Prices
Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 1.57/day in the week to Aug 8 → 0.57/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 24 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 9 places towards #1, and the 2,419 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Basic combat, not well designed world, multiple bugs and issues.
ELEX II, like all games Piranha Bytes did after Gothic, is Gothic with a new coat of paint. So, if you like their other games—I do—you'll probably like this one. Except ... * It isn't finished. And I don't mean in the sense of being the second part of a trilogy that'll never be completed, but in the sense that ELEX II itself isn't finished. It screams »there was supposed to be more content here, but we ran out of time/money and had to release what we had« all over the place. Random examples would be Jax's [spoiler]sickness mechanic[/spoiler], which never actually does anything, and the [spoiler]treatment procedure[/spoiler], that just fades to black. Lots of cutscenes don't use the right armour, weapon, etc. From act 3 onwards NPC dialogue only rarely changes based on the world state. Case in point [spoiler]Caja doesn't even react when their son is killed[/spoiler]. * Acts 1 and 2 are as good (or bad) as ever, acts 3 and 4 are just a succession of mindless "kill 20 rats" quests. Except it's more like 80 rats per. Now, PB games aren't exactly known for their engaging combat mechanics. For the last couple of hours I just wanted it to be over. Possibly related to the previous point. They can't have taken more than an afternoon to add. * The ending ... is non-existent. It's 90 % sequel bait and 10 % hastily thrown-together epilogue consisting of a couple of stills and a few lines of text. ELEX I was much more self-contained than this. So, yes, it's a Piranha Bytes game, no question, but I can't in good conscience [i]recommend[/i] it.

Разочарован игрой, я привык что Piranha Bytes за что бы не взялась она всегда делает Готику, только в разном сеттинге. И это даже хорошо, мы по своему любим эти проекты, а кто не фанат и не в теме просто пройдет мимо и не оценить все эти игры. Мне вполне зашла первая часть "Готики" в сеттинге постапокалипсиса, но вторая... даже не знаю, начиная с технической составляющей и вплоть до тупорылых квестов с убийством кучи мобов просто начала раздражать в какой то момент. Вылеты из игры с ошибкой где даже окно игры нормально порой не закрыть, приходится выходить из системы, кэширование шейдеров о которых игрока даже не предупреждают, ты сидишь и ждешь загрузки, когда один процентик полминуты идёт, что трудно написать было об этом? Я думал это у меня с компом что то. При скудной графике ФПС порой падает очень сильно, да компьютер у меня слабенький, это я понимаю, но KCD2 например выглядит сносно, и там ты понимаешь что да, красивая игра, и лагает она справедливо на моём конфиге. Иногда игра выглядит красиво, но это заслуга наверное того кто проектировал саму карту, виды открываются живописные. По поводу квестов, есть интересные, но потом начинается просто миллион квестов с зачисткой территории, ну главное наклепать, да? Количество порой не равно качество. Прошел и забыл.
es führt die Handlung von Elex fort, reicht aber atmosphärisch nicht an Teil 1 ran.
So far the game pretty cool and it runs very smooth on the hand held legion go
Its a typical piranha bytes game. Their writing has gotten worse but the guns are fun. Id start with risen 3 if you're new to the developer or Eurojank games
У игры крепкое начало, смазанная середина и отвратительный конец. Ну серьезно - бегать и тупо лупить толпы мобов это все что смогли придумать разработчики :( Потраченного времени жаль
Die ersten Stunden waren schön und ich fand es ein sehr gutes Spiel. Aber als die Story sich entwickelte, bemerkte ich Lücken in der Erzählung, Widersprüche und allgemein schlechtes Questdesign. Im letzten Act muss ich mich zwingen, weiterzuspielen, da die Quest einfach nur ein leere aneinander Reihung von töte viele Gegner sind. Die Story hat Twists, bei dennen ich das Gefühl habe, sie sind nur da um einen Twist zu haben. Am Ende bin ich sogar erleichtert das Piranha Byte nicht noch eine uninspiriete leere Geschichte erzählen wird.
The game is very similar to the good old Gothic franchise, RPG classic and a lot of combat with exploration.
