Action RPG fans should be paying attention – Shadows: Awakening is a surprisingly refreshing take on the genre, bringing some much needed new ideas and mechanics to the table. Whilst some hit better than others, developer’s Game Farm should be commended for trying to do something new here.
TSA writes: "While many dungeon crawlers feel too shackled by emulating the genre’s greats to have their own identity, others seek to change everything, losing some of the features that many fans have grown attached in the process. It seems we are waiting for a game that’s somewhere between the two, with a modern engine and impactful gameplay that keeps and innovates upon systems that many consider a staple of the Diablo’s greatest flatterers. At first glance, Shadows: Awakening seems to fit that bill."
The Shadows Awakening Legendary Armor Pack and The Chormaton Chronicles DLC is now available to download on PS4 and Xbox One.
Player 2 reviews Shadows: Awakening, a brand new ARPG that features the voice talents of the legendary Tom Baker.
I really like the look of this game, but man did they pick the wrong time of year to release it. This would be a perfect April or May game.
