I wish to assume I’m not overly excited by shiny new know-how however I need to confess I’m excited to see what seven years of technical progress will do for the skull-cracking, gut-unspooling, and kidney-tossing foolishness of Surgeon Simulator. Developers Bossa Studios introduced Surgeon Simulator 2 final night time at The Game Awards and I discover myself idly daydreaming about simply how great and terrible its wacky physics-simulated surgical procedures could be. Bossa haven’t stated a lot about what’s truly new right here however you could let me dream. It does appear to be increasing the cooperative multiplayer, at the least.
Surgeon Simulator is an easy joke however it’s nonetheless a humorous one, even on this period of one million janky Job Title Simulator gag games. Here, take management of digital fingers managed with far too many keys, buttons, and actions to be wise; now go carry out live-saving surgical procedure. Sure, perhaps you’ll fumble your bone noticed and take a nasty nick out of the affected person, however even for those who by chance fling the noticed to the opposite aspect of the room there are numerous methods to crack a rib cage. Just think about all these different objects round you. It’s a game of carry out bloody surgical procedure ineptly with no matter instruments you may handle to carry in your huge silly fingers. Lovely. This grew extra ridiculous and terrible over time with expansions including dentistry and zero-gravity spacesurgery.
So what’s up with Surgeon Simulator 2? Bossa are obscure. Their announcement gabs about “a vastly expanded offering promising true co-operation” and “cranking everything up to a whole new level”, and I see some mighty silly working theatres within the trailer.
Surgeon Simulator 2 is due in 2020. For now, there isn’t any extra helpful info on the game’s site.
