Deep and involving storyline,Great life cycle premise,Superb shooter action,One of the first PS5 games to truly make use of haptics,Stunning visuals
Rock hard - maybe too much so for some
Returnal is a superb game that is well timed and gratefully received. It's not the first game to use the eat, sleep, rinse and repeat concept. It won't be the last either, with Deathloop coming later this year. However, it does it in a clever, interesting...
DualSense support is subtle but effective, Sounds amazing with headphones, Seamless loading times, Immersive storytelling, Environment changes keep gameplay fresh
Few persistent upgrades, Runs can feel needlessly long, Combat can feel repetitive
(Image credit: Sony)Returnal is the perfect game for those who love a challenge with a bit extra behind it. It's a game of risk, with its unpredictability defining the degree of challenge more than the enemies themselves. When Returnal is challenging, it'...

Muy inmersivo, Historia y jugabilidad muy originales, Cómo aprovecha la PS5
Si solo lo juegas una vez, es algo corto, Técnicamente podría ser algo mejor

Spannendes Setting mit aussergewöhnlich erzählter Geschichte, Motivierendes, forderndes Spielsystem, Flotte, effektreich dargebotene Kämpfe, Vielfältiges Gegner- und Bossdesign, Guter 3D-Audio-Support, Insgesamt solide Grafik mit absolut stabiler Technik
