![]() We’re also equipped with a sword and a few extra powers, more of which can be unlocked by using the gained XP. A full frontal shotgun blast to an enemies face might spray a lot of claret but they’ll still be in one piece and fighting back until we hit them a few more times. We’re given access to three guns (machine, shotgun, and pistol) that all have a good heft to the feel for my liking, though the damage they output doesn’t quite line up. ![]() The combat areas are generally quite small too, so strafing and using the dodge roll are a must. There’s a lot of back peddling and jumping while unleashing round after round of bullets at the incoming threats. It makes a good case for the Series X’s SSD for sure.Įnemies come thick and fast and the gameplay recalls classic arena shooters such as Doom or Quake in its pace and relentlessness. From cold boot to action is about 20 seconds, and re-starts are a matter of seconds at most. I’ll also mention the load times here quickly they are fast. I wouldn’t say this as a bad thing necessarily as it almost felt like I’d stepped back in time to seeing those huge, next gen arcade cabinets and wishing I had something like that at home well, now I do! When it comes to the in game action though things look just great, with a lot of flashy effects complimenting the fast gun and sword play – there’s barely a moment to stop and take it all in. The visuals are sharp and full of effects and filters that give it an almost Crysis vibe, while the character models look like something from early 2000’s era Time Crisis. What this is though is a solid, if short, taster of what we can expect from FYQD Studio down the line.Īs the first exclusively next gen title – only playable on a Series X or S – initial impressions are a bit mixed. The title that blew us away with its face paced action and visual’s is coming later on. Let’s get it out of the way from the off: this is not Bright Memory: Infinite.
