Absolute gem. Don't listen to haters however long their reviews are. When you finish this game and look back 30h you'll get the same feeling you get when you finish a great book, saga or TV series. Beautiful nostalgia

Rogue Legacy 2 builds on the clever foundation of its predecessor by expanding the idea of hereditary progression into a rich, mechanically diverse roguelite that blends fast-paced action with deep customization. Every time a character falls in battle, a new descendant steps up to continue the family legacy—each with unique traits, randomized stats, and one of many unlockable classes. These traits can range from comical quirks like upside-down vision or flatulence, to more serious gameplay modifiers that impact damage or mobility. The system not only adds variety but also keeps every run feeling fresh, and the incentive of gold bonuses for choosing more difficult traits creates an interesting risk-reward dynamic. The game features a wide roster of character classes, each of which introduces entirely new combat and movement mechanics. Whether you’re playing a nimble Ranger who crafts mid-air platforms or a Boxer who builds momentum through combo chains, each class has a distinct feel that demands different strategies. As you progress, the combat becomes more layered, requiring smart positioning, cooldown management, and quick reflexes. The addition of class-specific mastery levels gives even more reason to rotate through characters rather than sticking to a favorite, encouraging experimentation and growth over time. Exploration takes place across a series of visually distinct biomes, from lush forests to eerie caverns and ruined towers. These areas are gated behind heirloom trials, which function as mini-dungeons designed to test your platforming and combat skills. Unlocking a new ability like double-jump or air-dash not only opens up new paths in future runs but also enhances the fluidity of movement, turning the early, grounded gameplay into something far more agile and dynamic. The castle itself is procedurally generated each run but remains logically connected, giving a sense of familiarity even within its ever-changing walls. Progression outside of runs is just as satisfying. Gold earned during expeditions can be spent on upgrading your family estate, unlocking new character classes, stat boosts, passive abilities, and useful NPCs. This meta-layer adds long-term purpose to each attempt, whether successful or not. There's also a Soul Shop that allows you to unlock permanent bonuses using a separate currency earned through optional combat challenges. For players looking for a more tailored experience, House Rules provide a welcome layer of customization, letting you tweak everything from enemy health to game speed, which makes the game approachable for a wide range of skill levels. While platforming and movement feel smooth for the most part, certain platforming rooms can be a source of frustration. These challenge areas often require pinpoint precision, and the game’s weighty physics combined with the varying size and speed of different classes can make them feel inconsistent. Still, the frustration is usually balanced by the sense of accomplishment when you finally clear a particularly difficult obstacle or puzzle room. Visually, Rogue Legacy 2 shines with a vibrant and expressive art style that moves away from pixel graphics in favor of hand-drawn backdrops and 3D character models. The aesthetic is both whimsical and dramatic, matching the game’s blend of humor and high-stakes action. Each area has a unique personality, with strong audio and soundtrack work to back it up. The music during heirloom trials and boss encounters, in particular, stands out as thematically powerful and immersive. Though it may take some time to fully unlock all its systems, Rogue Legacy 2 proves itself to be one of the most well-rounded and rewarding entries in the roguelite genre. It balances moment-to-moment gameplay with long-term progression beautifully, rewarding skillful play while also respecting the time of players through meaningful meta-upgrades. The sheer amount of content, combined with polished mechanics and a commitment to variety, makes it a standout experience. For anyone who enjoyed the original or is seeking a roguelite that constantly evolves with each run, Rogue Legacy 2 is a masterfully crafted successor that more than lives up to its lineage. Rating: 8/10

Didn't play the first one, but after playing this one I will have to go check it out as it was better than I was expecting. Very high replay value, good story, and enough RNG to keep it interesting.

I would describe the game as a metroidvania first, with some roguelite elements. The game has a lot of permanent progression and upgrades. Bossfights aren't randomized and are only defeated once, staying dead after subsequent runs. You also unlock many ways to mitigate the "randomness" associated with roguelikes, being able to lock the dungeon to not procedurally generate anew after dying for example. The game is as "lite" as it gets in terms of being a roguelike. This doesn't make it a bad game, it's just something you should know so you don't go into it with the wrong expectations. The gameplay is absolutely fantastic. Combat and platforming and the fusion of the two through the spin kick mechanic is extremely satisfying. A lot of that satisfaction also comes from the sound design.
