“[b]Something is off about Ghostrunner 2 that I cannot recommend it to those who enjoyed the first. It has great improvements over the original with smoother gameplay & interactive boss encounters but it also lacks the…”
“Not exatcly fun, not exactly story engaging, but incredibly engaging and makes you feel like you have the exaggerated swagger of John Ghostrunner. Around 7 hours of story plus challenges and collectibles. Also i got…”
“Great game. I loved GR1 and this is a nice continuation. Even though I liked the second part of the game less, it keeps me entertained and even last level introduces new gimmicks that feel intuitive to use and fun.…”

“Ghostrunner 2 is a good sequel. It acts as a direct story continuation from the first game, but makes some interesting narrative turns while still flowing logically from the plot of the first. Initially I felt like the…”
“Beautiful storyline, just amazing... 100/10 make a third game.”
“This is the best game I ever had in my life the movement is amazing and the story is great maybe some people don’t like it but I really enjoyed I know i will not play a game like this in the future thanks guys for the…”

“If you played the first game or you are fan of fast paced first person games, look no further. This cyberpunk slasher have you covered. Good: Gameplay is pretty tight. No matter if it's slashing, parkour or driving a…”
“还行,有些怪比一代稍微难处理一点,就是这个收集物有点多。跑酷技巧基本跟一代是一样的。总体还不错,有打折可以买,原价感觉不值”
“Ghostrunner 2 is not a perfect sequel, and sadly that is its Achilles heel. The first game was near perfection in its genre, and while Ghostrunner 2 improves on some areas where the first game fell short in hindsight,…”

“Really enjoyed the first game and expected the same experience with this one. The story was alright but the movement felt much worse.”
“I have played it on my Xbox Series S and i can say, this is one of the best ninja game franchises i've ever tried, good parkour, good combat and good visuals.”
“"HEY NERD" "HEY FART BREATH" wtf is this? Compared to GR1, the story and pacing is trash, gameplay is softened, music is mid. Only the environment artists did a great job imo. I'd rather play GR1 for the 10th time than…”

“Great sequel that, much like the first, done a lot of things really well and a few things not so well. Getting the story and characters out the way, didn't really care much for it. Parkour and combat is generally more…”

“You'd think after all this time they would have been able to make this game not be such a stuttering, unoptimized, mess. Wish i could recommend it because of how much I love the first one, but I simply can't. What's…”

“Really fun game. Other than the ♥♥♥♥♥♥ outside sections. Optimizitation is garbage too. Buy it if its 80% off. Which it often is. Not worth full price imo”

“It was mostly good. The game suffered from stability issues/slight performance hickups for me. The first game was definitely better. There some level of fluidity the games loses as well as a feeling of skill that aren't there anymore. The riding missions were fun but sometimes…”

— a player, Steam review · 18 hrs played“The first game was a gem. Fast-paced non-stop action with great soundtrack. The sequel somehow got rid of all that and bloated the game with things that nobody asked for. Also, it's still unoptimized even after all these years. Looks bad and runs bad.”
