Tech Analysis: Gravity Rush 2

Eurogamer: We're just three weeks into 2017 and already we have a brand-new PS4 platform exclusive in the form of Gravity Rush 2 - Sony Japan's physics defying action game. With the original release created with PlayStation Vita in mind, we were excited to see what the development team could achieve on much more powerful hardware. The opportunity to push environment complexity and interactions through the roof offers a huge amount of potential, so we were eager to check that out - and to put the PS4 Pro features through their paces.

"In the end, it's great to see a new game out of Sony's Japanese studio with such impressive visuals and technical performance. It's a unique, beautiful game that feels quite unlike anything else out there. If you're looking for something a little different, be sure to give it a try."

Well that^ says it all.

Also this one:

"The effect is enhanced by the inclusion of robust post-processing that includes high quality per-object motion blur. Every motion is accentuated by the effect lending weight to the action in a big way. The motion blur also helps the game appear smoother despite the frame-rate cap of 30fps. When these two techniques come together, the results are impressive - possibly the best 30fps implementation we can expect."

I remember when I played the demo, it still felt natural even though the remaster of the first game was 60fps.

I'm looking forward to playing it this Friday :)

Underrated PlayStation JRPG Gem Goes 50% Off In New Sale

Gravity Rush 2, a highly rated PlayStation exclusive, is currently available to purchase at $9.99 on the official PS Store.

Gravity Rush would be an amazing series to be reborn on PSVR2. (sure to make the motion sick squeamish! haha) Anyone who has never played them should pick these games up though, they were really fun, unique/wild gameplay w a lot of style. My only complaint is the Part 2 has a really slow start, but it picks up.

shinoff2183481d ago

I remember when part 2 came out. Part 1 physical copy worth went through the roof.

OtterX481d ago

Nice. I still have have my Gravity Rush physical copy for Vita, but I only owned Remastered + 2 digitally. Wish I had gone physical though.

jznrpg481d ago

I own all of the games physically for Vita and PS4.

Gravity Rush in VR would most likely kill someone lolz. GR2 and the first Mirrors Edge are the only games I've played where I've gotten horrible motion sickness but just couldn't stop playing em. Really hope that motion capture clip really is a movie cause the series deserves more attention.

OtterX481d ago

Ha, yea it would be a bit like Sairento VR (constant 1st person flipping combat), mixed with Detached VR (360 space thrusters) with all comfort settings off, if you've ever played either of those! XD

Eidolon480d ago

GR1/2 would need quite the overhaul to work in VR. If they do make one from the ground up it definitely would work and couldn't be as motionly crazy as some games I've played on the Quest 2, like that Grapple game.

jznrpg481d ago

Loved the first one Vita and second on PS4. Most VR games I’m fine but the nature of Gravity Rush I am not sure I could handle it or not as it may make me feel sick to my stomach. I’d give it a try at least

GoodGuy09481d ago

Gravity rush 1 I really enjoyed but for some odd reason I couldn't as much with the sequel. It was a good game but the controls were very clunky and a game like that just really needs a higher framerate with how precise you need to be. Also everyone is for some reason just absolutely rude towards Kat which got me too annoyed lol.

The visuals and art style were amazing though. If they were to ever make a sequel, you fix these problems, then GR would be great games.

blackblades481d ago (Edited 481d ago )

I enjoyed and play the 1st one on vita, i enjoyed there. Then I played the remaster with dlc when it came out. Gravity rush 2 I bought long time ago on ps4 but never got into it. I didnt even make it to 1st quarter of it. Its just what it is, I'll try to get back on to it sooner or later.

Rebel_Scum481d ago

More an adventure game than a JRPG tbh

jznrpg481d ago

Second game felt more rpgish but I agree they are more adventure than rpg

Eidolon480d ago

Adventure games are more narrative. Life is Strange, etc... This is Action-Adventure, can even say slightly plaformer, some RPG elements, but of course they will call it JRPG(buzz word) to sell.

DefaultComment481d ago

Gravity rush should be on PC by now. At least that will get tose numbers to raise a little.

DarXyde481d ago

The stupidity of exputer calling Gravity Rush 2 a JRPG aside...If y'all haven't bought the game yet, please do. It's such a great, charming game.

I have been absolutely gutted at the idea that there won't be a Gravity Rush 3, and I genuinely hope people give it a fair shake.

Even After 7 Years, Gravity Rush 2 Is A Beautiful Game That Deserves PC Exposure

It's been 7 years since the mystifying Gravity Rush 2; if Sony plans to put obscure exclusives on PC, it's the very definition of underrated.

Skuletor507d ago

A Gravity Rush 2 port would be cool but I'm not sure how many people will be interested in buying a sequel to a game they haven't played before, though it worked for The Uncharted Legacy Collection so who knows? A Bloodborne port should definitely happen first though, the fact the game never even got a PS4 Pro patch is suspicious.
