Back in 2017, The Surge jumped into the souls-like genre bringing with it, new challenging, visceral combat and a new sci-fi world to get stuck in to. Its futuristic exo-suit combat model was well received and brought about a successful new IP. Now The Surge 2<\/a> is almost upon us and you\u2019re probably wondering whether it\u2019s the game for you? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Firstly and most obviously, if you played the original and enjoyed it, chances are you\u2019re going to enjoy the sequel. It looks to build on what made the first game good and offer a hell of a lot more of that. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But what if you didn’t? What if this is your first foray into the souls-like genre? Hopefully, we can clear some things up for you and help you make a decision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do you like Customisation? <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Plus a whole host of other abilities and implants at your fingertips.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Surge 2 takes to an entirely new setting – the devastated Jericho City, featuring larger more expansive levels designs, new secrets to uncover, new allies to meet and new terrifying bosses to challenge. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You arrive in Jericho City after your plane is shot down by the mysterious storm covering the city and you crash lands on the outskirts. The city is under Martial Law, robots are on the rampage and the dark nano storm is an ever foreboding presence over the city. There is plenty to see and more importantly plenty to fight in this bigger more ambitious sequel. 
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If The Surge was a solid foundation for a new take on the souls-like genre, then The Surge 2<\/a> is looking to build on those successes and deliver a more robust, complex and deep gameplay experience for new and veteran players alike. Suit up on the 24th September 2019<\/a> to take on the brand new challenges the game has to offer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
