Psychonauts 2 gets new screens, Psychonauts 1 gets new trailer 06 May, 2021 / 1 comment

    When I first looked at these screenshots on my phone it didn’t look a million miles off the original, but now I’m on the big screen — wow the detail on Raz’s goggles, etc! And just generally the game looks super refined.

    Also enjoy the Grim Fandango-sequel mural off in the background.
