Nov 12, 2024Unknown 9: Awakening is a promising start for a new series once you learn to love its combat.
-
Oct 17, 2024Unknown 9: Awakening is a good debut from a first-time development team. This narrative-driven action-adventure has some rough edges but the beautiful locations, intriguing narrative, and well-written characters make it hard to put down. The gameplay doesn’t evolve much but the entertaining stealth mechanics add a lot of variety to the skirmishes you find yourself in. Overall, this is a compelling new IP with lots of potential for future adventures.

Oct 17, 2024An adventure with a strong emphasis on narrative, plagued by a far from optimal technical side but more engaging than you might believe.

Oct 17, 2024Unknown 9: Awakening is a single-player adventure with enormous potential, mixing stimulating gameplay and a mysterious universe. The game offers some very memorable moments, but the average graphics and poor performance prevent it from being one of the most enjoyable experiences of the year.

Oct 18, 2024Unknown 9: Awakening boasts great combat and an ambitious story, but performance issues are too many to look past.

Oct 17, 2024There's potential in Unknown 9: Awakening. The story and setting are fascinating, since so few games are set at the cusp of World War I. Haroona's powers add an enthralling wrinkle to the stealth and combat systems. The experience falls apart when you scrutinize some of these gameplay mechanics, and the bad bugs and mediocre presentation heavily reduce the game's potential. Give it a few patches, and maybe the title will end up being a guilty pleasure for those looking for a straightforward adventure game, but don't expect to uncover a hidden masterpiece.

Oct 17, 2024Unknown 9: Awakening is the video game adaptation of a larger scale project that incorporates other ways of content; and unfortunately falls short. On paper, the proposals seem intriguing, but they have gaps and fail to stand out. It has generic combat, a story that doesn't look interesting and graphics from two generations ago, the fact that Anya Chalotra plays the protagonist couldn't even save it.
