A Kingdom Caught Between Light And Darkness
In Aggelos 2, players take on the role of an Aggelos – one of the highest orders of angels – as the Kingdom of Lumen finds itself under siege.
The Army of Darkness is threatening to overwhelm the Gods, leaving you with little choice but to take on a new shadowy form in order to fight back. That’s where the central hook of Aggelos 2 comes into play.
Your angelic form is more measured and disciplined, while your demon form is built around speed, aggression and dark abilities. Learning when to shift between the two is crucial as you battle enemies, overcome hazards and solve the challenges standing in your way.
Two Forms, Two Worlds
The sequel builds on the retro-inspired 2D exploration of the original game, but expands the experience with two interconnected worlds to explore.
Progress isn’t always about moving directly forward. Players will need to navigate labyrinthine environments, unlock new abilities and return to previously inaccessible areas as their powers grow.
That combination of combat, exploration and platforming should make Aggelos 2 particularly appealing to those who enjoy gradually opening up a larger game world while uncovering new routes and secrets.
Fast Combat Meets Precision Platforming
Aggelos 2 promises plenty of action, but success will require more than simply attacking everything in sight. Combat is designed to be fast and demanding, while the platforming puts an emphasis on timing and precision.
With formidable enemies, deadly obstacles and puzzles spread across both realms, players will need to get comfortable with both the angelic and demonic sides of their character.
The difference between the two forms means there’s another layer to consider too. Choosing the right approach for the situation could be just as important as quick reactions.
Time To Embrace Both Sides
Aggelos 2 brings together a colourful retro-inspired presentation with a much darker battle at its centre. With two forms to master, two worlds to explore and plenty of combat and platforming challenges waiting ahead, there’s a lot for action fans to get stuck into.
Aggelos 2 is available now on Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PC, PlayStation and Nintendo Switch. It costs £16.99 on the Xbox Store and comes with Xbox Play Anywhere support.
The Kingdom of Lumen needs a hero. It just might take both an angel and a demon to save it.
