## What is Maximus 2?

MAXIMUS 2 is a fantasy beat-em-up (brawler) that focuses on crunchy and satisfying combat. We captured the spirit of some of the best classic beat-em-ups, melding them into one memorable experience. Fight solo or with up to 4 players cooperative multiplayer!

STORY Is a single, continuous shot. This hasn’t been done since the 80's, rather than simply cutting from one stage to the next, the players enter an animated transition to the next area, creating the illusion of a fantastic journey.

MULTIPLAYER co-op in real time, fight together with up to 4 players online or on the same device with Bluetooth controllers.

HEROES with their own roles and weapons.  The tank, the wrestler, the magician, the outlaw, the healer and the ninja.

TEAMWORK If you work together, you survive. Players can revive a fallen teammate, support or heal them and gang up to juggle enemies off each other in the air.

### 3/5 — Fun game but….

*2026-08-19, version 2604.14*

This game is great in all of it’s aspects but the one thing that makes it not so fun is that when your fighting you mostly miss all of your moves because for some reason your not stand exactly where the enemy is.

### 2/5 — Bit annoying

*2026-06-21, version 2604.14*

I’m ok with the grind but I hate that you have to pay money just to be able to make a room private so you don’t have randoms join that keep making you advance when your trying to level up or get health pickups

### 5/5 — Шедевр

*2026-06-10, version 2604.14*

Анимация потрясающая. Геймплэй невероятный. Юморок уместный. Короче, твёрдая пятёрка!!!

### 1/5 — Games not horrible

*2026-05-23, version 2604.14*

It’s not horrible but it’s not great. Game basically forces u to grind the game constantly just to get a new character to have to do the same thing characters cost way to much at the beginning especially since ur forced to buy equipment or ur not living any further

### 5/5 — Maximus: My all-time favorite

*2026-05-23, version 2604.14*

Maximus 2 is an excellent game, and Fourfats has done a great job with it. That said, the original Maximus remains the number one game of my life. It isn’t just a game to me; it’s a part of who I am. I am writing this to express my deep love for the series and to voice my sincere hope that the original Maximus will one day be brought back to the App Store. It’s a classic that belongs in our hands.

### 5/5 — Amazing game

*2026-05-18, version 2604.14*

I love this game so much. Not a bot btw

### 5/5 — И это еще и бесплатно

*2026-04-20*

Эта игра шедевр если будет прода сделайте как Бишоп королеву……

### 4/5 — Buff the player and add playable villains

*2026-02-22, version 2511.14*

The player character is pretty weak in this game. It can make the game a bit more frustrating compared to the others. Also let me play as obsidian and my life is yours.

### 1/5 — 看了续命广告没用

*2026-01-09, version 2511.14*

看了续命广告没用 没收到奖励

### 5/5 — Очень крутая игра

*2025-12-25*

Игра классная, доставляет возможность игры по сети  и подключение геймпада
