy appears or another epilogue unfolds, and the game finally answers some of the series’ biggest questions. In Hekseville, Kat contends with a mad scientist and his angelic daughters as they attempt to freeze time itself. The second third of the game takes place back in Hekseville, the drab brownstone city from the first game, which has thankfully received a makeover. The first act is a story of revolution set in the floating city of Jirga Para Lhao, where Kat befriends an underground criminal element and helps overthrow the city’s evil council of rulers. Following the game’s prologue, they dock in the enormous Jirga Para Lhao. When the game picks up, Kat’s been taken in by the migrant Banga Settlement, a tribe of nomadic gravity ore miners. Gravity Rush 2 is massive It feels like an entire trilogy jammed into one extremely long game. She uses these powers to protect the weak, defend her cities, and combat a race of evil creatures known as Nevi.Įven when it’s infuriating, Gravity Rush 2 remains charming She plummets through the air in whatever direction you choose, pausing and re-starting gravity at will, while using “stasis fields” to grab and hurl people, objects and enemies around and tilting the whole world so she can slide along the ground. Like the original, Gravity Rush 2 stars Kat, a mysterious woman who controls gravity with the help of her kitty sidekick Dusty. And although Gravity Rush 2 often threatens to topple under its own weight, it ultimately stands as tall as the World Pillar that holds its floating cities aloft.
Rush team 2 rating series#
With the PS4’s Gravity Rush 2, the niche series gets a bigger stage, and it’s grown in kind to fit its new home.Īs it turns out, Gravity Rush 2 is The Lord of the Rings, while the original Gravity Rush, released on Vita in 2012, turns out to be The Hobbit - a charming progenitor that pales compared with what followed. Created by original Silent Hill designer Keiichiro Toyama, Gravity Rush is the exception.
Rush team 2 rating Ps4#
Most don’t get remastered for PS4 four years after their release, and even fewer get full-blown sequels the year after that. Plenty of decent games have come and gone on Sony’s PS Vita, remembered by few thanks to the system’s limited audience.
