A brutal, beautifully crafted story-driven action game with top-tier combat and visuals. Skip it if you loved Part I's story and won't accept playing as Abby or a bleak, divisive plot.
Great for
Story-driven players who want emotional, mature narratives plus brutal stealth-action combat and stunning graphics
Main risk
The divisive story (playing as Abby, Joel's fate, bleak ending) can ruin the game for Part I fans
