More than 1 hour of gameplay from PS Japan
Big fan of the moblur used in GR2
It's fair to say that if you didn't like the first one this won't be that much different. Although, i can say having played both the Vita version and the Ps4 remaster, controls are much more enjoyable on the Ps4, and i can use all the different mechanics more easily (gravity slide for example), making the gameplay better imo. This time they seem to have added different gravity styles to increase variety.

Yep, the game oozes character, it's a lovely looking game and i like the twist with Jupiter/Lunar/Normal modes in the gravity powers, it seems like a refined Gravity Rush which is pretty much all i wanted from this sequel. Apparently the world is also huge in comparison to the first game. It's definitely one of my most anticipated games this fall, i just hope they don't end up delaying it because of TLG/FFXV :neutral:
There's a limited time GR2 demo in the Japanese store, currently downloading
If you don't have a Japanese account you can follow this video
And then to get free 24 hours of PS+ (you need it for the demo) try to upload one save in the cloud (even if you have no save in that account). Will post some impressions/screenshots here once it's finished downloading

This game uses pom in a lot of surfaces, good moblur and i also think it's using tssaa. But because they don't do sharpening on top it looks a bit soft overall (even though IQ is temporally stable, no shimmer or pixel crawl). Very clean presentation 
It also plays nicely once you turn off sixaxis camera movement (kinda hard to do it with Japanese though
).

How the character handles compared to the remaster? How is the camera?This game uses pom in a lot of surfaces, good moblur and i also think it's using tssaa.

Animation and movement is smooth in GR2 in comparison to the first, camera is similar but it doesn't use the aggressive acceleration from the remaster so i'd say it's better. Overall it feels similar to the first gravity rush but it is more refined. I'd recommend trying the game without the sixaxis movement because it is much better that way. Anyway, some screenshots!

- Examples of pom: 1 2 3 4 (last one appears when you hit the floor with gravity kick)
- Moblur (characters don't seem to be affected): 1 2
- Smearing from temporal aa: https://abload.de/img/gravitydaze2_5_201609virlj.jpg
- Same thing in motion (worst case scenario I've found in the demo): http://webm.land/media/Gx0y.webm
Edit: The lunar and jupiter styles are really good additions to the gameplay loop, really fun to use in combination with the "normal" mode, the game is also pushing a lot of physics and destruction, sometimes at the expense of framerate

Fighting Mechas !!!! No oe told me you find super looking japanese mechas in Gravity Rush ! That video is so making me buy the game, so.......
I dunno about the lunar gameplay. The guy seems to struggle with it.
You should try the demo, lunar is really fun. You are not supposed to have total control over it anyway, it's kinda like zero g.
Yep art direction is on point. Also, the move to physically based materials is really nice here even with the somewhat cartoony look, all around it is a stunning looking game

In regards to how it plays i just played back to back the remaster on ps4 and GR2 and i'd say both the control of the character as well as the aiming and responsiveness have been improved significantly over the original (remaster or not). It's night and day difference in comparison to the vita version and it is significantly better than the remaster imo.

Aaaaaand it's been delayed. Quelle surprise. January 18th it is now. Not being sandwitched in between all those behemoths is probably a good thing, though.
