A very solid experience that didn't overstay its welcome and didn't feel like it was wasting my time. I always appreciate a game that knows exactly when to raise the stakes and when to come to its conclusion.

At times the game felt like a demo for how future games could look. It is beyond stunning to look at on my PS5 and from the graphical point of view feels like the future of where games can go.

Perhaps my favourite thing about the game is the thing I was a bit apprehensive about, namely how parkour is handled. Having jumping and climbing be totally relegated to button prompts sounded limiting, but in reality traversing the game felt smooth and eloquent. I never felt with its traversing that I was being fucked over by bad gameplay.

I won't go higher than 4 stars because whilst there's nothing particularly wrong with the game I cannot say it's a game that's gonna stick with me long term and will probably never play again. Again, the game feels almost more a promise for what future games can and will look like and while there was nothing bad about the gameplay there was nothing exceptionally great about it either. It is still however incredibly solid and worth a look at.
