This isn’t really enough to stop you enjoying the game but it is noticeable. The only slight niggle is some poor performance during co-op in the open hub world where the frame rate can drop substantially, I’m playing on a base PS4. One of the big positives of the LEGO games is the drop in drop out co-op player, and this this all present here. Players experienced with other action combat games will think everything is pretty simplistic, but I imagine the younger player could struggle with some of the intricacies. It feels like each character has a different skill set, and whilst they all share the same basic jump and attack, they have a range of secondary skills.
LEGO MARVEL SUPER HEROES 2 PS4 FULL
From characters who can fly in full 3D to a deceptively involved combat system. Whilst the game may be aimed towards children, there is an awful lot going on. Completing the story missions will probably see you through around ten hours or so, dependant on skill level, but the post credits open world stuff will keep you going indefinitely. This big open world is packed full of collectibles and side quests and is really well put together. This is where the game revels in playing around with tonnes to do and unlock. The other half of the game is post credits when the open world is freely available to explore and you’ve the choice of using any character you’ve collected, and can go back and use these in the story levels. The levels can also vary in length with some over very quickly indeed. These fights are both interesting and different to play, often having a puzzle element to them. The majority of these levels are geared around boss fights which now seems to be the games focus. These story missions involve lots of puzzles and plenty of platforming. The first is a tightly focused story where you are chaperoned between levels and have to use set characters to complete these. LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2 is sort of a game of two halves. It really is exciting and funny to see all these old characters given a decent outing. These lesser known characters all get a moment to shine as the heroes they are and all bring different abilities, and voices, to the fray. Whilst the big hitters like Thor and Iron Man drive the main thrust of the story, every level seems to introduce a new character and lets you play as them as they complete their own personal heroic endeavour. I’ve mentioned above how the focus in this game is on the lower echelons of the Marvel characters, and in many ways this is its main strength. Whilst this may be complicated to fully explain it does make for a varied and enjoyable environment to play in. This is basically an excuse to have areas based on different marvel properties such as the wild west, medieval England and a version of the future where the baddies from Hydra won. The story follows an invasion by Kang the Conqueror who has managed to squish together a range of time zones into one arena location. Things are made purposely accessible here with no real punishment for death and streamlined controls. Most of the time will be spent running round story based, or open world, environments breaking everything you see and collecting LEGO Studs in order to unlock new characters. For those who haven’t this is a character driven adventure game with a low difficulty bar and aimed at the children’s market. If you’ve ever played a LEGO game developed by Travellers Tales then you’ll know what to expect here as the formula is very much the same. In many way the biggest similarity between the two games is their emphasis on the lower tier Marvel characters and with hundreds of characters to choose from this is a big emphasis.
The first LEGO Marvel Superheroes was released in 2013 but still plays really well with a big open world and loads of Marvel characters, many of which I’d never really heard of before. LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2 is a sequel to one of the better LEGO games, and I can understand why it would reuse the same name, even though it shares no story similarities. In many ways LEGO games are the last of the big budget kids games, a dying breed, and while they attract a lot of flak for being easy or repetitive they are still very popular. Without exception these were all terrible, couple this with the rise of smart phones and the kids market sort self imploded.
In previous console generations publishers would have big releases aimed squarely at the kids market, most of them mainly film tie ins.
