Miraculously, it does so in a manner that somehow never feels disjointed. Much like its predecessor, Elex II’s greatest strength lies within its world-building and ability to deliver quests that interlink and overlap in a non-linear fashion. Piranha Bytes has done an excellent job of frontloading the first chapter with dialogue and exposition that does stellar work in joining the dots for anyone who hasn’t had the opportunity to play through Elex. Having said all that, I don’t think playing the predecessor is absolutely necessary to enjoy Elex II. Adams, to aid in setting up the 6 th Power, a new super faction with the ultimate goal of helping defend Magalan from this fresh new threat.Īdmittedly, being a direct sequel, Elex II comes with a lot of baggage in the form of the backstories and events that factions and characters from the first game bring with them on this new adventure. The chain of events this new invasion sets off means Jax will have to swallow his pride in teaming up with antagonist from the original game, Dr. This ominous object, as it turns out, is a wormhole through which the Skyands, the new threat in Elex II, make their move on Magalan, terraforming its lands and infecting its inhabitants in what appears to be a hostile takeover. We again take control of former Alb, Jax, who has spent his time since the first game warning the civilians of Magalan of the danger posed by a strange object that appeared in the sky following the defeat of the Hybrid in the original game. Set after the conflict with the Albs and the Hybrids in the original Elex, Elex II sees players return to the world of Magalan. It was much to my delight then when I found out that Elex II was in development, and thankfully, it delivers in providing another slice of ambitious, deep, and of course, janky western RPG action. The original Elex was no exception to this rule, and yet, it turned out to be perhaps my favorite title yet from the German studio. Janky, often bug-ridden, and always slightly clumsy feeling, what Piranha Bytes games lacked in polish they always made up for with an abundance of heart, soul, and ambition. Whilst never the most polished or technically sound of experiences, I’ve always had a soft spot for Piranha Bytes’ work.
