    Can't believe these are the same guys who made games like Prey and Dishonored. Major disappointment.

    An empty, depressing mess of a game. Combat feels awful. Cutscenes don't animate. Characters are soulless. Ai is braindead. Bugs galore. I just... what happened?! The Saints Row reboot has company at the bottom of the barrel.

    Bethesda really outdid themselves with their agenda of releasing utterly broken games. This one doesn't even work at all.

    It's a decent game wrapped in a whole load of issues, issues I honestly believe can and will be fixed in the up coming days, weeks and months. A nice big open world with some solid gunplay, but, I honestly think if this game was made by any other developers it would score much better. I tip my hat to Arkane for trying something new and different to their other games.

    The game is disgusting, the textures do not load, many bugs, it crashes, the gunplay is crap, graphics are horrible the worst game in Bethesda by far.

    Ha d this come out on the 360 it would of still only rated a 4 or 5. The textures and bland colours with no details, enemy AI seems to of been ported from a megadrive game. 30 fps seems to be the goal and not the actual running rate. Disclaimers on the box stating 60 fps performance mode due at a later date so they dont get sued due to it stating 60 fos on the front of the box art.

    This release has done way more damage than just delaying. Its a gamepads game so there was no benefit to launching unfinished other than to pull the team off this and onto the next project but that has just tainted the name of the development house, microsoft and probably lost subs for gamepass. Above and beyond all of that, they are charging AAA prices for this if you dont get it on gamepass.

    I cant stress enough not to buy this, it will just have them continue to release unfinished and sub standard games. Trust me when I say this game will be abandoned by the development team or at best a couple of people will be left to push out mediocre patches with no content and fixes that will just create more bugs.

    Actually a fun game that was released months before getting finished.

    + Excellent shooting gameplay when foes AI is working normally, gorgeus visuals and atmosphere in general, excellent multuplayer.

    - Broken AI, bad optimization (30 fps is not cool for FPS), not enough content, bad inventory/looting system.

    Hope someday it will be fixed and re-released under updated title.

    I’m having a lot of fun with it. Definitely has some problems that are hopefully fixed with patches soon. I dont recommend buying it right now but I recommend trying it out on game pass and see if you like it for yourself.

    The new Masterpiece from Xbox Game Studios is here.
    Xbox is known for great genre bending first party games that will be considered big GOTY Contenter on any Site. Halo 4/5 , Gears 4 , Crackdown 3 , Sea of Thieves , Scalebound or Recore are all known to be the best games in their Genre.
    With Redfall wie probably have or GOTY 2023 this early in the Year. The Graphics are Breathtaking

    With Redfall wie probably have or GOTY 2023 this early in the Year. The Graphics are Breathtaking and make games like Horizon : Forbidden West or The Last of Us Part 1/2 look like PS3 games. The Details are amazing and the Gunplay is some of the best i've ever seen. The AI is stellar. The Story is left me Breathless throughout the entire game with very interesting twist and turns. This clearly there magnum opus and i have no idea how they can beat it. Redfall has some of the best Level Design you will ever seen.

    This is by far the best Game Arkane has ever made its one of the most detailed OW games i've seen in my Life. Rockstar will have a hard time to match that with the upcoming GTA VI. They really pulled it off. All bets are off now the Sky is the limit for Xbox Game Studios and the Future never looked Brighter.

    El juego no solo tiene un terrible argumento si no que también se ve terrible, que el desarrollador apunte a gráficos caricaturescos? Esta bien, pero no es escusa para descuidar totalmente el apartado gráfico, texturas, sombras, todo, la verdad se ve el poco empeño que se puso en todo el juego, eso sin hablar de lo terriblemente absurda es la IA

    Muy decepcionante. Tecnicamente es digno de generaciones pasadas. Es un juego 100% de game pass, nadie en su sano juicio pagaria por esto.

