TheSixthAxis writes: Despite being a game that feels as though it’s been designed by committee, Immortals Fenyx Rising seems, on first impressions at least, to be more than the sum of its parts. Here is a game that’s remixes Assassin’s Creed Odyssey with Breath of the Wild in such a blatant way that it’s a wonder that someone from Hyrule isn’t sending them a summons. That obviously won’t happen – perhaps it should be a Greece and desist letter? – but Nintendo should be feeling particularly flattered right now.
Assassin's Creed: The Ezio Collection, Immortals Fenyx Rising, and more at lowest prices ever in Ubisoft August 2023 Switch eShop sale.
Highlights include Tchia, Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection, Ghostwire Tokyo and Immortals Fenyx Rising.
Good month. I recommend PS users to download R6 Extraction. It is seriously a really fun and polished co-op game.

Totally agree. The game got dragged in the review market but, get some friends together and it’s definitely worth a shot. It’s just as good with shooting mechanics as siege but no sweat lords to compete with

I’ve been holding out but I think when they start putting psvr 2 titles on there it’ll be my time to dive in
I was thinking the same thing when I locked in on the deals they had during the last holiday season. I'm normally not a fan of subs but this was so cheap and the likelihood of them adding PSVR2 is pretty high imo. Hopefully within the next 6 months.
It'll happen for sure at some point. They did OG PSVR titles on Plus before. Hopefully they'll be great games that flew under the radar, like The Light Brigade seems to be.

No you don't need to play this... This is outdated, the game mechanics are well known, nothing new at all, really at all, they tried to be funny but I never even smiled once... for little kids yes but not for hard-core gamers or casual gamers that knows assassin's creed open world gameplay.
You can check out the demo yourself through Stadia. No CC or anything obnoxious, just sign up with a Google account and off you go. Side note: I think Steam should have this option for demos, or more companies should do demos this way - no big download, just push a button & off you go. That lack of friction seems perfect for demoing a game.
To the game, it feels...fine enough. I'm not a huge fan of the "jokey" narration, the combat feels pretty good (but kinda hack n slashy), the gear doesn't feel too impactful - at least from what was seen in the demo...I think that it'd be great as a handheld game - the idea of having that on the Switch for short bursts sounds more appealing - but it doesn't scream "need to play" to me. I can certainly see people enjoying it, but it also doesn't strike me as something you have to run out and play at launch or anything. Feels like it'd be a good game to snag on sale.
Played the demo twice on Stadia now and I really like it. Very surprised how good it felt to play via Stadia. But I'm very excited to see how better it will look on a next-gen console with 4K and HDR. Looks like a game that will really pop with HDR so I'm super excited to play the full game in December.
