Postal 2: Paradise Lost (2015)

Postal 2: Paradise Lost is the expansion and sequel for the main game Postal 2. It picks up where the main game Postal 2 ended and gives a whole new adventure of 5 days with its own achievements and tasks. Although the game is basically a recycled version of Postal 2 (the map is exactly the same, but all the areas are named different and have different skins and landscapes), it still has much originality.

Believe it or not, Postal 2: Paradise Lost is longer and bigger than the original game. It has the same principle, complete tasks throughout the week but every day you face a new “faction” for which you must do some chores.

Like I said in my Postal 2 review, the game is amazing. It still has the humour and satire, and, in my opinion, it might even be better than the main game. This is because of some factors:

The new enemies like the p*ssbots are hilarious. They are a straight rip off and middle finger to Borderlands. The excessive use of zombies also makes this a more varied game in comparison.

The music in this game is epic, just epic. The battle themes for the bosses gives you a rush of adrenaline and makes you completely focussed on the fight. I especially love the “B!tch fight” music. Postal 2: Paradise lost features far more boss fights that makes the game a lot more fun than its predecessor.

The fact that they made this DLC in 2015 says something. Running with Scissors stands behind their games and no matter the current time, still works on their past jewels.

The only issue I had with this game was the same as the original game. The constant, constant crashing at random times. Although annoying, it was playable and with enough saving it did not matter too much.

In conclusion, this DLC is worth every penny, and like the first game, I really enjoyed it.

Buy it and you will not regret it.
