    It’s hard to ignore this spin-off’s squandered potential – or the deafening silence of Midgard. While we have great fun mixing and matching a wealth of combat options, we can’t recommend it based on that single verse when this game boasts an epic poem’s price tag. [Issue#21, p.83]

The haptic triggers on PS5 are ridiculously fun, especially the dual-wielded SMGs. If you have even a passing interest in FPS games this is a must buy!… Full Review »

    The game feels great to play, almost all the weapons are fun to use, most of the enemies are fun to fight or at least satisfying to kill, and the level design feels intuitive and rarely leaves you scratching your head on where you're supposed to go next (although some of the collectables are a pain if you're a 100% kind of person.)

    The only real downside in my opinion is the game peaks about midway through then coasts on a baseline of extremely enjoyable run and gun action but never really evolves in the latter half; the levels remain interesting and fun to clear but you're really just doing the same thing over and over.

    Also, the movement tech like double jump and dashing should have been unlocked from the start, or at least way earlier in the game, once you have them you can feel that that's how the game is intended to be played.    … Full Review »
