Immortals Fenyx Rising, Ubisoft's latest AAA title of year 2020 is a great one. Combination of a lovely story, addictive gameplay and breathtaking Sound/visual design, makes it so much fun. Even though the game suffers from some creative freedom and technical issues, but playing it still is so much fun and skipping it, won't be a big deal for sure.

Immortals Fenyx Rising is a charming and fun adventure into Greek mythology with Ubisoft's trademark core design elements thrown in to support the experience. It is a worthwhile adventure for those looking to scratch that Breath of the Wild itch, but one that experienced Ubisoft fans may feel is a little too familiar.

Immortals Fenyx Rising is a fantastic mix of fun adventures and comical storytelling. The ideas are borrowed from other games, but they are well implemented.

A game that amazed me with the beauty of the open world, a world that makes you thirsty all the time to explore more and more to see the changing regions and the huge statues that are distinctive signs that make you feel the beauty of the world, despite the long boring story dialogue and damp squib jokes, I enjoyed every minute I spent with every mystery, fight, ruins, and Rift I searched for something new.

Before I end this review, one very important thing I want to talk about is the game’s very end section. The final section of this game is very, very, incredible. It will force you to remember everything you’ve learned about the game thus far. Every mechanic, every puzzle solved, every enemy encountered. It’s a very fantastic way of closing off a fantastic game. I had an incredible time playing this game, and I can say with confidence that if you enjoy RPGs that put forth exploration and have great campaigns, you will have an incredible time playing this game too.

From the more simplified and streamlined combat and upgrade systems to the lack of weapons and gear deterioration, Fenyx Rising allows players to simply focus on the journey and all the joy and sense of wonder that comes with it. With the year we've all had in 2020, I don't know what more gamers could ask for from a new IP in an industry consistently drowning in an ocean or reboots, remakes, and remasters.

There’s a particular value in this work, a source of optimism, humor and joy emerging from a non-Nintendo developer at a time when it might be needed most. The world is an ugly place, but Immortals wants to remind us there are good parts, too.

Immortals Fenyx Rising takes what may have seemed like a mundane concept and created an open-world adventure game that relishes in Greek lore and comedy all while providing great combat and solid puzzles.

Immortals Fenyx Rising is a beautiful game that doesn't shy away from its inspirations. It borrows heavily from The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild while still introducing its own unique aspects.

Having played several gritty and faintly depressing games recently, Immortals certainly brings the fun and offers a breath of virtual fresh air. The story is not revolutionary but does contain a few surprises and leans into some of the weirdness of Greek Mythology with gleeful enthusiasm. It’s a big game too, full of variety and pleasantly light on filler. My playthrough took around 40 hours and I still have plenty of side-content to go back to and I probably will (which is far from common for me). It borrows from the best including BotW but also brings a scattering of new ideas and let’s not overlook this, it’s available on all platforms for everyone to enjoy. It’s a suitably epic adventure with plenty to enjoy just as long as you can look (or rather, listen) past the narration. With a few tweaks and a better script, a sequel could become a classic.

Immortals Fenyx Rising despite having a fun combat system, a wonderful world that desreves exploring, regradless of all that the game is a victim of shallow content, messy storytelling, wavering rhythm in its events, it could have a better game if the game had a deeper RPG system, rewards and treasures with more value rather than being just a decoration.

I could probably harp on about Immortals for another few thousand words, but I’ll save you the rant. I will, however, leave you with this: Immortals Fenyx Rising is really good. The humour may not be for everyone, but there’s a ton more here than you might expect, and I think it’s worth your time if you’re into open-world action-adventure games. It may not bring much new to the table, but it’s a 30-50 hour journey that I’m super happy I went on – and you should too.

Immortals Fenyx Rising is a refreshing mix between Assassin's Creed and Breath of the Wild. The cartoon style gives it a unique look, while the game combines Greek mythology with puzzles, battling epic enemies, and next-gen looks. The open world is one to remember, but the narration is one to forget at times. All said and done, this is a game that is not perfect, but deserves a spot between the big releases and definitely a spot in your console!

Immortals Fenyx Rising‘s gameplay loop is addictive and engaging. However, the lack of character development and the myriad of crashes, graphical glitches, and loading bugs holds the game back from its true potential.

Immortals Fenyx Rising is a title fit to amaze, even though its production doesn’t aim to innovate the genre by using other open world titles as an inspiration. At the end of the day it is a fresh surprise though, which puts together a fitfull of events and things to do by leaning on a fluid and fun gameplay and by uniting classic types of combat to different puzzle-centred moments. Overall, the game experience is very convincing and allows the player to spend more than a few hours in mesmerizing lands characterized by vivid colours and reminders of greek myths.

Visually, Immortals: Fenyx Rising is just as charming as its dialogue. It’s best described as a mix between Breath of the Wild and Fortnite. The result is a charming, colourful palette that really brings the world to life in a cartoonish way. On PlayStation 5

Taking about twenty-five hours to complete, Immortals Fenyx Rising was a fun experience with some enjoyable combat, great humor, and some interesting puzzles. While I do wish it was a little less heavy on the puzzle side of things, it is refreshing to see compared to the standard combat-heavy games of this type. I had a great time with this. I do think that the humor will make or break it for some people, but as long as no-one goes into this expecting something similar to one of Ubisoft’s more serious titles, I doubt they’ll be disappointed.
