Critic Reviews
- Overall, Freedom Planet 2 is an excellent (though imperfect) love letter to Japanese ’90s style platformers, and anyone who enjoys either old-school design or platforming in general will find it worthwhile thanks to solid mechanics, plenty of content and strong replayability via the different characters available. Maybe skip the story, but don’t miss it.
GC Staff · Jun 09, 2024 Reviewed on PS4Read full review - Having never played the original, I can say that I enjoyed Freedom Planet 2 even if the combat annoyed me at times. The Sonic like speedy traversal of each level was a joy to complete, the real issues only crept up when combat was needed. While it was nice to have some advanced moves, given how fast FP2 plays; the combat kind of felt out of place. Floaty combat with the high speed makes the boss battles frustrating; If people can get around that, they will find that Freedom Planet 2 is a peek into Sega’s heyday, with a cheesy story and heroes that ‘gotta go fast’ if you are in the need for some Genesis vibes, take a trip to Freedom Planet 2.
Terrence Johnson · May 16, 2024 Reviewed on Series X|SRead full review - Freedom Planet 2 suffers from many of the same problems that plagued the original game, with the additional problem of having way too much combat, but remains a delightful speed platformer at its core and is worth running through for any fans of the genre.
David Flynn · Apr 22, 2024 Reviewed on PS5Read full review - Freedom Planet 2 es el ejemplo perfecto del más y mejor; si bien la primera parte se destapó como un notable título de plataformas y acción de corte clásico, esta secuela logra pulir y mejorar varios aspectos tanto de su jugabilidad como de su puesta en escena, especialmente por contar con una tecnología superior a nivel de motor. El juego viene cargado de contenido -incluso demasiado por ciertas vaivenes en el ritmo de desarrollo de su aventura-, cuatro personajes diferentes con sus propias habilidades, modos extra para los jugadores más experimentados y una historia competente que sabe jugar sus cartas tanto por su temática como por su peculiar sentido del humor. Un título que no defraudará a aquellos que busquen experiencias al estilo Sonic retro con una jugabilidad exigente que no renuncia a las tendencias actuales.
Cristian Ciuraneta · Apr 17, 2024 Reviewed on PS5Read full review - Freedom Planet 2 takes everything Freedom Planet did right and does it better, while also making sure to improve on the things it didn’t do well. It’s still not a perfect game by any means, and it can’t quite escape the orbit of Sonic the Hedgehog. But maybe it doesn’t have to? Maybe it isn’t meant to? Perhaps it’s just fine if it’s a really great riff on Sonic‘s gameplay. It knows what it wants to be and executes on that amazingly well. If you like 2D platformers, you’ll want to put this game on your shopping list.
Shaun Musgrave · Apr 15, 2024 Reviewed on SwitchRead full review - Freedom Planet 2 takes everything great about the first game, adds a bit of polish and some extra mechanics, and gives us an absolute beast of a game. I cannot praise it enough, it’s just brilliant fun!
Gary “Dominoid” Sheppard · Apr 11, 2024 Reviewed on SwitchRead full review - A fast-paced 2D platformer, Sonic the Hedgehog fans are likely to appreciate Freedom Planet 2 even though its combat is a bit scrappy and its story often gets in the way of its action.
Richard Seagrave · Apr 10, 2024 Reviewed on PS5Read full review - One of the best Sonic The Hedgehog games never made, although the level design and combat isn’t quite up to the standards of Sega’s best.
GameCentral · Apr 10, 2024 Reviewed on SwitchRead full review - Freedom Planet 2 is an enjoyable, creative, and pretty release overall. With a bit more polish and fleshing out in the writing, I feel it could be a truly amazing game. But as is, it’s definitely more expanded than the more simplistic first title.
Kira C · Apr 05, 2024 Reviewed on SwitchRead full review - Freedom Planet 2 feels like the first game with a bigger budget, expanding on many of the key mechanics it employs from its Sonic roots while crafting a unique identity with its complex levels and refreshingly unique enemy and boss design.
