Eagle Flight

Eagle Flight doesn't bring anything new, but everything it offers has been made to appeal virtual reality player. Paris is always a beautiful city to be seen from up above. The sandbox treatment, with missions make the game last more hours, although it also make it a little bit repetitive and we see a lack of modes for the multiplayer.

Simplistic in scope, but oh so satisfying to play. [Issue#182, p.83]

The concept and delivery deserve praise. [Jan 2016, p.115]

Eagle Flight is not a game for everyone because it will appeal rather to more casual players. Nicely done virtual reality and the bird's flight itself are, unfortunately, spoiled by not very imaginative tasks for which the game gives the impression as if it was pushed too hard to speed up the development.

Quotation forthcoming.

Its intuitive controls and convincing sense of speed make it a VR title that other developers will surely be borrowing from. While the multiplayer mode’s thrills will provide some longevity, it’s ultimately only a lack of content that keeps Eagle Flight from being essential.

Eagle Flight is certainly not one of the best experiences available for PSVR, but it is one of the most peculiar. The control system, the sense of speed, the exhilaration of the flight and the style of production manages to create an interesting mix.

Eagle Flight is an excellent game when it comes to flying and going on an adventure in VR. The story-line though, is so thin, it is a big disappointment. Thankfully there is a very entertaining multiplayer mode to keep the fun coming.

Flying around Paris is a great experience, but Eagle Flight is more than that, and also offers proper game mechanics. It can get old a little bit too son, but it has a fair amount of content and even a multiplayer mode.

Eagle Flight is a good VR game, but it's one of those games that wouldn't work otherwise. It's dated visuals and graphic style could be a turnoff to some, but it's challenge level and easy controls make the overall package enjoyable. The feeling of flight does excite the senses, and while it may not be the best title in the Playstation VR line, it's also not even close to being the worst. Pick this one up, especially if you like dogfight games and flight simulators.

At launch, Eagle Flight doesn’t offer enough for the near-full price it charges. Single player isn’t enough to justify a purchase and multiplayer isn’t populous enough to get regular matches. Eagle Flight gets the basics right, flight is great and combat can be full of excitement, the game just doesn’t build much on that strong foundation.

Sort of like that dream you had once about being a bird, but with more feather collecting and fish.

Eagle Flight is a nice and original PlayStation VR experience, but it lacks a bit of variety and content, especially in its multiplayer part, that offers only one game mode.

I first had a lot of fun with Eagle Flight at first, but as I spent more time with the game, the repetitive level design and flawed star system made the game grow stale and frustrating.

The dream of flight becomes reality with PlayStation VR. But the fantasy is a shallow and repetitive one, that you wake up from all too quickly.
