Returnal – Die, Die Again! (Jimpressions)




Finally! Something new and interesting for the PlayStation 5. If you have one, this curious roguelite shoot-em-up might be your cup of tea. I’m personally enjoying it a lot.

It’s a tough game that has all the trappings of a permadeath run-doer with shiny next-gen graphics. Add some subtle existential horror, and you’ve got yourself an intriguing time… provided you can keep the game from ending your progress.
