![]() ![]() The story only really exists to keep coming up with excuses for you to move from point A to point B, or tease you with an objective before a blocked door or some other inconvenience forces you to reroute. Even worse, you’ll soon remember it doesn’t matter - Aftermath’s story isn’t very compelling, delivered by Mia, a voice on your intercom, who gives an abundance of unneeded contextual information. ![]() It’s been a year since Part 1, so jumping back into Part 2, it was difficult to recall what I was doing and for what purpose. A brief recap of the (frankly uninteresting) story plays out, before you are back in the Ops Room, exactly where you left off. The ending of Part 1 is abrupt, as is the beginning to Part 2. However, the overwhelming problem is that the split into two parts has left both parts feeling oddly paced, bloated and repetitive. That being said, it does introduce some new elements and the latter half of this part features much more variety in gameplay and dinosaurs, which is great. Given Aftermath is a continuation of the original and not an actual sequel, it should come as no surprise that all of the above is as true for Part 2 as it was for Part 1. However, I came away also feeling unsatisfied - the stealth sequences were repetitive, there were only two types of dinosaurs and, worst of all, the story was uninteresting and incomplete. The visuals were fantastic, as were the dinosaur animations and the lush soundtrack. In my review of Part 1, I found the game to be serviceable and mostly enjoyable, but still with some pretty noticeable flaws. Originally planned to release as one whole story, the game was instead split into two - Part 1 came out last year, and now Part 2 is available as DLC, continuing and finishing the story. The story of Aftermath is a continuation of the newer Jurassic World films, however last year’s release didn’t tell the full story. Jurassic World Aftermath released as a Quest-exclusive stealth title last year, based on the iconic film series that began with Jurassic Park in 1993. But is there enough dinosaur action here to justify diving back in, almost a year on? Here’s our full review. Jurassic World Aftermath: Part 2 is now available, finishing off the story as a DLC purchase that continues on from Part 1. ![]()
