Set immediately after the original, Psychonauts 2 follows Raz finally getting to work for the psychic secret agents known as the Psychonauts. The elusive organisation are worried that they have a mole in their ranks after the events that took place at Whispering Rock Psychic Summer Camp, and even though he's only an intern Razputin is determined to help. Our hero's new mission will see him jumping into many a mind, battling people's inner demons, and using a range of new and returning psychic powers.
The pure charm of Double Fine is as impressive as ever, and the tightened up platforming is a delight. Each world you enter is more pleasing than the last, and the combat manages to perfectly blend with the cranial theme. Fans of the series will almost certainly adore this exceptional sequel, and if you're on the fence then the Game Pass launch might be able to sway you. Psychonauts 2 will be talked about in GOTY discussions, and you should play it.
