You'll build things, solve sliding tile puzzles, trace runes in the air with Doctor Strange, manipulate time occasionally, and look for secret collectibles. What follows is a succession of typical LEGO game levels throughout Chronopolis. The reason these places have been brought together is part of main antagonist Kang the Conqueror's evil masterplan, controlling time from his sword-shaped mothership as he seeks someone worthy of challenging his evil genius prowess or something. Swooping across Chronopolis is pretty cool, though, as it comprises a range of classic Marvel locations.įrom the snowy streets of Manhattan to Spider-Man 2099's Nueva York City, Kang's home of Egypt, Black Panther's kingdom of Wakanda, Iron Fist's mountain retreat in K'un-lun or Thor's fabled realm of Asgard, fans will get a kick out of the various Marvel hotspots. Beyond the twenty story missions, the open-world hub of Chronopolis offers numerous quests and challenges to complete that factor into attaining that elusive 100% completion, and these range from beating up petty criminals to defeating (more) bosses or completing irritating checkpoint races. The same can be said for much of LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2, although there are certain instances where a few smart puzzles alleviate the sense of repetition.


There's a lot of Guardians of the Galaxy stuff in LEGO Marvel 2.

Some of these sequences are good fun, consisting of multiple different stages, while others are a button-mashing slog. There's a greater emphasis on boss battles this time around, with a smattering of rather protracted showdowns against Marvel villains like M.O.D.O.K, the Red King, Venom/Carnage hybrid Carnom and fiery Thor bad guy Surtur. That's the least of the game's problems, however.Īn all-pervading sense of deja vu is arguably LEGO Marvel 2's biggest issue, as you once again set about smashing up scenery, collecting the studs that spew forth, while punching enemies until they fall into pieces. Like LEGO Marvel Avengers before it, this fan service largely surrounds the Marvel Cinematic Universe, with legal silliness no doubt preventing the X-Men and Fantastic Four from making an appearance. Boasting an open world that's infinitely larger than anything TT Games has created to date, it's also a great bit of Marvel fan service, despite the absence of some of the comic brand's biggest and most iconic characters.
