Soul Hackers 2 reviewed by Cameron Hawkins on Xbox Series X, also available on PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and Xbox One.

Soul Hackers 2 is a streamlined Atlus JRPG, serving as a great entry point for anyone new to the genre or the developer's other games like Persona or Tokyo Mirage Sessions. The combat and dungeon delving are entertaining, if fairly familiar, and the charming cast of characters stay interesting all the way through its roughly 60-hour campaign. But a disappointing lack of creativity in its battle systems and a fairly shallow overarching story mean this newly resurrected series will need to do more if it wants to set itself apart amongst Atlus’ best.
