While everything looks superb in this game, it’s also clear the game hasn’t been properly optimized, as even our somewhat heavier gaming rig experienced a lot of frame drops when the background animations got a bit hectic.

Blood, gore, fencing, archery, knife throwing and swordplay are probably the best way to describe the following game, but intense, suspenseful, hilarious and skills are another batch of important keywords when it comes to Nidhogg 2.
