In February 2018, the developers of The Surge (Deck13, the same group responsible for the 2014 RPG, Lords of the Fallen) announced that they are releasing a sequel to their hack and slash, Dark Souls-esque game, and gamers everywhere were like, "dope." The Surge 2, while not the phenomenon that Dark Souls was, still got some pretty good reviews, and caught the second wave of DS players hungry for more brutal combat. Finally, courtesy of IGN, we've got a short video, only about 3 minutes long, but it's pretty action-packed, and includes a mini-boss battle. There is no real set-up, just pure, continuous gameplay.
The video is set in a green, outdoorsy level, and the player battles a boss-robot that looks pissed, especially when it's shooting lasers that are cutting a swath through the trees and attacking the player with newer finishing moves, and smashing at him with an energy shield. I like that the fight doesn't take place in an arena, and once or twice the player looks like he's trying to retreat, but the robot is pretty damn fast. Plus, that laser is cutting through everything. Where the hell are you gonna go?
Take a look a the video below, The Surge 2 should be out sometime tin 2019.
