    Defense Grid 2 is an enjoyable return to Hidden Path’s dystopian future, though whilst the sequel features a number of improvements some key features of the original, in particular the engaging story, have been lost along the way. For fans of the genre it’s still an essential entry on PC and console, with hours of content and plenty of replayability, all wrapped up in a high quality package.

    It’s easy to quickly establish a rhythm to stonewalling specific enemy types or to recognize that a tower with added damage and the means to disable enemy shields feels a little overpowered. Still, Defense Grid 2 represents the pinnacle of tower-defense design at this moment and for that it gets a firm recommendation from this reviewer.
