Destroy All Humans 2: Reprobed Announced Early By PlayStation

In a now-deleted tweet, PlayStation revealed Destroy All Humans 2: Reprobed is coming to PS5.

13 Comments

Destroy All Humans 2: Reprobed has been announced for PlayStation 5. Revealed in a now-deleted tweet by PlayStation, Destroy All Humans 2: Reprobed appears to be a remake of the original Destroy All Humans 2, a follow-up to the remake of Destroy All Humans released last year.

The trailer shows off some gameplay of the 1969-based game, including psychedelic hippies and Cold War-era Russian spies. It also shows off a new weapon and a set of goggles that set off a colorful blast around Crypto, forcing people to dance.

The trailer did not include a release window for Destroy All Humans 2: Reprobed and the only platform announced was PlayStation 5. THQ Nordic teased the possibility of the remaster earlier this year in a video, where Crypto-137, the protagonist of Destroy All Humans, is interrupted by a clone of himself which fans believed to be Crypto-138, the protagonist of Destroy All Humans 2.

The reveal of Destroy All Humans 2: Reprobed comes only a few days before THQ Nordic's digital showcase, celebrating its 10th anniversary. The showcase will be hosted by The Game Awards Geoff Keighley and will feature six game announcements.

In GameSpot's review of Destroy All Humans, I gave it a 6/10, writing, "The stealth missions are rudimentary, the boss fights are tedious, and some poor audio work won't let you forget that this is a game from 15 years ago. However, its core loop of causing destruction and mayhem, laying waste to humans and cities, still feels satisfying. Destroy All Humans often feels like the PS2 game it is, but a fresh coat of paint and updated controls definitely make this remake enjoyable to play through today."

Hopefully this will do well, & we can get a new, more ambitious, batsh!t crazy game built from the ground up to take advantage of new hardware & game design, mechanics, etc of today.

So much potential in an idea like this to do anything & go anywhere with it!

This sounds promising. There were too many elements from the original games that bugged me. Should have been an easy win, but it wasn't. Hopefully the remake will address those issues.

The remake ruled. I felt warm and fuzzy playing it. Sure game design has progressed but it was personally touching to play something that felt like a PS2 game again.

@funky_monkey: Hopefully if the 2nd remake does well we'll get a polished and bug free version of Path of the Furon this time around. Seriously, that third game was glitchy as hell from what I remember. Reminds me of how fun True Crime Streets of LA could be and then trying to play True Crime Streets of New York and just having to quit playing that due to how bug ridden that game was too.

@Spartan_418: The third one was fun when it worked. It was glitchy as hell from what I remember. An actual working version/remaster of that would be nice considering all the kick ass stuff they added for your saucer the third time around.

Or maybe they'll just instead remake the Wii exclusive game Big Willy Unleashed and release it on all platforms so everyone can enjoy it this time around.
