What is Axiom Verge 2?

You play as Indra in a single-player, side-scrolling action-adventure, searching for her missing daughter in an alternate Earth-like world. You explore ancient technological ruins, hack machines, fight monsters, and hunt for hidden items and upgrades. A remote drone lets you enter the Breach, a connected parallel reality.

For you if...

  • +you enjoy uncovering science-fiction lore about a fallen civilization
  • +you prefer melee-focused action over collecting an arsenal of guns

Not for you if...

  • −you expect a direct continuation of the original protagonist's story
