Atlas Fallen (PS5)

I bought this with a digital code but I wanted to add a review because I loved this game so much that I felt I should leave a review after seeing such mixed reviews and considering how lesser known this game is from a small developer (the same team that made The Surge, although this isn’t like that game). I gave it a chance after seeing Fighting Cowboy’s YouTube review which gave it an 8/10.

First of all, the intro isn’t the best and it can seem a bit confusing with a lot of information and tutorials thrown at you and I was honestly worried that I had made a mistake spending 50 on it but after about 45 mins when the game opens up, the fun really begins. First of all, the world looks beautiful and the art style is great but the most fun comes from the traversal and the combat which are just so much fun and the combat is surprisingly deep with lots to learn and skills to unlock etc. I love how you can keep combos going in the air to the point you can almost fly at times. Getting around by sand surfing is also a lot of fun too and really original for an open world action game like this one, even just exploring the world for collectables and side missions is excellent too and never a chore.

The only real downside is that the story is a bit forgettable but it is fine and the gameplay is just so much fun that I can easily forgive this. This is a hidden gem highly recommended from me 8/10
