    Let Them Come: Onslaught thrusts you into the chaos of retro sci-fi action, where bullet heaven gameplay meets explosive firepower and evolving strategy. Face an alien onslaught with an arsenal of outrageous weapons—from flamethrowers and Photon Sabers to orbital strikes.

    Each run is a fresh chance to craft your perfect build, stacking devastating upgrades and tailoring your playstyle for crowd control, precision, or pure destruction.

    Earn rewards, unlock new skills, and master unstoppable combos as you push deeper into enemy territory.

    No two runs are the same, and survival means experimenting with weapon synergies and refining your approach until nothing stands in your way!

    Set to a pulsing synth-driven soundtrack by Cartridge 87, this demo delivers just a taste of the whole experience: high-octane gameplay, dynamic progression, and an intense power curve that rewards skill and strategy.

    Let Them Come: Onslaught doesn’t quite hit the heights of its source material and inspiration, but it is a good, challenging blast nonetheless.

    Let Them Come: Onslaught is a quality bullet heaven experience. It offers a lovely art style, an exciting soundtrack and an intense difficulty with well-designed level progression. It is, however, a bit on the short side, with only 4 levels, 2 characters and not a huge build variety. It’s a game that is quite close to greatness, but it will need a bit more content to truly become an unmissable classic survivors-like experience. I still feel like recommending it to fans of the genre, as its gameplay loop is one of the best ones on Xbox right now.

    An enjoyable and addictive survivors-like bullet-heaven auto-shooter, Let Them Come: Onslaught will eat up a good few hours, but with only two characters and four levels, you will be desperate for more.

    Let Then Come: Onslaught brings an arcade-action experience to console, but unfortunately, it can only be appreciated in short bursts.
