Even a dulled blade can still cut deep.
Ever since I saw the enigmatic, cyborg ninja Grey Fox from Hideo Kojima`s 1998 PlayStation classic, Metal Gear Solid, I`ve held an admiration towards ninjas in video games. Titles such as Metal Gear Rising, Sekiro, Ninja Gaiden, and many more have allowed us to experience the romanticized yet brutal ninja fantasy. The same goes for Aragami, and now a sequel has landed, on track to launch on Sept. 17 for console and PC.
When Lince Works` first Aragami debuted in 2016, it received critical acclaim for its polished stealth gameplay, striking visuals, and a simple but compelling narrative. We`ve now played through its sequel, getting a grasp on whether Aragami 2 will make the killing blow, or linger forever in its predecessor`s shadow.
