Watchmen: The End is Nigh Part 2 Reviews

I feel gross after playing this :(

It's best to get this game bundled with Part 1, and even though this game has half the number of chapters in Part 1, it takes a significant amount of time to beat it, depending on how challenging the game is for you. The challenge also depends on which character you play through the game as. There are two endings and that also depends on the character you choose so there's some replayability here, and I've played this twice with each character. Even then, the story feels unfinished and there definitely was gonna be a Part 3 but it looks like it never materialised which is a shame. In the end, it's just alright.

Part 2 picks up right where the first one left off, and it’s just as intense, stylish, and fun. I played this one right after finishing Part 1, and it felt like a natural continuation — tighter level design, more dramatic cutscenes, and even better use of the comic-inspired aesthetics. The addition of Silk Spectre II and the shift in tone give this part a slightly different flavor, but it still keeps that same beat 'em up charm. The combat, again, isn’t groundbreaking — but it doesn’t need to be. It works, it’s responsive, and it fits the tone perfectly. For me, this wasn’t just a game — it was a piece of childhood rediscovered. Back then, these games were the reason I even got into Watchmen in the first place. They sparked my curiosity and eventually led me to the comics. 5 hours of co-op fun with a ton of nostalgia and cool comic-book flair. Can’t ask for much more than that. 🎮 If you like Watchmen, retro-style co-op brawlers, or just want a quick and gritty ride — this one’s absolutely worth your time.

A prequel to The End is Nigh Part 1. Nothing game-changing here, just some collectible Rorschach cards and lockpicking. It’s shorter than the first one and honestly gets boring after a while.
