The Surge 2 PC preview: Brutal melee action with a coat of sci-fi paint

[Windows Central]

It's brutal melee combat, but with robots and stuff.
Unforgiving, hardcore melee games like Dark Souls or Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice are quite the rage. Unfortunately, there is a lack of games like them across the market overall. With The Surge 2, though, development studio Deck13 is helping to change that. And while it absolutely uses the Dark Souls-style as a foundation, The Surge 2 is filled with some different -and fun- mechanics that make it stand out from other titles in this genre. I got a chance to preview a beta build. And after playing for several hours, I can confidently say that, as long as the developers can iron out its bugs before the game's September 24 launch date, Deck13 is going to have a hit on their hands.
