Revealed as recently as April of this year, the magic based first-person shooter Immortals of Aveum is out now, and the reviews are in.
Unfortunately for Ascendant Studios, its debut title is looking to be somewhat of a mixed bag in reviews released for the game so far. On the higher end of the scale, reviewers seem to be finding the fast-paced, spell-oriented shooting one of its strong suits, though critics don’t seem to be united on that front as some found it to be quite repetitive. Opinions on the game’s story are mixed too, with a number of reviews finding it to be overall forgettable.
“Immortals of Aveum stops just short of fully complementing its traditional military shooter story with an engaging environmentalist message, instead opting to primarily use those narrative themes to inform the world design and lore,” wrote Jordan Ramée in GameSpot’s Immortals of Aveum review. “It leaves the overall story feeling half-baked, further highlighting the uncharacteristic actions of its unlikable protagonist.”
