Knack II Review

By Rishi Alwani (Sep 5, 2017)
  • Good
  • Skill tree gives more gameplay options
  • Level design makes use of your abilities
  • Co-op mode makes a welcome return
  • Bad
  • Average story
  • Stealth level ruins pacing
  • Some combat sections are a bit boring

Knack 2 is the sequel to the 2013 PS4 launch title, Knack, which was a platforming game similar to the likes of Crash Bandicoot. Despite the influence of one of gaming's most popular marsupials, it fell flat thanks to tedious, repetitive gameplay, shallow level design, and uneven difficulty. Is Knack 2 more of the same, or has Sony learned from its first outing?
