Unfortunately, one of the bosses is only an enhanced version of a few enemies you’ve fought before, adding in a heavy-hitting heavy attack that will take you out almost instantly if an attack is landed. The ship is swarming with CAIN’s forces and for you to even get through them, you need their weapons, the armor they will provide you, and the ability to learn every single one of their tactics before they begin to rapidly take you out. There are even a few moments of respite among the chaos. You’ll find moments where you have to fend off wave after wave of enemies, having little time to recover, catch your breath, and prepare for the next round to start. The Surge 2: The Kraken is a very shortlived experience, but for some, it might be longer due to the difficulty spikes that randomly appear throughout its duration. ![]() Unfortunately, The Kraken only delivers on 2 of those very aspects, which are the prior two. When it comes to DLC, I’ve always looked at games like Dark Souls and Bloodborne in what I hope to expect things like detail, a bit of story, challenge, and quite a bit of duration. The Surge 2: The Kraken DLC offers a lot of challenges which can be overwhelmingly hard We saw it come in the form of challenges in The Good, The Bad, and the Augmented. Sounds familiar, right? Well, it should, this isn’t the first time The Surge has done this. named CAIN had begun taking over, having gained sentience and sent its horde out across the Krakow, killing any human on board. Krakow, you’ll find that humanity had found a home on the ship they once called home, one where an A.I. Krakow, which let me tell you, is actually harder than it sounds as the difficulty in the base game takes a massive jump at this very point in time. The Kraken itself will require players to hid the midway point in the campaign itself, hitting a point of no return and then hoofing it across Jericho City once again, which will ultimately lead them to the V.B.S. But there are a few things I want to discuss here: Deck13 knows how to do DLC and make some amazing set pieces, but, what they aren’t good at doing is making it last more than a couple of hours altogether or make it feel as if it actually matters. When it comes to DLC’s, The Surge 2: The Kraken is no exception to how long it will be around, what kind of content to expect or if it’s going to be a moderately hard experience for newcomers and veterans alike. The Kraken opens up an entirely new area half-way through the game There’s a good reason why too: Spoilers my dear friends. Now, you might be wondering: Why two separate reviews? Well, it’s because of review score aggregation sites, but not just that, but because The Kraken is its own little slice of the bigger pie that deserves a bit of talking about what we couldn’t do in our massive review of the base game itself. Deck13 has somehow continued to win me over time and time again, which to some, might be a bit of a surprise with how much flak I gave the game in its earlier stages as stated in our review of The Surge 2. Well, maybe not my heart, but my gaming library and my top games of all time to play. When it comes to The Surge 2, I’ve got a special place for it in my heart. ![]() Performance issues remain and absolutely take away from the experience Enemies can be excruciatingly overwhelming ![]() Difficulty scaling may be a bit much for some as the difficulty itself is all over the place +Delivers a narrative experience that shows a wider look at the effect of The Surge ![]() +The new gear and equipment delivers on the promise of standing out from the rest +Offers roughly 2-3 hours of content that is extremely well-balanced and offers a reasonable challenge The Surge 2: The Kraken DLC aims to provide players with a new zone, new enemy types, new gear, and equipment to enjoy, but our biggest question yet: Is it a big enough package at its $11.99 USD price point? Let’s find out!
