With the Fig funding and acquisition of Microsoft, were here now in 2021 to seePsychonauts 2out and available. The return of Raz, it seems, didn’t disappoint.Psychonauts 2is Destructoids pick Best Xbox Game of 2021. We saw a lot of platformer influence in the year 2021. Mario experimented with some new concepts while putting onBowsers Fury, and while Ratchet and Clank took on a new, 5-Shape-exclusive adventure, and games like the Ill’s TwoSeemed to borrow influences from the days of PS2 character-platformers.Psychonauts 2 seems to be returning to the past. In the second review of Psychonauts 2, Zoey says that platformer, story and exploration is more elaborative than its predecessor. Its dives in the psyche still been what you might expect from the Psychonauts, yetPsychonauts 2ventures deeper into the philosophy of mental health and the backstory of his family. Couple inPsychonauts possess a keen eye for brain-wisting, mind-twisting visuals and level design that is hard to find anywhere else. It’s not easy to understand why Psychonauts 2left behind a dull mark on the Destructoid crew. I think it’s just that that recognition of a new step in Double Fines’s tradition, however. The studio behind some popular games has survived. With the help of a publisher like Microsoft, the studio created a newPsychonautsthat somehow lived up the original. Now, what it is in the future for an adventure with the crew looks like it’s going to be a long time. The Xbox lineup of 2021 had good range. There’s a green-suited supersoldier who sadly slowed down for eligibility. TheHorizonFestival’s many cars and the avalanche of cars has destroyed many vehicles. There are so many Game Pass games. YetPsychonauts 2 merges clever platforming, mind-bending levels, and story-loving into one package that we didn’t seem to like to escape from our heads. Congrats Psychonauts 2 our best game of 2021.
