If you missed the crazy and exciting game Destroy All Humans! in the early 2000s, the creators of this game want you to know that you don't have to feel left out. THQ Nordic recently released updated and revised remakes of the originals, the second game in the series called Destroy All Humans! 2: Reprobed.
Basically, fans of the original PS2 game can expect a game that's pretty faithful to the original, with several new locations and missions that expand the story, a handful of new alien weapons and a general graphics upgrade.
For those who don't know what to expect, Reprobed is a kind of weird cartoon about aliens trying to take over the Earth. The first Destroy All Humans! game focused on an invasion of onion-headed aliens in the 1950s, and this sequel picks up the story a decade later, in the 1960s.
Players go through 1969 as a slightly murderous red-eyed guy called Crypto (or Crypyospordium 187, if you want to be prepared), who sounds a lot like a bad imitation of actor Jack Nicholson and knows his way around the world. society slips into the bodies of the weak.
In this episode, the Soviet KGB discovered this masked space invader and destroyed his alien spacecraft. This missile attack carried pieces of technology and weapons from the mothership to the fictional Bay City and destroyed Crypto's longtime persona as president of the United States.
And now that he can no longer party with carefree hippie girls, the little gray protagonist must bribe the Soviets, assert his technological superiority over humanity and possibly start a sex cult, while killing as many people as possible.
Despite the story, which can seem quite dark, Reprobed is designed to be as funny as possible (even if many of the laughs seem a bit old-fashioned these days). To that end, the missions focus on humor, and the aliens and devices throughout the story are equal parts destructive and whimsical.
For example, there is a lightning rod that makes the victims tremble with electricity. "Secretary" expels anyone who comes into contact with the walls and floor. Other devices make human victims dance or (in true alien form) interrogate them against their will and rip their heads off.
And, of course, Crypto is always ready for lots of strange comments in any situation. He can also read people's minds at any time, which often leads to sarcastic and sexually suggestive jokes.
Players traverse an open world map and complete several relatively short missions. They can also compete with friends in duels and play in multiplayer mode, but this is only available on PS5 and not on PS4, where we tested the game.
Having said all that, the PS4 version is running very poorly, with textures flashing on the screen all the time and shadows of very dubious quality. The difference to the PS5 version is quite glaring, and if you have the choice of where to play, I definitely recommend the new generation version.
