Dang Among Us must’ve done some monster numbers to end up that high in the yearly chart after only being on sale a couple weeks. Wish Returnal would’ve placed higher.
They need to drop that Returnal DLC. My game of the year but it needs a boost right now. I know the budget was paltry and it probably covered at 500k units but Sony needs to keep the game relevant or attempt to stretch it. It’s a shame that the casual masses will overlook such a compelling game simply because it didn’t have gobbs of marketing. When the last Dark Souls hits 10 mil and Elden Ring is voted most anticipated game of the year difficulty can’t be an excuse.
As good as Rift Apart was, I still was more enthralled with Returnal. If u play the game please go all in and read the lore, check the house, and immerse yourself. The game can be as deep as u want it to be. There’s a world of creative depth and an intriguing character to behold if u give the game proper attention. It’s a fascinating ride and it’s never been better with the content additions, QoL improvements, and ofc photo mode. Unfortunately, it even has saves now. No excuse not to dive in now. Whether u love Housemarque, roguelites, or intriguing science fiction, alien worlds, and psychological intrigue. There’s a bit of Christopher Nolan, a bit of Ridley Scott, a bit of Dead Space/Lost Planet in a unique AAA roguelite package. Best in class 3D audio and DualSense support featured as well. Truly the best in-game audio I have ever heard. When u feel rain through your controller and then thunder strikes your eardrums via 3D audio u will be in awe for a moment. I was. This is the only game that made me really stop and notice the 3D audio.
