Metal Gear Rising 2: Takeover

Metal Gear Rising 2: Takeover is an open world action-adventure hack and slash game made by Kojima Productions and published by Sony Entertainment Inc. for the PSVita and PlayStation 4 systems. It serves as the sequel to the widely popular game Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance.

Players take control of Raiden, the protagonist from the first Metal Gear Rising, as he ventures out to England and Germany to deter a growing nuclear threat that could put the planet at risk.

Plot
In the year 2023, a whole 5 years after Raiden defeats Senator Armstrong, he is hailed as a hero for his actions. However, a deadly alliance created by two nuclear physicists, the English Horatio Coburn and the German Egon Luitpold, and they gain access to Metal Gear technology. Planning on creating a powerful weapon to dominate the West, Raiden rises again to stop the coalition,

Gameplay
The game is presented in the third-person, allowing the player to see Raiden's full body. The game is also open world, similar to Metal Gear Solid 5. Raiden can traverse the pseudo-recreation of London or Berlin in any way the player desires. The open world setting also allows missions to be completed by choice of the player.

The combat system has also seen some tweaks. Raiden retains his older abilities but now have been upped to modern standard. Raiden attacks with his high frequency blade, now with newer combos and a more precise timing window, allowing for better disposal of enemies. The game also features a nemesis system; killing a droid will make it target you viciously if you were to die. Raiden can also run on walls and channel electricity sources.
