Better than the first game, but I think this series as a whole aged poorly graphically and gameplay-wise. Voice acting is still hilariously bad and some of the music is still catchy. I couldn't imagine finishing it without PS5's rewind feature.

Weaker than the first entry because of a horrendous slog through the final third. Putting the Aljir and Agency Labs missions back to back is horrendous and miserable.

The game is fantastic and a deserving continuation of the series. However, my only concern is that while the enemies have been enhanced with new abilities such as rolling, hiding, and aiming for headshots compared to the first instalment, the main characters have retained the same restricted set of moves. This creates an unbalanced gameplay experience that was absent in the first game.
