Blasphemous 2
Blasphemous 2 is a side-scrolling Metroidvania video game developed by The Game Kitchen and published by Team17. The sequel to Blasphemous (2019), it was released for Microsoft Windows, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S in August 2023 and for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One in November 2023. The game received generally positive reviews upon release.
Like its predecessor, Blasphemous 2 is a 2D side-scrolling Metroidvania action-adventure game. Players assume control of the Penitent One, a silent knight who must embark on an adventure in a new kingdom to prevent the rebirth of a curse named "The Miracle". The story of the game is set after the "Wounds Of Eventide" update of the original game. As with previous games in the series, the world in the game is filled with deadly traps, difficult platform sequences, hostile enemies and boss characters. Players will also encounter other non-playable characters who will either offer assistance, or side quests.
The game introduces several new weapons, with each having their own reach, speed, special abilities and skill tree. The weapons in the game include the Veredicto, a war censer with the furthest reach that deals powerful but slow attacks and is incapable of parrying; Sarmiento and Centella, a dual-wielding rapier and dagger with fast and rapid strikes but has the shortest range and a damage bonus that is lost if the player gets hit; and the Ruego Al Alba, a praying blade with balanced attributes. These weapons are also useful for traversal, aiding players in discovering new paths and solving puzzles. The abilities of the protagonist can also be customized. Players can equip up to five "rosary beads", which provide passive bonuses, and two active spells (known as prayers) in the game. Players can also collect statues which provide small bonuses by themselves, and more significant buffs when they are placed together in certain combinations.
Set many years after the Wounds of Eventide ending, worship for the Miracle had declined following the death of the High Wills and Escribar, and for a time, Castodia experienced an age without gods or the Miracle's influence. However, pain and suffering remained in the world, and people eventually began praying for a greater power to relieve their suffering, giving the Miracle an opportunity to return. The Miracle eventually gathered enough power to create a massive heart in the sky to birth a new child. To protect the heart, the Miracle resurrected its most loyal followers, the Archconfraternity led by the very first Penitent, Eviterno.
Afterwards, Crisanta attempted to put a stop to the Miracle's plans by slaying the child before it could be born, but she failed and commits suicide after being defeated by Eviterno. Meanwhile, Deogracias took charge of the Penitent One's coffin and guarded it until his death. The Miracle's return also served to resurrect the Penitent One, forcing him to continue his penance.
After resurrecting and obtaining a new weapon to replace the Mea Culpa, the Penitent One encounters an angelic woman named Anunciada, who instructs him to destroy the Miracle's new child and prevent the Miracle from returning. In order to do this, the Penitent One must collect the Three Regrets, which will open a path for the Penitent One to reach the heart in the sky. With a new mission, the Penitent One proceeds to travel across Cvstodia again, collecting the Three Regrets as well as eliminating all of the members of the Archconfraternity.
As the Penitent One collects the Three Regrets and uncovers more information, he eventually learns that the Miracle was able to return thanks to answering the prayers of a devout husband and wife, who fervently prayed for a child despite the wife being barren. What resulted was a miraculous immaculate conception, but the birth instead created the disfigured Witness and released a plague that killed the wife and many others. However, the Miracle's goals were achieved as the inhabitants of Cvstodia rediscovered its existence. The Penitent One also encounters the spirit of the Witness, who explains that his role is to observe and narrate the events of the story.
Finally, the Penitent One manages to reach the top of the City of the Blessed Name, where he confronts and defeats Eviterno. However, he is too late to stop the child, the Incarnate Devotion, from being born. The Incarnate Devotion is initially confused at what its purpose is, but attacks the Penitent One, seeing it as a test. The Penitent One eventually defeats the Incarnate Devotion, leading to one of two endings:
