it manages to live up to expectations. Here's the
Launch Trailer along with a description:
Razputin “Raz” Aquato,
trained acrobat and powerful young psychic, has realized his lifelong dream of
joining the international psychic espionage organization known as the

been the same since he was rescued from a kidnapping, and what's worse, there's
a mole hiding in headquarters.
Combining quirky missions and mysterious conspiracies, Psychonauts 2 is a

quest to defeat a murderous psychic villain.
