This seems like a really good deal for two games, one of which is brand new, and both of which have had pretty good reviews. It's 50% off, which is very generous for a launch discount, and there doesn't seem to be a physical version around at the moment so it's not going to be cheaper elsewhere any time soon. Also, if you buy six lots of £5 credit from CDkeys for £3.99 each, what you end up paying works out as roughly £22.
I was surprised to see that no one else had posted this, to be honest. Is it because the game just isn't that well known? In any case, for what it's worth, the first one is one of the best single player FPS games I've ever played. It has an old-school FPS vibe in terms of level design etc, but with modern shooting mechanics, a unique setting and really well-implemented first-person sword combat. The plot is actually pretty decent too. By all accounts the sequel has basically doubled down on everything that was great about the first game and added co-op into the mix too.

The original game was £4 recently which some may remember.. It doesn't make this as tempting even though they've hiked the price of the first game wayyyyy up now!
I picked it up at that price well worth it .second one looks good

All developers should coach people on the ways of co-op

I think this is one of those hidden gems. ACG (a popular youtuber) loved it and said it's a definite buy on PC. Looks a bit like a mix between Doom's combat and Borderlands' loot and coop.

It looks more like Shadow Warrior.

Not supposed to be as good as the first one which I already have so no incentive for me. Voted hot though

I'd say it's better, gameplay is more varied, settings are definitely more interesting, as are the enemies
