VGChartz's Evan Norris: "Dolmen arrives at a time in the evolution of the Souls-like where innovation or originality or at least technical excellence is required to stand out. While Dolmen adds its own flavor to the proceedings with a focus on eldritch enemies, energy consumption, and projectile combat, it's not enough to distinguish itself. It can't compete with the brilliance of Elden Ring (no shame in that) but it also falls short of other AA sci-fi action-RPGs like The Surge and Hellpoint. Ultimately, it seems less like an offshoot of Dark Souls and more like a proof of concept launched before From Software birthed the sub-genre."
Daily Video Game writes: "Right now, Xbox Store is running a new digital game sale titled "Publisher Spotlight Series" sale that offers huge discounts on various popular games and bundles for Xbox Series X/S and Xbox One gamers!"
That is a steal for Kingdom Come: Royal Edition. One of the most interesting action RPGs to come out in a long time.
Personal recommendations are
The Metro series
Hunt Showdown (though I'm not sure what the player count for the game looks like on Xbox)
Wasteland 3: Calorado Edition (if you don't have Gamepass. The extra content is really worth it).
Especially at those prices.
"Almost a year after Dolmen was announced at a Koch Media preview event, it is finally here. I’ve been anticipating this since I saw it and now I finally get to play it." Brian @ Thumb Culture
XBA says: Another Soulslike, albeit with a sci-fi backdrop and some unique ideas.
