One of my favorite things about the game was how the world felt truly alive. Improvements were also made to the jet pack, giving you the ability to really fly instead of just hovering. The ease of traversal comes in handy when you are running low on potions and other resources and need to get back to town. The best part is that you don’t have to wait in loading screens as you are able to seamlessly travel across the entire map, even when using the fast travel teleporters you find while out exploring. You can still walk through lush green forested areas and across snow capped mountains. While the dark Elex is definitely taking a toll on the wildlife, the world is still beautiful. The vintage aesthetic adds a real charm to the game and I often find myself just admiring the vistas and marveling at the creatures the team at Piranha Bytes have created (there’s literally a monster called a Critter). The world of Magalan is truly a spectacle. Some may even approach you about concerns they have, taking you out on side missions to help you earn a little more experience points and maybe even grow your relationship with the individual. This is also where those you have recruited will stay, awaiting your next orders and making preparations of their own.
From here you will be able to craft most of your upgrades, conduct research on dark Elex, and launch major operations, all the while building up your ragtag group of comrades in arms. Right away you make an unexpected ally, honestly the last person you would expect to be pairing up with in this new fight, and set up a base of operations at the Bastion. You will have to be careful as you navigate through forests, across rivers and streams, and over mountainous landscapes. As is typical of their games, the world is very unforgiving, and monsters can easily take you out in a single shot. However, Piranha Bytes doesn’t make this easy for you. Your gear and possessions were destroyed in the initial invasion so you have to build up your arsenal again in order to defend yourself.
And, as Jax, you are also affected, trying to maintain control of your own sanity and fighting against your own decline.Īgainst what appears to be insurmountable odds, you are tasked with rebuilding a broken world, one that is heavily divided not only by the previous conflict, but also by varying ideals across the factions. The Skyands have come, falling from the sky, and are unleashing dark Elex on Magalan, threatening all life. That is until a meteor destroys the hut he’s been living in with a thunderous crash and Jax is thrust once again into a war for survival. After taking down the Hybrid, Jax goes into isolation, shirking his responsibilities and shutting out the world, including his own family. It will be up to you to restore the balance and unite everyone against this common enemy before all life is extinguished.Įlex II picks up six years after the events of the first game, though for some the memories remain fresh. In this action-packed sequel, you will need to stay on your toes – and try to focus, because every decision you make will have an effect on how it all ends.
Return to Magalan in this open world post-apocalyptic RPG from developer Piranha Bytes, the team behind the Gothic and Risen games. Jax is back and an all-new very powerful threat has emerged in Elex II.
