Valhalla Knights 2

"Final Fantasy and monster hunter fans gather round"

Quite some time ago a barely heard of dungeon crawler came out for the psp. this game was called Valhalla Knights. While it had its flaws it was stiil an enjoyable game of sorts. A while later Valhalla Knights 2 was released and improved on these flaws but still kept some

Gameplay: 9/10

the gameplay in valhalla knights 2 is much like the first but improves with a bigger battle area in battles and more weapons and armor to select from, the game also offers more character customization options for those who like their character to look just like themselves, offering many enjoyable quests that range from killing certain monsters to collecting certain items this game will be enjoyed by many FF fans and monster hunter fans alike, and the battle system reminds me alot of the system in crisis cor FF7 and FF12 with you even regaining your mp as you run around the map, with free gameplay that lasts 85-100 hours or more you cant go wrong with this one.

Graphics: 8.5/10

The graphics in Valhalla knights 2 has massivly improved over the first and are very crisp, enviroments look neat and and are not as muddy as the first game, and the overall load times for moving from area to area are only about 3 seconds long. Characters also look nice and crisp as do their animations, but sometimes theres a little repeat in battle animations, and with all the character customization options you can surely make your character look some bit like yourself

Sound: 8.5/10

The sound in the game is enjoyable from the noises of battle to the peaceful music of your in-town adventures, my only cmplaint here is that you only hear voice acting in the big CG effect cutscenes theres no in-game voice acting

Story: 7.5/10

The in-game story leads you to one event after another, it involves you becoming a loyal latroci because five years before your orphamage was burned down and you were saved by latroci guards and ever since vowed to be one.

Multiplayer: ?

supposedly there is ad-hoc multiplayer where you can play with one of your friends and crawl through dungeons giving you the opportunity to have a good time with friends, sadly theirs no infrastructure though

Replay Value: 10/10

Overall there is tons of replay value to be found here this game will surley be one of you dearest companions for a long time

Overall: 8/10

if you want a good rpg-dungeon crawler game with a good story and awesome customization options on the go then this is your game, it may just quench your thirst for a longlasting game too^-^
