Blasphemous 2 is a souls-like dark fantasy metroidvania developed by a Spanish independent studio, The Game Kitchen. This critically acclaimed sequel to Blasphemous, a best-selling video game from 2019, was published by Team17 in 2023.

The pilgrimage continues

Blasphemous 2 starts right after the events of Blasphemous: Wounds of Eventide DLC. Once again become The Penitent One, the main protagonist of the Blasphemous series, and explore the new world you find yourself lost in. Use your trusty sword, the Mea Culpa, and other powerful weapons freshly introduced to the series, to fight various grotesque and twisted enemies that inhabit this dark and mysterious land!

Just like its prequel, the Blasphemous 2 video game is a single-player souls-like metroidvania with horror, platformer and action RPG elements. This unforgiving and difficult story-driven adventure is set in a dark 2D world presented in stunningly detailed pixel art. The setting of the game is full of religious themes references as well as gore and violence, making Blasphemous 2 a pretty gloomy production designed with a mature audience in mind.

Combat and exploration

Blasphemous 2’s gameplay is heavily focused on brutal combat, with every skirmish being a challenge and threat to The Penitent One. Trapped in a cycle of life, death and resurrection, the protagonist has to find the most efficient and the safest ways to destroy his unique, grotesque enemies. Discover new weapons and moves, perform combos and bloody executions, and prepare for challenging boss battles that will put your skills and faith to the ultimate test. Customise and further develop your skills to find your own favourite way to play - and die trying!

That’s not all though - with a brand-new world perfect for deep exploration, The Penitent One can continue his journey to salvation in a non-linear way, discovering new, powerful weapons, various missions and an array of strange NPCs to talk to and help out. Get to know the whole story of Blasphemous 2 and travel the gloomy areas to get the lore-rich experience of misery, pain and victory.
