What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
Can play the different characters for new gameplay and very slightly altering to the story, but there are no "choices have consequences" in this game.
There is M+KB support (although a controller is highly advised), and support for both higher resolutions and widescreen (including ultrawide).
While the game does look generally sharper than when it originally released due to higher resolution support, that is about as far as the graphics have improved.
Improving on its predecessor in almost every way, Dark Alliance 2's modern debut showcases idealized couch co-op action RPG gameplay which still holds up, even when you compare to some more modern and bigger budget titles.

I played on steam deck and had a great time.
