Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number Critic Reviews

Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number is more of the same, but that's not a bad thing if that's all you want out of it.

In almost every way, Hotline Miami 2 is a marked improvement on an already tremendous formula. This is a game that had me pumping my fists and laughing with joy throughout my time with it, and I was left despondent by the time it drew to a close.

Twitch-based gameplay at its finest, with some of the best music ever featured in a game. Wrong Number ramps everything up to varying degrees of success.

Hotlime Miami 2: Wrong Number offers what is needed if you loved the first episode. Incorrect, violent, crazy and extremely difficult. Not suitable for all kind of gamers, but perfect for you if you are looking for a sweet frustrating experience.

Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number is purposely discomforting, hypnotically visceral. It’s one of the best games released so far this year.

Even if its core gameplay and visuals look too similar to the first episode, Hotline Miami 2 is exactly what we could expect: a harder, better, faster, stronger chapter to the series, that feels more polished in terms of structure, violence, soundtrack and global madness. A generous, violent, and hypnotizing fun experience that action game fans should not miss, as it will surely give them the pain they want to feel.

Hotline Miami 2 may not be as perfect as its precursor, but the mechanics is still one of the best in the genre. Besides, the soundtrack is probably worth the price of its own.

It's still as violent as ever before and best of all, it's still incredibly fun.

Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number is a game so savage that it can be unpalatable to certain players. But for those who enjoy the thrill of overcoming difficult combat where a single mistake can be your undoing, I can’t think of a lot out there that’s better.

This is not merely a sequel worth playing, it’s one worth consuming again and again until its every secret has been revealed.

Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number is a great game and a worthy sequel. It’s more confident in its style, storytelling ability, and level design than the first game.

More and almost always better. More characters, more game mechanics and a luxury soundtrack are the pros of Hotline Miami 2. Unfortunately, the plot slightly darkens a game of exquisite mechanics.

You will find, here, more of that unexplainable experience Hotline Miami is. We miss meaningful innovations, but it's a great game you have to try, and, if you liked the first one, you cannot miss it.

Hotline Miami 2 may look like its predecessor, but it’s a completely different beast.

Though it is not for the faint of heart, Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number provides thrills at the occasional and momentary cost of your sanity. Though you’ll likely find yourself screaming at your screen on a regular basis, you’re equally as likely to find yourself eagerly loading the next level.

Yes! Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number is more of the same, but we love it.

We could praise the gameplay, art direction, and soundtrack, one by one, but the truth is that they literally become one. They become Hotline Miami. It's not a perfect game (and it can be pretty difficult at times), but its style is so hypnotic and deep you won't forget it anytime soon.

More varied than its predecessor, it's unique, fast and addicting. On top of that, it adds new layers to the peculiar narration, making it way more interesting.

Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number is a great sequel. It innovates just enough to feel fresh but, unfortunately, takes a bit of player freedom away through its fixed characters.

A story David Lynch would be proud of, great music, and twitch-action gameplay are even more reasons to pick this up and give it a shot.
