VGChartz's Evan Norris: "Overall, Afterlife is a solid entry in the Souls-like sub-genre and the very best version of Death's Gambit you can own. It's packed with content, both old and new, and features engaging combat, dangerous exploration, and varied boss battles. Its narrative runs out of steam towards the end, some of its mechanical experiments don't stick the landing, and exploring can be tedious at times, but in general Death's Gambit: Afterlife provides everything you'd expect from a 2D action-RPG in the Souls mold."
The Epic Games Store continues their giving ways with a free game and some more free DLC for you.
Half-Glass Gaming: "If you're looking for something to play now that you've conquered The Lands Between in Elden Ring, here are five great games with rich worlds, bosses, and lore to discover."
Returnal
Sifu
Doom Eternal on Hard (aka Ultra Violence)
Horizon 2 on Very Hard
Last of Us series on Very Very Hard (aka Grounded, appropriately named…)
Uncharted Series on Very Very Hard (aka Crushing)
Halo Infinite on Very Hard (aka Legendary, also appropriately named…)
Gears series on Insane (bring a friend)
Batman Arkham City on Hard (and remove the counter prompts… GL)
RE Village on Hard
MGSV without enemy markers and “reflex shot” (and forgo the tranq gun and still try to stay no lethal, if you think you’re Boss 🤙).
Control (only one difficulty, so it ain’t easy)
Ninja Gaiden
Vanquish
Really most decent games become Souls-esque once you go above normal mode. Alotta devs balance them well, so they are worth exploring if you need more Souls challenge.
