IGN: 9 / 10 by James Duggan

Risk of Rain 2's early access hooked me with its fluid 3D action and distinct classes, and held my attention long after I'd seen everything it had to offer with its berserk roguelike progression, and the ability to squad up with friends.

Shacknews: 9 / 10 by Donovan Erskine

Risk of Rain 2 is a top-of-the-line roguelike.

PlayStation Universe: 8.5 / 10 by Sebastian Hawden

Risk of Rain 2 is fast, fluid and a lot of fun. This is amplified vastly in multiplayer, which works flawlessly and is very enjoyable. If you enjoy roguelikes you will enjoy Risk of Rain 2, even if you don't, you may want to try something that is quite different from what is currently on the market.
