Axiom Verge 2 arrives on PlayStation this summer

Launched for the first time in 2015, Indie Metroidvania Axiom Verge experienced a huge success during her life. Developed by a man, Tom Happ, Axiom Verge won prizes even before his exit, winning at the Best in Show prices of Gamespot and IGN at E3 2014. Now we are about to see the exit of his Suite very awaited, Axiom Verge 2 - hoping it will hold the shot.

In an interview for the PlayStation blog, Tom Happ described Axiom Verge's Main Frame, Tone and Character 2. The interview is accompanied by a small revelation on the original - the history of the main character, trace, was supposed to be 1. Small part of an epic at the level of the universe that should take place over a thousand years - and 7 to 8 games. This means that AXIOM VERGE 2 will take a radical turning point compared to the original, leaving this story aside for the moment in favor of a brand new character. The protagonist of Axiom Verge 2 is Indra, a mysterious genius of technology that finds himself lost on another land following an antarctic expedition.

The trip of Indra will be quite different from that of trace - it does not have access to the same level of technology as the protagonist of Axiom Verge, but must rather rely on a simple draw to get closer to his enemies and the to tear. As a technology engineering, it will also be able to hack enemy systems.

In the interview, HAPP comments the reception of the original game and how he modified Axiom Verge 2 in response: "_bian that I try to put my blinders compared to the opinions of others on my games and to remain faithful to my vision of Origin, a common theme came out when I watched people play. There were people who wanted the game to be much more difficult, and there were those who wanted it easier. "

In order to handle this, Axiom Verge 2 will have a number of ways to customize difficulty settings - not only easy, medium and difficult. The amount of damage inflicted on and by enemies can be customized, and all the bosses of the game will be optional.

Axiom Verge 2 comes out this summer on Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 4 - Although a PlayStation 5 version is also in preparation, it is not yet certain that it is ready for the launch of the game.
