"The 2D high speed, old-school style side-scrolling action that you remember from Azure Striker Gunvolt is back! In this game, Gunvolt's rival Copen from the first installment returns to the fray as a playable character!"

About the story

"It is the near future, and a new population of people known as "adepts" are being born with supernatural abilities known as "septima." Gunvolt, having put a stop to the Sumeragi Group's plan to control all the world's adepts known as the "Diva Project", has begun to heal both his body and mind from the deep wounds caused by that incident.... However, the passage of time does not always allow warriors scarred by battle to truely relax. Enter "Eden", a group of superpowerful adepts from all corners of the globe. Now, Gunvolt and Copen must stand up and face a new threat."

‎Azure Striker GUNVOLT 2 is a game that while it is not the best we could have had, it does improve many things from the original and adds new elements to the game that are very interesting to let escape play this sequel. A worthy sequel to a worthy tribute.‎

Azure Striker Gunvolt 2 is fast, flashy fun that fans of 2D action platformers will almost certainly enjoy. Just make sure you play the first game, otherwise, you'll likely be totally lost.

All of the traditional gameplay mechanics from AZS1 (the OG, or vanilla Azure Striker title) are back, and Gunvolt is every bit the familiar character we remember. The crafting, the Prevasion, the Anthem, the uber skills, the different tagging bullets, they are all just as you left them, and they will be both every bit as comfortable and powerful as you need or want them to be, depending on your opt-in handicap preferences.

Azure Striker Gunvolt 2 is an amazingly well crafted action platformer, it’s just not a well written one. Spirit art is amazing, and game-play is fun once you struggle to figure it out what does what. This could have been an amazing game if they took the time to explain major elements of how it works and as well as the story.
