Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
134 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The core gameplay has been expanded, the fights require a bit more of "analyze the opponent and choose the best strategy" compared to the first game, since there are more techniques and path available, both for you to experiment and for your opponents to kick your ass (since sometimes they will use special combat styles).
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
108 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The tone of the game has more comedy than the first one, and a lot more dialogue.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
26 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I was initially disappointed with the inability to adjust the speed of fights but with the sequel's combat system, it makes sense.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
13 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Punch Club 2: Fast Forward builds on the foundation of its predecessor by delivering a polished mix of sports management, RPG progression, and narrative-driven gameplay with a fresh coat of modern graphics and streamlined mechanics.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
11 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The soundtrack, artwork, and animations were a significant upgrade from PC1 and complimented the new setting well.
