The Pathless is surely the most ambitious project so far from Giant Squid and delivers thrilling gameplay elements that shine especially during boss fights. The often empty worlds and repetitive tasks are a bit of letdown but this game should still not be missing in everyones PS5 Library

The Pathless is a gorgeous adventure with an entertaining traversal mechanic and a subtle but effective narrative. Running, jumping, and gliding around with your eagle friend while solving enigmatic puzzles is a real joy. While some lackluster stealth sections and difficulty maneuvering during some boss sections are present, it doesn’t take away from the overall experience. Whatever direction you decide to travel, The Pathless leads you to some special gaming moments.
