"If you&s;re a fan of the original Dusk Diver, there&s;s plenty here for you to enjoy. Better combat and more time to hang out with the delightful staff of the Tumaz Mart is sure to please, but it&s;s a shame …"

"Dusk Diver 2 shows a notable improvement over the original by adding a second playable character to switch between in-battle at any point, but doesn&s;t improve the formula enough to be a must-have for anyone who didn&s;t love the original."

Read original review"Slightly above average or simply inoffensive. Fans of the genre should enjoy them a bit, but a fair few will be left unfulfilled."
