'Gravity Rush 2' (PS4) Servers Shutting Down In 2018

Gravity Rush 2 is sequel to the Vita exclusive action/RPG original from 2012, seeing the return of heroine Kat, giving her brand new gravity-shifting options and combat mechanics.

In the sequel to the acclaimed PS Vita original, you will have brand new gravity-shifting options and combat mechanics at your disposal.

Gravity Rush 2 marks the return of gravity shifters Kat and Raven (now a powerful ally), ex-cop Syd, and introduces a bevy of new characters. The first new face to join the expansive world of Gravity Rush 2 is a mysterious guardian angel who shows up to help Kat when she’s in a bind, quickly dispensing of a group of pesky Nevi enemies. Angel is a superheroine with an aggressive and wild fighting style, and packs an overwhelming punch to her attacks. She also has a crystallization ability that helps her regenerate health instantly.

In Lunar style, the force of gravity is reduced, making Kat lighter and quicker. In Jupiter style, gravity is increased, slowing down Kat’s movements but making her more powerful. You can switch between Kat’s three gravity styles seamlessly to combine the styles into different combos for each situation.

Also new to Gravity Rush 2 is the Tag Battle system which pairs you up with an AI-controlled ally to take on the more serious opposition.

Launched earlier this year, Sony revealed that it will be shutting down the multiplayer servers by early next year.

While you will still be able to enjoy Gravity Rush 2's offline modes, starting January 18, 2018 you will no longer be able to send/receive challenges, send/receive treasure hints, send/receive photos ghosts, play ranked lederboards nor acquire dusty tokens/rewards.

Until then Sony will increase the Dusty Tokens drop rate, the in-game currency needed to share photos, complete challenges, and unlock costumes/talismans.

Key Features:

  • Gravity-Based Action –The franchise’s famous gravity-based action mechanics have evolved with two additional styles: Lunar and Jupiter. Players can seamlessly switch between gravity styles in order to unlock a wide range of combat maneuvers.
  • Jump to PS4 – Boasting larger environments, more physics effects and an expanded story, Gravity Rush 2 is a giant leap forward from its predecessor.
  • Vast Open World – Enter a bright and bustling floating city, bursting with life. The colossal, multi-leveled metropolis is packed with an abundance of missions to keep Kat busy.
  • Signature Art Style – France’s “bande dessinée” comic book aesthetic is blended with Japanese manga and anime influences to create a unique and beautiful atmosphere.
