In LocoRoco 2 Remastered, the player assumes the role of a merry yellow ball, which travels through colorful locations and feeds on fruits to increase its size – the bigger it gets, the slower it becomes, not to mention the increased difficulty of fitting in some tight spots. Depending on player’s needs, the main protagonist can be split into smaller balls, as well as merged together again.
The secret of the game’s success lies in the interesting control system. To push the ball forward, one has to tilt their controller in a way that mimics gravity. Using this system and combining it with platform jumping, players can traverse various locations, discover secret levels, and avoid encountered obstacles.
The PS4 release of LocoRoco 2 Remastered offers graphics we all know from the original game, featuring flat, yet colorful backgrounds. Naturally, the game’s resolution has been adjusted to modern TV screens.

Game Ratings for LocoRoco 2 Remastered Video Game.
Push Square: 8 / 10 by Stephen Tailby
Aside from some more inventive level design and a couple of new bells and whistles to keep you occupied, LocoRoco 2 Remastered is more of the same, which in our book is no bad thing. There's little here that will surprise you, but it does just as good a job as the first game in providing a simple, grin-inducing few hours. We've rather enjoyed revisiting both titles this year, and we think fans old and new will still get a lot of fun out of them. Games as jovial as this one don't come around very often these days, so if you're after something light, you'll have a ball.