    This game has the worst AI I’ve ever seen. It’s beyond laughable what Arkane has put out into the world here, and Xbox needs to be ashamed. It runs terribly on PC, I assume because of Denuvo and horrible optimization. There are hardly any enemies in the world , and the combat is pitiful. Clunky guns, janky movement. It’s all bad. Save your money and time. Not even worth playing on Game Pass.

    Sin ser un juego perfecto, porque no lo es, la historia y la inmersión es de mucha calidad y se disfruta mucho jugarlo, es muy divertido. Los únicos fallos que tiene son los 30fps,la IA que deja un poco que desear y el fallo de texturas de vez en cuando. Yo lo seguiré jugando por el momento.

    This a well sized open world. Storyline is pretty good. I like the art style and movement and gunplay are pretty good. I’m only going to solo so my is based on that.

    Easily the worst game released in 2023 so far. Arkane have always been a mid studio but they hit a new low with Redfall and the fact Microsoft thought this was ok for release shows you how much they care about gaming, Just awful

    I loved the game. Super fun, and it had the benefit of working on the PC (Unlike Jedi Survivor).

    Especially fun to play with a friend. I don't really get the hate unless people had some crazy high expectations. I didn't. And it delivered.

Horrible world design with empty lifeless areas, awful dated graphics with no proper textures or detail, which makes the entire game world look like it's graphically not finished yet, like playing an early access beta. There's little to no story, and the small bits of story you get are told with still images! no proper cutscenes (proof that all the promo material was just that) Even the core of the game itself, the gameplay, is just horrble! Enemy A.I is all over the place and barely functions, combat is dull and repetitive, even your chosen character moves controls like sh*t running feels like sliding along the ground! add to all of this, the mulitude of bugs and awful performance and you have a game that does'nt just feel unfinished, it feels like it's years away from finished at best and even then the foundation of the game is still bad. It's just very lazy game design. Expand

    Played this and the gunplay isn't too bad, I dont mind the 30 fps. It looks sooo last gen. And then it also the SP sucks as well as the MP. They should have just stuck to Single Player AAA like Prey or Dishonoured type games. That would have been much better than this.

    Just a defective game made by Arkane. xbox is litterly dead after this i think. they ruin everything

    It's incredibly disappointing that a once-great studio like Arkane has released such a weak game like Redfall. It's unclear what kind of game they were trying to make, as none of its aspects work properly, whether you're playing solo or co-op.

Do NOT pay $70 for this game I actually would recommend you play it for free on gamepass just not now give it a few months when maybe every issue is fixed with the bugs then it might be a little fun to play unlike now. Not fun, not exciting, not really anything uninstall. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Phil Spencer is a disgusting snake oil salesman. He’s dug Microsoft so deep into the ground I don’t know if they can crawl out. He values a terrible monthly subscription over good games. He pushed this monstrous title out the door so gamepass subscribers would actually have a “AAA” game. What a freak. Fire him!!! Expand

    Honestly, my only issue with game is the Ai which hopefully will be fixed soon. I play on Series X and I haven't come across any bugs after 4 hours of playing the game and having fun with it. The variety of weapons, characters and the game's atmosphere are great.

    The result is a game with no identity of its own. Redfall simultaneously wants to be a looter shooter like Borderlands, in an open world like Fallout's, with action like Dying light and a lengthy multiplayer experience like Destiny. But it fails on all counts. The game environments are bleakly empty, the gameplay is wooden. Like the vampires from the world of Redfall, the game has no soul.

    Sadly, Redfall had unbelievable potential and a dynamic studio behind this that is known for quality gaming, but under delivered at quite literally almost every facet of the game. Redfall, unfortunately, should be avoided, and in fact, I hope that the industry starts taking a look at these games and starts evaluating its processes, because if you're only as good as your last game, then Arkane isn't looking good at all.

    Redfall has the potential to be a good game, but it has a bunch of issues that need fixing first.
