4.5/5 ★ – Step_GG's review of Arken Age.
[PSVR2] 11~ Hours
A great overall adventure full of action that also rewards exploration with both collectibles and useful resources, at first it might take a bit to fully get the hang of the controls and the game systems and how to use them effectively but once you do it is just a blast to play especially thanks to its great immersive body movement and great combat physics, especially melee, tons of settings to adjust almost everything to what you feel best too.
Game also has an interesting weapon customization for the main three weapons you will have, it has a great amount of “Mods” (that are essentially different attachments) that are divided in sets (that each also change the way the gun fires) but you can mix and match any of them to either create full sets (that gives you some extra buffs) or a build of your own, all this also with a tool to paint them in any color you want.
The artstyle at least for me is a little generic in the sense that it mixes the more standard fantasy look with classic looking sci-fi, still a cool looking game though thanks to good level design/environment and its two graphics modes that offer either a very smooth option (90hz Native) or an higher resolution one (60hz Reprojected), both look good! Music can get a bit repetitive and feeling a bit generic but the more combat related tracks are pretty fitting!
Overall had a great time and that final boss was actually pretty epic, only raged about the difficulty in the post ending optional arena fight that can have a lot of BS moments towards the end even in the easier difficulty, but other than that, fun!
