Part of what makes The Surge 2 so fun and frustrating is how many extremely random secrets there are. It isn't enough to find things, locate enemies or really go above and beyond because so many things are tied to the randomness of the experience. This is especially true for drones, as there are a...
Similar to The Surge 2's Iron Maus trophy, Reverse Engineering is difficult because it is either a little glitchy or more complicated than meets the eye. To get the trophy you don't need to obtain the armor, do a fancy trick, utilize a special drone, perform a finishing move or any of that...
Despite Archangel Eli being one of the most interesting and creative bosses in The Surge 2, he comes at a time where it’s possible to create a build that removes his difficulty entirely. Since this is the last fight and doesn’t offer much beyond a conclusion to the story, I suggest just...
Arguably the worst part of The Surge was the quest structure. The choices or chain of events didn't always make the most sense and a lot of people accidentally did the wrong things. This quest is a fantastic example of why this is so bad and it's a shame The Surge 2 decided to go with it. With...
The Surge was notorious for convoluted quests, confusing tasks and countless ways to ruin your run. But, though all the nonsense, there was only one task that altered your ending. The Surge 2 adding far more quests, keeping it just as confusing and trying to improve the overall experience, this...
Despite claiming a number of bosses in The Surge 2 are glorified enemies, both H.A.R.O.L.D and Goddess Helena are literally just bigger versions of the Bloodhound Robot and Gaia Statue with a couple of new moves. And, as a result of them being rather lazy, they have the exact same weaknesses. ...
After some fairly simple bosses, The Surge 2 changes things up with Delver. This fight is a weird mix of really simple and fairly annoying. Nothing about the fight itself is hard, it just has a lot of times the flow can work against you and stamina use becomes a major issue. Still, it isn’t that...
There was no boss in The Surge 2 that gave me more trouble than Matriarch Celeste. She, like her minions, can shock you and abuse the same tactics I used to dominate everything, with the added bonus of being entirely tactic based. Sadly, this is due to odd AI over anything else but this means it...
For the most part, Major General Ezra Shields is fairly easy with the right tactic and extremely difficult with the wrong one. This is largely due to the fight playing more into weird tactics than anything else. Thankfully, this makes it one of the easiest to explain fights in The Surge 2, plus...
Even if Warden Garcia is the first boss in The Surge 2, Little John is the first real one. In a lot of ways, he is a direct copy of Firebug from The Surge, except Little John is almost entirely technique. This can make the fight extremely difficult, as certain small choices can turn this fight...
Captain Cervantes is kind of a joke boss in The Surge 2. He isn’t much more than a standard enemy, outside of having a lot more health and one annoying gimmick. However, with the right build and weapons, he is actually pretty easy to overcome. Editor’s Note: This guide does not include...
When it comes to tricky games like The Surge 2, there is a lot to take in and plenty of mistakes are made. In my case, I fought one of the bosses multiple different times, noted I thought I was doing it wrong and ultimately came to discover that was the case. Other times simply trying something...
Even if Warden Garcia is one of the simplest bosses in The Surge 2, it happens relatively quickly. Moments after learning the combat system you’re asked to defeat this huge boss and it’s the type of enemy that is a huge contrast to how the experience thus far. Thankfully, this boss is really...
A lot of people compared The Surge to the Soulsborne games. It was both a fair and unfair assessment, as it’s clear it wanted to be something similar, yet did a lot to make it different. Many of the complaints were actually how it differed, showing a lack of appreciation for its own unique spin....
Now that we're at the second month following the removal of PlayStation 3 and Vita titles, we can better gauge what to expect from the program going forward. While there is no denying the games are at a slightly higher quality, at least in terms of original MSRP, it does not bode well for the...
The idea of making A Walk in the Park Warren’s last stand was an inspired choice. It was no secret he loved Ironmaus and Creo World filled in enough to close out his story. With development of The Surge 2 well on it’s way, the announcement of The Good, The Bad and The Augmented came as quite...
Deck13 Interactive and Focus Home Interactive revealed today that The Surge will be getting a new expansion, The Good, the Bad, and the Augmented, on October 2. The upcoming expansion will take fans to an old and abandoned Quality Assurance Lab created to push CREO's tech to the limit. Fans will...
Typically when people think of E3, they think of the chance to experience something before the vast majority of players. This is true on a conceptual level, though often times experience means play, which isn't always the case. When I got to see The Surge 2, it wasn't a hands on demo, as much as an...
Every now and then someone makes a mistake and something interesting happens. In this case, it seems The Surge: Complete Edition, which is suppose to be on sale for $20.41, is actually free if you happen to be a NA PlayStation Plus member. No word on how long this will last but this is the...
One of the advantages of DLC is to correct problems and leave a second final impression. With The Surge suffering from a bland story, many users finding it hard to figure out how to progress and a lackluster world to explore, there was plenty to improve. Moving the story to an amusement park...
Focus Home Interactive announced today that the expansion, 'A Walk in the Park' for The Surge will launch for PS4, Xbox One, and PC on December 5. The expansion is said to launch alongside The Surge: Complete Edition, which includes the full game and all DLCs released. Here's an overview of...
Among the other Xbox One games that received its enhancements today for the Xbox One X, the developer of the critically-acclaimed The Surge announced today that an enhancement for the game is now available as well. According to the game's official Twitter page, the enhanced The Surge will offer...
Arguably one of the most stressful things in The Surge, is grinding for scrap. It isn't because enemies are strong or how long it takes, but rather, how easy it is to end up on square one. Without banking scraps you could see hours of work go down the drain, but this glitch takes the hassle out...
Part of the appeal to a soulsborne-esque game is all the subtitle things that can greatly improve your skills. Be it shortcuts, secret attacks, useful mechanics or something else, The Surge is filled with them. Since this can be overwhelming at first, here are some tips to make your experience...
