Aragami 2

Aragami 2 is the second instalment of the stealth games cycle which began in 2016. The game was developed by the authors of the original, i.e. the independent studio Lince Works.

Plot

In Aragami 2, we once again take on the role of one of the Aragami. We are talking about elite warriors affected by a mysterious disease that is slowly destroying their bodies and minds, while at the same time giving them supernatural abilities to control the shadows. The hero's task is to protect the Rashomon Valley and to free other representatives of his clan who have been imprisoned by the invading army. Besides, the hero has to deal with the disease that afflicts him before it ends his life.

Mechanics

In Aragami 2 the action was shown from the third person perspective (TPP). Performing the tasks most often requires acting in hiding and eliminating adversaries from the surprise. This is made easier by the hero's supernatural abilities, who is able not only to control shadows, but also, among other things, to teleport himself at short distances (for example, to look at the nearest area from above). When everything else fails, there is nothing left for us to do but stand up to fight; during clashes with enemies we have to make quick and precise katana cuts, block incoming attacks and perform instant counter-attacks. Moreover, as we progress, we increase the combat potential of the protagonist. On the three skill trees, there is room for 42 skilles to unlock; besides, during the game, we gain resources to create a new arsenal and armor.

Game modes

In Aragami 2 it is possible to play alone or in the company of up to two players, in cooperation mode.

Technical aspects

The graphic design of Aragami 2 has been maintained in a colourful, slightly cartoon-like style; nevertheless, the game is quite brutal.
