Gameplay is Silky Smooth
Yes, Rebellion have finally brought their hit RTS game to Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One. Firstly, using a controller instead of a mouse may seem a little strange at first, but quickly becomes as natural at controlling the HUD in Evil Genius 2 as when we played it on PC. There is no need for complicated, complex mechanics to navigate and access the different options. With the power that Xbox supplies the gameplay is incredibly smooth with no loading times and seamless movement between the objectives screen, world map or and your evil hideout avoiding those irritating loading screens. Even when you have crammed your multi level lair with heinous henchmen, meandering minions, and nefarious gadgets the gameplay is silky smooth and of course the melodramatic music superbly mimics the James Bond genre but with a comedic Evil Genius 2 twist.
A Perfect Crossover
I am happy to say that Rebellion has made a perfect crossover from PC to Console. Evil Genius 2 is great fun, with cartoon like graphics, easy to use controls and complex objectives that require a balance and strategic plan to succeed. Unleash your inner villain, capture and torture spies by giving them a wounding wet willy or by a severe tickling, control your minions without remorse or mercy and plot some of the most outrageous odious crimes the world has ever seen, yes it is good to be bad and so enjoyable to play!
