LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2 is a premium action game for PC developed by TT Games. It is the sequel to the original MMORPG, LEGO Marvel Super Heroes. This new installment boasts a new adventure as players travel between dimensions as they face a formidable threat.

Just like the first LEGO Marvel Super Heroes game, the new LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2 boasts a large roster of superheroes to play as. Their journey will take them across multiple dimensions and timelines as they chase after an interdimensional threat causing havoc across multiple worlds and across time itself.

Heroes unite

LEGO games have always taken inspiration from various media franchises for their themes and put their own unique little twist on the gameplay. There's no shortage of options to choose from, including the LEGO DC Super Heroes Mighty Micros to LEGO Star Wars: The Complete Saga, and the aforementioned Marvel-themed game, which there's a sequel to in the form of LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2.

In this exciting sequel, you'll go on new adventures across 17 locations spread throughout dimensions and eras. Starting with the Galaxy of the Guardians defending Xandar from an attack by Kang The Conqueror wielding a mysterious device on his ship. Meanwhile, Iron Man investigates an anomaly in Siberia, Spider-Man faces The Sinister Six, while Captain America leads a mission in Medieval England.

All these events seemingly random events are connected through time and space, with Kang's Citadel at the center of them all. Thus, begins a race through time as the heroes attempt to stop him before it's too late. The game is not without its shortcomings, though, with the first being its rather long-winded and convoluted story. Others include the confusing controls and messy combat.

Not its finest moment

All in all, LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2 is one of the franchise's less-than-good releases as it's ridden with all kinds of issues that ruin the fun and experience. From its messy combat to its imprecise controls, everything feels clunky. Not to mention, its attempt at setting up this grand plot ends up falling short. Simply put, you're better off playing something else.
