ACGJeremy PenterAug 2022"Despite a couple issues Hard West 2 is an excellent Xcom style game but based in a world of devils, dysentery, and double-barreled shotguns. An absolute blast to play."

DexertoLawrence ScottiAug 20226.5/10Although Hard West 2 delivers on some awesome visuals and sound design, its gameplay didn’t hook me and its characters never grew on me. For those looking to scratch the itch of a turn-based tactics game until a wave of games releases in the fall of 2022, then this could be right up your alley.
