![]() These types of sci-fi stories are always so compelling, because they twist reality just enough to suck us in and have us understand what is happening without it sounding too fabricated or unrealistic. She vanishes just like the entire Hammond Corp team did, and she begins her journey in a world very foreign to her and trying to find a way back home. Upon her acquisition, Indra receives a very cryptic message that says, “Come to Antarctica if you wish to see your daughter again.” Without skipping a beat, Indra rushes to the station in Antarctica, and finds herself sucked into the computing system after powering things on. ![]() Hammond, Hammond Corp collapsed and was purchased by Indra Chaudhari, the founder and CEO of the Globe 3 conglomerate. ![]() Sadly, tragedy befell in 2053, when an entire team of Hammond Corp researchers in Antarctica vanished into thin air, including Dr. Zero latency computing became the standard, and her company, Hammond Corp, became a household name. Elizabeth Hammond revolutionized the world as we know it in 2007 with the invention of the first-ever superluminal communicator. As you explore this big, interconnected alternate Earth, it starts to feel really rewarding to have gained a mastery of how your character can move through it.The story this time around is that Dr. The Grapple is the most familiar returning ability, while others feel either like fresh interpretations of old movement skills or completely new. Once you get to the latter-half of Axiom Verge 2 though, some really fun movement options begin to open up. This might be because, early on, Indra herself doesn’t have so many movement options her big early-game upgrades are things like getting to climb up walls, but that ends up paling in comparison to later-game movement abilities. It’s actually incorporated into the story in a very interesting way, and movement-wise, it feels incredibly fun to flit around as. I’ll say, without too many spoilers, that what Happ does with the drone in Axiom Verge 2 might be some of my favorite Axiom Verge content, period. Then there’s the drone, returning once again to provide more movement options and alternate routes. I eventually had a good grasp of the world, especially as the story focused more on current events and some surprising, fun twists, but I felt a little out of my depth lore-wise early on. I’d have to flip back through various notes I’d made to myself to remember which character knew who and how, and how some names connected to others. This isn’t a bad thing, but at least early on, it feels like big names and references start getting chucked at you before you have time to really contextualize them. One of the more noticeable differences in Axiom Verge 2, for me, was it felt like it put the story and universe building a little more at the forefront. As you explore the world, its structure will immediately start to feel familiar some ledges are just out of reach, or some rocks look suspiciously fragile, and you’ll venture across this new plane to find the equipment-Arms-you’ll need to get through them. Axiom Verge 2 follows Indra, a tech CEO who finds herself plunging into alternate worlds filled with biotech monsters and strange, godlike beings, much like Trace in the first Axiom Verge.
