VERDICT: A lot of comparisons to Dark Souls have been made to The Surge since its inception but would be doing the game a massive disservice. While foundations may be parallel to the From Software series, The Surge 2 further moves away from its initial contemporaries as well as addressing some shortcoming of the previous title.
While still not perfect The Surge 2 is everything you expect in a sequel, even if they don’t go as far as you may have wanted them to.
