Has more bugs than my backyard, but it's a fun co-op game nonetheless.

Fun co op game but too many bugs/glitches. Constantly getting sent back to the start of the game for some reason, having to figure out how to fix it etc. Frustrating.

Basically a copy/paste of the original. It's OK game but only worth it on sale

Recommended Jul 3, 2026
Much improved from the first game, and I still loved most of the first game. Movement feels better somehow, the abilities and upgrades feel better, and it's still pure stealth. This isn't "dishonored" or Splinter cell much as I love those games too. This is more like "Thief" where you can fight, technically, I don't recommend it. So be ready to quick save a lot. But it's a fantastic stealth game and we need more of those.
