    Fantastic game and a total steal at only $40. Definitely has AAA value. Runs great on my PS4 Pro, aside from the occasional audio hiccup. I've been pretty addicted, played about 30 hours over the weekend. Not nearly as punishing as Bloodborne, which makes it a lot more relaxing to play.

Runs great on my PS4 Pro, aside from the occasional audio hiccup. I've been pretty addicted, played about 30 hours over the weekend. Not nearly as punishing as Bloodborne, which makes it a lot more relaxing to play. You dont lose anything if you die -- you just start over at the last checkpoint and enemies respawn with some variation in placement.
    I have only played solo, and the difficulty has been very fair and balanced. Bosses are a challenge, but definitely do-able for solo players. I've heard complaints that bosses have too many mobs for a solo player to handle, but this hasn't really been an issue for me after the 6 or 7 boss fights I've finished.
    Maps and settings are all interesting and varied -- devs did a fantastic job building fascinating worlds to explore. It's hard to believe that the maps are dynamically generated because they are so streamlined. I'm excited for my next playthrough to see how rerolling the campaign works out.
    Only negatives are with the loot system. The game doesn't give you much new gear. Occasionally you'll find a weapon hidden in dungeons, but I havent come across anything better than my starting gear I've kept upgraded. As far as I can tell, there is no way to dismantle or sell unwanted gear either, which is a little unfortunate. However, upgrade materials and currency are generously-available in the world via chests, destructables, and enemy drops.    … Expand

    Amazing addicting game. Borrows from souls but is not a souls game.. Combat is so damn fun and satisfying and the more you progress the more cool weopons and attacks you discover.. The game is paced and ballaced great, its challenging at times, but never even close to feeling unfair...

    Dark souls from the world of Stalker Shadow of Chernobyl , Metro 2033, not even ardent fans of the souls series - recommended
    the presence of a fatty layer of role - in stock.
    unique, atmospheric, unambiguous - new experience

    Great game. It reminds me of dark souls but the gun play is absolutely solid and mods added make the guns more fun to use!

    I had been mulling over whether or not to play this game for a while. I dont play a lot of co-op games but a couple of friends of mine are always wanting for us to play together, so I suggested this while it was on PS+.

    It took a little while for my friends to warm up to it, while I was thoroughly enjoying it from the first minute. It didnt take long though and both of my mates (who are regular co-op game players) were all having a great time with the game.

    The graphics and music are okay... probably a little above average, and the sound effects are better, helping to deliver a proper impact when your bullets etc. connect with an enemy. It is the gameplay where the game truly shines though, it all just flows extremely well and with the exception of being unable to 'shoot-from-the-hip' (the main frustration my friends encountered during our first session) it all controls precisely as you would want a third-person shooter to do so.

    It is easily both, the best game I have played so far this year... and the best co-op game I have ever played. My friends also rated it extremely highly in the vast list of co-op games that they have played. An absolute hidden gem of a game and I so hope that Gunfire Games will make a sequel one day.    … Expand

    This is like a great mix between Bloodborne, Dark Souls, and Lost Planet games. Very varied environments, enemies, and strategies makes for an unforgettable experience. I haven't had this much fun in years thanks to the co-op. I thoroughly recommend joining the friendly discord community if you want to find "random" players to join you in your endeavors. Don't miss this.

It's tough but aren't these games supposed to be? Bad reviews probably are just frustrated at its difficulty but really is nothing more difficult then any souls game. GET GUD...… Expand

    I bought it because I liked the gameplay of streamed videos and don't regret it. It's fun in multiplayer with a buddy or just helping other players. Playing alone is really challenging. Make use of the mods with the right weapons to defeat bosses (and work together). In my opinion you need to use different strategies for bosses.

    I highly recommend Remnant from the ashes.

    Good game, they keep it simple, the mechanics are simple and the gameplay is smooth. Difficulty it's up to the player. You enjoy just shooting and punching enemies, plus it's absolutely replayable.

    This is a game I keep going back to and still always have something new to discover. The gameplay may be simple but it’s never grown old. In my opinion it’s one of the best coop games out there.

    As a fan of these kinds of games, I can say that Remnant: From the Ashes is a type of soulslike that I would have probably passed over in favor of something more traditional, but after giving it a fair shot I’m glad to say that it’s the successful spin on the genre that I didn’t know I wanted.

    Remnant: From the Ashes is a brilliant game that will undoubtedly satisfy the masochistic urges of all those Souls-Like (really can't apologise enough) fanatics out there that need their next fix of brutal punishment in the form of a video game. The game is let down by a few minor faults and won't provide the same amount of gameplay that the majority of Souls games deliver to players, but the positives of this game far outweigh its negatives and the ability to replay it and take it on with friends negate the admittedly short standard campaign time.

    Remnant: From the Ashes is an entertaining and challenging game, that also give us some options to try its gameplay and challenge its enemies. However, you should not forget that it's mainly a coop game, and playing alone can be tough or even frustrating for the most part of the journey.
