The verdict
A huge, content-packed LEGO Marvel sequel with a giant roster and fun co-op, but buggy, with tedious bosses and a 100% grind. Skip if you want the first game's polish.
Great for
Marvel and LEGO fans, co-op with kids or friends, and completionists who tolerate grind
Main risk
Bugs, crashes (Grandmaster arena) and tedious boss fights make it feel like a downgrade from the first game
