I might be a little hesitant to give my review so soon, especially in the current state of the PC release and its online lobbies, but I'm gonna hold out hope and say that it shouldn't be a problem for much longer.
Hot off the press of my Under Night 1 re-review, Under Night In-Birth II Sys:Celes has finally released. As I said there, I pre-ordered the game because I absolutely loved the first one, and had very high hopes for its sequel. To be playing it after the long months of waiting, yeah it's really good!
I sang all my praises of the first game, and that all still rings true in 2. Every character is unique and enjoyable, the current newcomers are all a blast (hell i'm even switching off of Hilda for Kaguya for now), and the game is just as quick and snappy as before. Among the new soundtrack, a new network menu theme, new character select music (which i'm willing to argue is better than the first game's), all that good noise, everybody has received remixes to their old battle themes. What else am I gonna say, they're all fantastic. Some more major than others, such as Hilda's, some simply got a bit of a remaster. Thankfully, we've managed to keep Canon in Initial D, and it's even better than ever. (i'm sorry this is like my favorite theme in the game, i cannot get over it lmao)
I don't have much else to say, it's a cleaner, newer, banger Under Night, bringing in some new additions to the roster and spicing up what we already had a nice amount. I'm glad the sequel lived up to my expectations, and I am definitely looking forward to spending a shit ton more hours in it.
im also looking forward to being able to play online but yknow when does anybody get a succesful release day, right?
