About this game
A bounty on your sister sends a successful bounty hunter back into conflict, this time against a pharmaceutical conglomerate. High On Life 2 combines first-person shooting with talking alien weapons and skateboard traversal. Grind along the environment as you navigate its worlds, with weapon personalities also feeding into the game's comedy. Progression moves between exploration hubs and more linear mission sequences reached while pursuing targets. The hubs contain interactions that open as you gain new power-ups, giving you reasons to return beyond the immediate bounty. Choosing when to follow a target and when to explore those spaces sits alongside the practical work of moving through the scenery and fighting with your alien arsenal.
Collected in series

AI review
AI reviews are subjective assessments, not player ratings. See each review for its evidence and limitations.Published date:
A fit for players who want mobile gunplay and character comedy within a hub-and-mission adventure.
Skating gives scenery a movement role, while the hub structure leaves space to explore between focused targets. Talking weapons make personality part of the action, so an interest in character comedy is central to the likely appeal.
Strengths
- Grindable scenery can encourage thinking about routes as part of a firefight's surroundings.
- Power-up-dependent hub interactions can give returning to familiar spaces a concrete purpose.
Weaknesses
- Players seeking a quiet shooting experience may find comedic weapon personalities compete with the action for attention.
Who it is for: Players who enjoy combining shooting with traversal and are receptive to character-driven comedy.
