The wait is over, KNACK IS BACK Y'ALL! Bigger, stronger and more suave than PlayStation's former puny mascot Nathaniel Drake.
Let's get some things straight first. Knack has been putting in some work between Knack 1 and the aforementioned Knack 2, alright? No longer does his combat répertoire consist of three punches and a kick. Knack 2 has a skill tree system, baby! You'll be upgrading his arsenal of punches, kicks and super attacks throughout the game. There's even a proper Co-op mode this time around, where you and your child or manchild-friend can pull of sick Co-op moves Hokuto no Ken-style. Cerny also graced us with more platforming in Knack 2, so that you can put your hand-eye coordination to the test and frustrate your Co-op partner even more by pushing them off platforms and down gaps.
This is a Knack game like you've never seen before! Trust me, I've played the demo.
