Risen 3: Titan Lords - Enhanced Edition

It looks great, has a unique theme, a fun world to explore, and is hilarious at times, all while offering a very solid, lengthy, and competent quest. Just be sure to know that sometimes it will make you feel like walking the planks with its handful of minor annoyances and issues.

Risen 3: Titan Lords - Enhanced Edition is a charming RPG full of things to do, showing up on the PlayStation 4 as the best console version. However the task of remastering is not optimal, the frame rate is fickle and graphical improvements can not hide the limits of a graphics engine overtaken by more recent productions. Combat system is still problematic, undermined by lag and questionable choices, and various bugs that affect the quality of gameplay. If you are willing to tolerate the limitations of lower production, and perhaps you have also appreciated Risen 2: Dark Waters, you may find satisfaction in this third installment.

Risen 3: Titan Lords Enhanced Edition is fun, but that's about it. If you're still hooked on a game like The Witcher 3, leave this one alone. If you're looking for a new RPG experience however, give it a go.

Risen 3 is a simple budget price port. The game is passable, but suffers a poor technical in an arena where the competition is fierce.

There is fun to be had here, but honestly, you have to be willing to overlook some pretty major issues to get the best from this charming but undeniably mediocre RPG.

As a game it simply works, but as an enhanced edition, it fails to fix many of the issues the original game had. There are better options on PS4, and Risen 3 has missed its opportunity to get closer to them.

Risen 3: Titan Lords Enhanced Edition is a game that feels like a massive missed opportunity.

Lovely visuals cannot save Risen 3 from falling way short in the overall quality stakes.

Thanks to a story that gets a bit confusing, boring combat, and poor animations, Risen 3 is simply not a good game. The huge worlds, beautiful visuals, and large number of character skills do fight hard to make the RPG worth your money, but in the end, I think it’s a game that most likely should be avoided.

Sadly, there's nothing really enhanced in this version.

Enhanced as it may be, Risen 3: Titan Lords is still a very rough experience with too many problems that outweigh its merits.

Risen 3: Titan Lords Enhanced Edition is an outdated game, with tons of problems, a flawed combat system and some inexplicable game design choices. The atrocious porting for PS4 is the (bad) icing on the cake.

In a perfect world, remasters and enhanced editions would be reserved for games that fall into one of two categories: classics and underappreciated gems. Unfortunately, Risen 3: Titan Lords - Enhanced Edition is neither.

Risen 3: Titan Lords – Enhanced Edition carries the original game's problems to the next-gen. One mistake after another, that would need many, many months of updates to make it worth your spare time.
