In addition, the way you upgrade abilities has changed, with players now being able to customize an ability loadout in a way that's vaguely similar to Hollow Knight, and there are now shops, mini-quests, and even a trading quest like the one in The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening. Gone is the first game's ability to create your own save points by expending magical energy, with this game simply returning you to a nearby area after a death. The gameplay here has a few distinct changes from the first game as well. And this is paired with yet another soundtrack that's heart-wrenchingly beautiful, with wonderful vocals and instrumental themes. All of this on top of the first game's already incredibly smooth animations, extremely detailed and animated environments, and beautiful use of color. Where the first game was upon release quite possibly the most beautiful 2D game ever made, the sequel actually tops it in numerous ways, with some truly gorgeous lighting effects, interactive environments, and water effects. Having said that, Ori and the Will of the Wisps is nevertheless an absolutely gorgeous game, a feast for the eyes and ears for virtually every second you're playing it. Suffice it to say, if you want this game to look its best, you'll want to play it on your Xbox One or PC. While the visuals in the first Ori game was actually improved in the Nintendo Switch version, making it the definitive version of the game, Ori and the Will of the Wisps is a different story, featuring backgrounds with noticeable distortions due to lower-resolution visuals than the Xbox One version made even more striking with the way the game displays depth of field blur effects, something that becomes even more noticeable in handheld mode. Driven apart, Ori tries to find his way back to Ku while also helping the island's inhabitants. While helping ku learn how to fly, Ori and Ku find themselves crashing on an island in the midst of a storm. Picking up after the events of the first game, Ori and the Will of the Wisps finds Ori as a foster parent of sorts to an owlet hatchling, Ku. Ori and the Will of the Wisps is the second game in the Ori series, with this entry originally seeing release on the Xbox One and PC in early 2020 and coming to the Nintendo Switch later the same year. Note: This game is included in the Ori: The Collection bundle along with Ori and the Blind Forest: Definitive Edition.
