As I mentioned in my previous review, the setting of the game has really pigeon-holed Deck 13 into environments that are difficult to make feel different. Sure locales are more varied, and the color palettes are a bit more unique, but the it’s hard to make broken buildings and destroyed concrete look much different from other broken buildings and destroyed concrete. While I’m much more satisfied with the setting of the game in the sequel, there is still lots of room for improvement.

This is something I really enjoyed, and did improve the overall experience.

The world, ironically, feels more alive than ever and more like a “role playing game” than The Surge 1. There is definite improvement here, not only in terms of the variation of locales and location, which is something Deck 13 was criticized for in the first installment, but also in characters and the general story of the game. Your mission? To find the other survivor, save her, and the world…No problem right? There were only two survivors of that Plane crash, and you are one of them. Not a single person hasn’t been affected by the mistakes of CREO, mistakes that some are trying to reverse.Ī mysterious and unexpected plane crash changed everything, and now Nano creatures have been seen around the city, preying on its populace. Seeking refuge, many are turned away because of a cure-less Nano Virus that has taken the lives of countless citizens.

The Surge 2 takes place after the events of its predecessor, humans of earth are on the brink of extinction, and those that remain gather in a place called Jericho City.
