Deck13’s The Surge wound up being one of 2017’s best surprises, and they’re looking to make something even better. Publisher Focus Home Interactive announced today that the studio is working on a sequel, called The Surge 2, that will feature the limb-targeting combat system that fans enjoyed in the first game. More details are expected to be announced soon, but they did say that the game will feature “a sprawling, devastated city with larger and more ambitious level design,” and an expanded combat system.
Here’s what publisher Focus Home Interactive had to say about the upcoming sequel:
The Surge 2 keeps what fans and critics loved about the original ? hardcore combat utilizing a unique, dynamic, limb-targeting system and deep character progression ? while also expanding greatly upon the formula. The Surge 2 takes place in a brand new environment: a sprawling, devastated city with larger and more ambitious level design, made possible by Deck13?s upgraded and improved engine. Combat is more brutal and tactical than ever, with even more options thanks to an expanded limb targeting system. In addition, more abilities, weapons, implants, and drones give players a vast arsenal to build their character with, in their fight against the array of diverse new enemies and bosses.
