These are far less fun and can be extremely irritating. Next, there are missions that task you with finding stuff. Whether you're blasting them away or sucking them up, it's pretty fun to warp around the arena-like stages while taking care of hordes of pesky demons. The first has you protect girls from encroaching demons. This time around, there are a couple of extra stage types that provide some much-needed variety. On the plus side, Gal Gun 2's mindless shooting is pretty fun and good for a few laughs. Why anyone would want to listen to that is beyond me. It's so incredibly annoying that I had to play with the sound off. Their shrill voices are deafening, too, as they shriek and swoon like only an anime girl can. The environments are still as unmemorable and the gals themselves look like they were made with the help of a cookie cutter.

On top of that, there is absolutely no VR support which is ridiculous for a game that was clearly designed with VR in mind.Īside from this obvious disappointment, Gal Gun 2 still has the same charm as Double Peace with its cheerful albeit outdated visuals and silly sense of humour full of sexual innuendos. This change is curious indeed and as someone who enjoys arcade rail shooters, I found this setup to be far less enjoyable. The main difference from Double Peace is the fact that Gal Gun 2 seems to be built for VR as it has you teleport to different preset locations instead of automatically traversing stages on-rail. Also, the demon system is back although this time, you can suck them up after shooting them off possessed girls. The basic formula hasn't changed much as you still shoot schoolgirls while trying to aim for their weak spot so they collapse sooner.

I'm not quite sure that crazy lady just showed up out of nowhere!Īfter the somewhat enjoyable Gal Gun Double Peace that released a couple years ago and the Mighty Gunvolt Burst re-release Gal Gunvolt Burst, we finally have a sequel to the goofy bimbo-blasting arcade shooter from Inti Creates. However, stupid games can be some of the most fun, too, so let's see if Gal Gun 2 is an enjoyable way to kill brain cells. Shooting schoolgirls with pheromone shots so they stop sexually harassing you is a stupid premise for a video game. Gal Gun 2 is also available for Nintendo Switch
