    To put it straight, Steelrising has won us over. Of course, the challenge might be a bit too easy for the fans of the genre, but Spiders' title opens the door to newcomers who want to try souls-like games, while remaining quite demanding. The universe is coherent and convincing, this uchronic Paris in the grip of the flames coupled to the madness of its ruler is as exciting to discover as it is dark and oppressive. Aegis and the emblematic personalities of this era participate to a pleasant scenario to follow, even if it lacks a little touch of epic and despite a convincing O.S.T.. A well-oiled adventure, close to be one of our favorite, congratulations Spiders!

The art direction is fantastic. The upgrades (weapons and stat points) are what you'd expect from this gametype, and seem solid. There are metroidvania elements that are also fun (unlocking various tools and abilities that further open the map up). For a $50 game, I'm enjoying this immensely.… Full Review »
