I am so psyched Psychonauts 2 got released recently and available directly as of day 1 on the Xbox Game Pass (including on the cloud with Xbox Cloud Gaming). To celebrate this release, I decided to play both Psychonauts games, with the 1st entry being discussed on • Let's Play Psychonauts on Xbox Cloud ... .
Psychonauts 2 is a 3D platform game with a fun design style, funny situations and characters, and solid gameplay. I really liked how you can use psychic power you learn little by little in this 1st stage, and I feel the art direction is top notched and smart. I played for around an hour of the game, and I really liked it. I will be honest I am not an expert on platformers but I liked the fact each enemy may have different weaknesses you can use to your advantage, and some of the powers may unlock secret passages here and there! Overall, I am glad I got to play the game, and all this with the Xbox Cloud Gaming, which I didn't feel had any slowness, and I really appreciated that.
