Buy Blackguards 2 for Playstation

7 / 10

One of the delights of settling down to a turn-based tactical RPG is poking around to understand how its systems combine and then utilising those systems in imaginative and tactically satisfying ways. In this regard, Blackguards 2 delivers. Eventually. The writing and presentation are serviceable rather than spectacular but there's a decent level of scope for customisation and engaging combat if you can push past its trudging opening hours. Cassia and co's deep-seated issues and baggage make them an entertaining bunch and while they won't set your world alight, they eventually prove capable of providing many hours of surprisingly amiable companionship.

Blackguards 2 removes much of the chaff from the original game, but you'll still need some patience.

Sinister protagonists and smart tactical combat make Blackguards 2 a compelling exercise in evil.
