As you progress further into the campaign each team progressively gets more difficult, and tactics that you thought worked before will need to be readjusted because the AI will catch on to patterns quickly. The problem is that getting there requires a lot of decision making and to avoid any fumbles along the way. The way to win is simple: score a touchdown before your opponent does.

With brand new races included in this version such as the Kislev Circus Bears and the new challenge mode to test your wits, Blood Bowl 2: Legendary Edition really stands out when compared to its predecessor and provides more variety to create an enriching experience. It’s more of a refresher for veteran players who came from the original Blood Bowl but in the end, it’s still worth playing through. The solo campaign mode is where you’ll most likely start off since it gives both new and veteran players a breakdown of how to play the game and various tips with regards to securing wins consistently. Of course, you’ll have limbs flying off in all different directions which may be a bit off putting for some, but it’s all in good fun as you have to constantly think through your turns to avoid conceding points. Both games share a very ruthless approach to football and have a great deal of humor to keep you coming back for more. For some reason, every time we played Blood Bowl 2: Legendary Edition, it reminded us of the classic Mutant League football game that released on the Sega Genesis back in the early 90’s.
