God Eater 2: Rage Burst is a fast-paced action RPG that blends high-stakes combat, anime storytelling, and deep customization into a monster-hunting experience that’s both stylistically bold and mechanically rich. Originally released as an enhanced version of God Eater 2, this iteration brings additional story content, weapons, and balance adjustments, helping it stand on firmer ground as a standalone title. Set in a dystopian world overrun by monstrous entities known as Aragami, the game tasks players with joining the Blood unit—an elite squad of God Eaters—to protect what’s left of humanity. While comparisons to the Monster Hunter series are inevitable, Rage Burst carves out its own identity through its speed, storytelling, and heavy focus on character relationships. Combat is undoubtedly the heart of the game, and it delivers with intensity. The God Arc—the transforming weapon used by all God Eaters—serves as the core of the experience, allowing players to switch seamlessly between melee, ranged, and shield modes mid-battle. Each weapon type brings a distinct playstyle, and with multiple melee forms (such as Buster Blades, Short Blades, and Scythes) and several gun forms, the combat system is highly customizable. Fights against Aragami are frantic and often demanding, requiring quick reflexes, strategic positioning, and smart use of limited resources. The addition of the Blood Arts system—special techniques tied to weapon types—adds further complexity, encouraging experimentation and mastery over time. The sheer number of build possibilities ensures combat never feels repetitive, even if mission structures sometimes do. The flow of gameplay revolves around accepting missions from the Fenrir branch, slaying specific Aragami, and collecting materials to craft better gear. While the mission format can become formulaic—especially in the early game—it’s the fast-paced action and satisfying progression that keep the loop engaging. The AI-controlled teammates are surprisingly competent and can hold their own in combat, making solo play viable and enjoyable, though the game really shines in multiplayer co-op. Being able to team up with friends to take down towering beasts enhances both the challenge and the thrill of the hunt. Enemy designs, particularly the Aragami, are another high point. These monsters are otherworldly and creative, combining futuristic technology, mythology, and horror elements into truly unique foes. Narratively, God Eater 2: Rage Burst takes itself seriously, and while the storytelling isn’t always subtle, it’s deeply committed to building a cohesive and emotional world. The Blood unit’s members are given plenty of screen time, and their personalities are fleshed out through both main story scenes and side interactions. Themes of loss, survival, duty, and human connection are threaded throughout the campaign, and though the pacing occasionally drags, especially during dialogue-heavy segments, it’s hard not to feel invested in the fate of the team. The protagonist is a silent character, but their role is central and impactful, acting as a stabilizing force in a group frequently tested by grief, moral ambiguity, and overwhelming odds. Graphically, the game reflects its origins as a handheld title. While Rage Burst received a visual upgrade for PC and console, it still carries over some simplistic textures and low-poly models. That said, the art direction is stylish and cohesive, with bold character designs, slick UI elements, and intense, cinematic effects during combat. The flashy animations and dramatic battle sequences make up for the dated visuals. The soundtrack, composed by Go Shiina, is excellent—delivering a blend of orchestral, electronic, and vocal tracks that elevate the tension and emotion in both battles and story scenes. The voice acting (available in Japanese with English subtitles) is generally strong and contributes to the game’s dramatic tone. From a content standpoint, Rage Burst is generous. Beyond the main campaign, the game includes a large number of optional missions, high-difficulty challenges, and post-game content. There’s a deep crafting system with hundreds of weapons and armor pieces to build and upgrade, encouraging long-term engagement and experimentation with different builds. Additionally, the newly introduced “Blood Rage” mechanic adds another strategic layer during combat, allowing players to unleash powerful enhancements by fulfilling certain combat conditions. These additions help give endgame players more to chew on, though the grind can become noticeable in later stages as resource requirements grow steeper. Despite its many strengths, the game isn’t without flaws. The mission structure can become repetitive, especially in the early to mid-game, and the difficulty curve is inconsistent. Some missions feel far too easy, while others spike suddenly, depending on your equipment or familiarity with enemy attack patterns. The UI, though stylish, can feel cluttered at times, especially when sorting through the extensive crafting menus. Additionally, while the story is ambitious, its delivery—through static dialogue scenes and occasional exposition dumps—may not appeal to players looking for more cinematic storytelling. Still, God Eater 2: Rage Burst remains a compelling experience for fans of anime action RPGs and monster-hunting games. Its emphasis on speed, character-driven narrative, and deep combat customization sets it apart from others in the genre. Though it doesn’t entirely escape the limitations of its handheld roots, the improvements made in the Rage Burst edition are substantial enough to offer a rich, satisfying experience, particularly for those willing to engage with its systems and invest in its world. Whether you're drawn in by the thrill of battling monstrous Aragami or the bonds formed with your squadmates, God Eater 2: Rage Burst offers an emotionally charged, action-heavy journey well worth taking.

Both this game and GE:R will hold a special place in my heart till the end of my days. I do have my gripes about the series but the music and the storylines come together and hook you on an emotional experience. I prefer a lot more narrative aspects of GE:R but GE2:RB really had a good second half and fleshed out one of my least-liked characters 'Romeo' fairly well. Although the ending is spontaneous I still enjoyed it but most of all the music is the best experience of the entire game: Blood Rage, Tree of Life, Revolving Lantern, and Gods and Men are some of the best emotional tracks this game has to offer and they utilize them at excellent cinematic moments that further hammers them into you. Overall this series I have a lot to be thankful for and I wouldn't recommend it to just anyone because of the grind and the tedium of a lot of aspects of older anime games (I'm looking at you .hack//G.U.) but to those who this game is truly for I know they will enjoy it and hopefully just maybe this game will stop the impending race war.

Anime Monster Hunter on speed. Includes God Eater Resurrection which is very similar. This one starts really slow with many fights against the same monsters. The variety of monsters gets better later, but still many fights against the same monsters. So far it has been very easy, easier than the first one. But it is fun. Wait for a sale, i bought all 3 for 7€ (-90% on bundle!), i would not buy this one for 50€. Update: At difficulty 11 they switched from "too easy" to "insanley hard and annoying", stopping for now.
