Astérix & Obélix XXL 2

About

Astérix & Obélix XXL 2 sends the beloved Gaulish duo on a chaotic mission to Rome after their druid vanishes. Players guide Asterix and Obélix through the bustling Las Vegum amusement park tackling challenges set by Julius Caesar. The game blends platforming combat and exploration with each level packed with hidden nods to pop culture. Quick time events and brawls against Roman guards keep the action lively while the absurd humor and over the top gags stay true to the comics' spirit. Released in 2018 this remake brings the 2005 original to newer consoles and PCs. The lighthearted tone and accessible mechanics make it a hit with casual players though the repetitive combat and linear levels may not satisfy everyone. Fans of the franchise will appreciate the faithful adaptation while newcomers can enjoy the slapstick antics and vibrant visuals.
