The Surge 2 has been in development for quite a while now but we haven’t heard many details at all. Well, thanks to an Xbox store listing, that has now changed.
The title is currently slated to release on September 24th with the following details:
On the way to Jericho City, your plane is shot down by a mysterious storm and crash-lands in the outskirts. Armor-clad soldiers enforce Martial Law, robots are on a rampage, and a dark, expanding nanostorm looms over the cityscape…
- Hardcore, brutal melee combat
- Face deadly foes and colossal bosses
- Cut off parts of the enemy you want to loot
- Rich character progression and customization
Our Take
The Surge offered a unique take on the Souls formula and despite some shortcomings, was an enjoyable game with some fresh ideas. We hope Focus Home Interactive expands upon that for the sequel with broader level design and customization. We’ll likely know more next week!
