Chorus Reviews
It's a different game with fun combats, but the plot, structure and some technical issues don't let it shine.

If you can look past the flaws, there are some real highs in the kinetic brilliance on display in the fight and flight element of Chorus, making it worth considering, even if it can’t be wholeheartedly recommended based on all elements of the game.
Chorus seems to have everything. An exciting story about revenge and coming to terms with yourself, beautiful varied environments where there is more than enough to do and a combat system that is always refreshing and forces you to adjust the tactics.

Chorus is full of great ideas that some are executed properly and some are not, and while the visuals look solid, they aren't exactly "new generation", and eventually prevent the game from being a hit.

A really good choice for space combat games' fans.

Chorus escapes from that arcade formula of independent space battles to offer us a story that justifies each of the actions we take. Our epic on the back of the Forsaken ship leaves us with a sweet aftertaste, believing in the great possibilities that this studio will be able to achieve if it continues to refine this game formula, although we cannot forget its problems, which do not weigh down the experience.

Chorus is a fun experience that offers a smooth and elaborate gaming system with beautiful graphics and unique melodies but has suffered some negatives that have had an impact on the final evaluation, an experience that we recommend from those looking for a pure gaming experience away from storytelling and diversity of content.

Chorus' ambitious and frenetic space combat makes for some satisfying dogfights, but its convoluted story doesn't stick the landing.
Some writing oddities aside, Chorus is a wonderful return to form for the genre.
Chorus is a great game that just doesn’t quite meet its full potential. The amazing story setup doesn’t manage to hit the mark, with lacklustre characters and underwhelming emotional moments. One the other hand, the combat is definitely worth getting into, with some fantastically smooth controls once you get used to them. Fishlabs’ first attempt at a bigger-budgeted game ended up being a good one, and this is worth checking out if you’re in need of a substitute for the Rogue Squadron series of games.
Chorus is a worthy Space Shooter, with a very enjoyable gameplay, even if gets repetitive at some point. The real let down is the story which is quite boring, and told through weird means, like the inaudible thaughts of Nara. But there is a demo available, so try it before you buy it !

If you’re a fan of space combat and can push your way through the first couple hours, I’m fairly confident you’ll find a lot to like in Chorus. The core dogfighting is just plain fun, and the setpiece fights are something to see. If you’re not already a genre fan, however, I’m not entirely sure this will be the game to win you over.
A space shooter with incredibly fun and addictive dogfights that you might forget the game even comes with a story.
At its best moments, Chorus is an intense space fighter that takes you to some gorgeous locations. However, the weak plot and technical issues hold it back from its full potential.
Chorus is an exceptional space shooter, especially when it comes to the gameplay. It has such tight controls it’s ridiculous. Once you add in the superhuman powers and an incredible universe to explore, then there is even more fun to be had here. The one problem however, is the narrative. Even though it’s a lot of fun to play, there just isn’t enough story content to drive you on, leaving the player feeling empty well before the credits roll.
While Chorus lacks a more deft approach in telling its story, its gameplay more than makes up for it. The game provides a nice sandbox experience to explore a beautifully realised cosmos, with different-looking systems to explore to add some nice variety.
Chorus is one of the biggest surprises of the year. With a great story, excellent world-building, tight movement, thrilling combat, and rewarding progression, this is one of the most enjoyable space shooters I've played in quite some time.
Chorus is a good mix for those who enjoy the science fiction genre, as well as a great choice for those who love action games with a lot of combat, agility and challenge. Easily one of the best of the year for those looking for action in the space pilot genre.

Chorus gives you fun and flashy superpowers that make its space dogfights stand out, along with its strong main characters and beautiful scenery.
Chorus does an admirable job of trying to carve out its own identity in a genre that deserves the attention, but it just doesn't stick the landing. If you're a fan of arcade spaceship shooters and narrative adventures there's probably enough here to chew over, but there's just not much that Chorus has to offer that hasn't already been done better elsewhere. Despite being set in a gorgeous pocket of space and offering up some interesting ideas it sadly misses the mark in just about every way.
