Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 Review | PixelPerfectGaming

Lords of Shadow 2 shines the most when it panders to the Castlevania fan base. The castle sequences are abundant and contain a healthy does of action and platforming. The combat is rock-solid as you battle flesh-eating beasts, giants wielding war hammers, and spear-wielding harpies. Bosses like Medusa make their return (in rare form I might add) and they are challenging to say the very least. In spectacular fashion, some bosses require you to climb onto their massive bodies to gouge out their eyes and tear out their tongues to gain the advantage. Its a bloody affair that only a Castlevania game can deliver. And while the stealth sequences are LOS 2s Achilles heel, the aforementioned castle sequences make up for it.
