Destroy All Humans! 2: Reprobed is an open world action-adventure video game developed by Black Forest Games and published by THQ Nordic. It is the sixth installment in the Destroy All Humans! franchise, and a remake of the 2006 original game.

Plot

Set in the 1960's, the game takes place ten years after the events of the first game. This time, Crypto is back to exact revenge on the KGB for blowing up the Furon mothership.[1]

Gameplay

See also: Destroy All Humans! 2

Destroy All Humans! 2: Reprobed is played from a third-person perspective. It is an action-adventure game that involves both shooting and stealth elements. As players progress throughout the game, new weapons, new abilities, better stats, and access to new vehicles are unlocked.[2] The game is set across five locations: Bay City, Albion, Takoshima, Tunguska, and the Solaris moon base (some of which are parodies of real-life locations such as San Francisco, London, and Tokyo). Several of these locations have been expanded in size from the original game, adding new areas to explore.[3]

The game's campaign is fully playable in both single-player and two-player local split-screen co-op.[4]

Release

Destroy All Humans! 2: Reprobed was released on Microsoft Windows (via Steam, GOG.com, and the Epic Games Store), PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S on August 30, 2022.[5][6] The game launched with a physical collector's edition, entitled the Second Coming Edition, limited to 3,700 copies and sold at a retail price of $399.99.[7]

Reception

IGN gave the game 6/10, writing that "Destroy All Humans! 2: Reprobed does a fine job of updating the 2006 original to look like a modern game, but that game was a fairly unambitious sequel that didn’t do much to evolve its gameplay...by and large it’s more of the same B-movie sci-fi homage without a lot of brain-popping new ideas."[12]
