Critic Reviews
The Outerhaven’s Surge 2 Review
Deck 13 has taken everything that made the first game a solid Soulslike entry and has refined everything. The Surge 2 doesn’t change the game but will provide an enjoyable time for those who enjoy the genre.

Deck13’s futuristic limb removal simulator is a solid but generic entry into the Soulslike genre.
70%The Surge 2 Review
The Surge 2 is a satisfyingly challenging game with fluid, fast and intense combat that rewards players investment. It’s not going to change the minds of Soulsborne detractors, but it’s got enough smart, unique features and interesting evolutions of the genre’s systems to put it on the radar of its fans. It’s far from a FromSoftware level game, but it’s a worthy alternative with a lot to offer.
