On This Day In Gaming History!: March 27th, 2018

MDK2 was a third-person shooter, action-adventure video game developed by BioWare and published by Interplay Entertainment. It is a sequel to the 1997 game MDK. First released for the Dreamcast in March 2000, a slightly reworked version, featuring level design modifications and gameplay tweaks, was released for the PlayStation 2 as MDK 2: Armageddon in North America on March 27th, 2001.

MDK2 received generally positive reviews across all systems, with critics praising the graphics, variety of gameplay styles, level design, boss fights, the game’s sense of humor, and its fidelity to the original MDK. The most commonly criticized aspects of the game were the difficulty level, which was felt to be too high, and the platforming sections, which many critics found frustrating and too exacting.
