It’s got some fun and satisfying combat, a few genuinely novel mechanics, and graphics that range from absolutely gorgeous to a little over the top – but unless its thin story morphs into more than an excuse to go stab stuff, the grindable action-looter structure doesn't seem like it has enough variety to sustain its otherwise expansive customization.”įollow me on Twitter, YouTube and Instagram. IGN – “As of right now, however, I’m enjoying Godfall, even if it’s not doing much to wow me and the repetition of its missions is wearing a bit thin. Whether the combat has to carry the load throughout the entire game remains to be seen, but it just might be up to the task.” Mission design is uninspired thus far, with each one shuffling me from one fight to another with little else in between. Gamespot – “The early signs are promising, then, particularly when it comes to combat. Everything looks the same, be it the architecture, rocks, plants, and even the enemies.” Game Informer – “In my time, I've enjoyed the boss battles and loot, but have grown bored of the three open-world environments, which are small and don't hold much visual flavor. PS5 fans in the UK will have to wait a little longer, as the Counterplay and Gearbox game - as well as the PlayStation 5 itself - launches on November 19.Here are some current thoughts from the reviewers, and we’ll see what the score does as more reviews come in:

Our aim has always been to create a combat experience that feels challenging, encouraging players to leverage the many tools in their arsenal to come out victorious. Ascending the Skybreaker Monolith and defeating Macros’ army will be no small feat. "Players can also expect challenging boss fights that will push their builds to the limit. Leveraging the power of the PS5’s SSD, along with the DualSense controller, the player is really able to FEEL the combat. We sought out to define what a 'looter-slasher' is. Speaking about what PlayStation fans can expect from Godfall, Heyne said: "Players can expect an action combat experience unlike any other. Since then Godfall has appeared at numerous PlayStation events, including the June PS5 reveal event and during the August State of Play broadcast. The new IP was the first PS5 game ever revealed, with the title getting announced at last year's The Game Awards event. With the Godfall release date fast approaching it's only a few weeks till the loot-slasher will be in gamers' hands around the world.

Heyne added: "Now that we’re locked in for a November 12 launch on PS5 and PC, our team is beginning to plan and create content that will be delivered in an expansion releasing later in 2021. But ultimately, we felt if any of the main in-game experience, including the incredible work our artists have poured into development, was gated behind microtransactions, we would be doing a disservice to our players and team." "It was a decision we took seriously and spent quite some time deliberating. Speaking about why Counterplay didn't go down this route, Heyne said: "I wouldn’t say it was a difficult decision.
#GODFALL PS5 UPDATE#
This is something that other games of Godfall's ilk have adopted, and been criticised for. Godfall’s latest update numbered at 5.1.23 brings a bunch of tweaks and gameplay fixes, but specifically for PS5 players, it also adds support for variable refresh rate or VRR.
