Aug 6, 2025It all comes together to make a game that is definitely on the right track. While the lack of roguelike elements might mean I don’t play this game quite as much as I do the original, Descenders Next shows that the series is still the pinnacle of momentum-based gameplay. Going downhill fast has never been so much fun. [Early Access Review]

Jul 21, 2025Indeed, much like the original Descenders, Descenders Next is already an incredibly addictive and enjoyable game, one that transports this really sweet game formula into a whole new extreme sport style. There’s already a high variety included and plenty of unlocks to go for, though many of the game’s sports and features are yet to arrive. But the first Descenders was a game I kept going back to for years, just keeping it installed on my console and sometimes going back for a single run, or for hours at a time. This sequel is already setting up to be one of the next Game Pass addictions for me and many other gamers out there, and I’m excited to see what Descenders Next’s future bring us. The transformation for Descenders worked, and this Game Preview version is already a very strong starting point – go check it out, will ya? [Review in Progress score = 82]
