The first-ever look at The Surge 2's gameplay has been released by the developer Deck13 and publisher Focus Home Interactive.
The trailer showcases some intense combat that reminds me of Dark Souls and a new Park sector that is located in the middle of a city devastated by the events of the previous game.
This time around, the Hunters roam the Park's artificial forest in search of a “powerful creature.” Exploring the place, players will need to watch out for their traps, cloaking devices that hide them, and most of all, the out-of-control former park guardians.
According to Deck13, The Surge 2 keeps what fans liked about the first game, such as its hardcore combat that utilized a unique, dynamic limb targeting system that allows you sever the limbs of your enemies and use them as weapons our your armor. Also, it will contain the first game's “deep character progression.”
Other improvements include “larger and more ambitious level design,” which was made possible by engine upgrades, as well as more brutal combat that features more tactics, advanced dodging, directional parrying, and “unique AI behaviors.”
Other than more weapons, implants, drones, and abilities have been added to player's arsenals as they take on a set of “diverse new enemies and bosses.”
The Surge 2 is in development for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. The release date is yet to be announced but we may expect it to hit around second half of 2019.
