The little spirit Ori is no stranger to peril, but when a fateful flight puts the owlet Ku in harm’s way, it will take more than bravery to bring a family back together, heal a broken land, and discover Ori’s true destiny. From the creators of the acclaimed action-platformer Ori and the Blind Forest comes the highly anticipated sequel. Embark on an all-new adventure in a vast world filled with new friends and foes that come to life in stunning, hand-painted artwork. Set to a fully orchestrated original score, Ori and the Will of the Wisps continues the Moon Studios tradition of tightly crafted platforming action and deeply emotional storytelling.

I haven’t played the first Ori so maybe my opinion doesn’t mean much, but I really loved this game. The visuals were beautiful, the music was amazing and moving around the map became so much fun once you unlocked more

One of the best platformers I've ever played. I recommend this one and the first one as well. My only complaint in this game is that sometimes they choose art direction over accessibility. You will spend a decent amount

The game is beautiful but difficult to play. Let's start with the positives. The background music is superb. The graphics are very pretty to look at. Some of the NPCs (the Moki, mostly) are cute & funny. But I found it

If you finished the first game and thought, "Man, I really wish the combat was meatier, the movement was faster, and I wanted to cry even more," then just buy this right now. It is the textbook definition of a perfect
