Lastly a shield, which comes in three different sizes, affects the defense you’ll have access to. Long ranged weapon are made up of different types of guns such as assault cannons and sniper guns.

Melee weapons can be found in the forms of swords, scythes or spears. The game gives the player access to three main weapons which are customisable to a degree as long as you have the right materials. The customizable options in God Eater 2 is vast and at first can be overwhelming but just as you would with any game, patience and time pay off in the end. At this terminal the player can adjust skill sets, weapon sets, read emails from NPC’s from the game, learn about blood arts, adjust the skills of the NPC’s that accompany you on missions and so much more.

The hub area also has its own terminals accessible to the players. When not on a mission I found myself in the hub area where the players have access to a store to purchase various items and materials that not only help on missions but also help in forging new and stronger weapons. The game is completely monster hunter esque in my opinion and being a huge fan of the monster hunter series, this title was totally up my alley. God Eater 2: Rage Burst at its core is all about the monsters, hunting them, gathering materials and forging new weapons. This new ability touches well into the story of the game as well, helping the game build upon the character development and assisting the players protagonist into molding in the Blood Unit. Blood Arts boost normal attacks making the attacks dealt out even stronger. This new ability allows players to access a new mechanic within the game called Blood Arts. The members in this special task force each possess a new ability that succeeds the normal God Eaters power known as “Power of Blood”. God Eater 2 introduces us to a new unit in the ranks of the God Eaters, better known as the Blood Unit. The premise in God Eater 2: Rage Burst remains the same but this time you take on the role of a silent protagonist that has been discovered to possess even more inner power than just the ability to wield a God Arc. These monsters can only be defeated by God Arcs, unique weapons infused with a special power that can only be wielded by certain humans. The series focuses on monster hunters trying to save humanity from monsters known as Aragami. The God Eater series boasts titles on multiple video gaming platforms as well as an anime series. God Eater 2: Rage Burst is the expansion of God Eater 2, which was released in Japan in 2013 and is the successor to Gods Eater Burst. Just as with most games from Japan the West always receives the expansion versions, but who’s to say that this is a bad thing.
