The Real Review

End of Abyss is a mixed bag that gets a lot right but trips over some big frustrations. The setting is gorgeous and the Metroidvania structure works well, but the punishing difficulty is a major turnoff for many. Performance can be janky, especially on Xbox and PC, and people don't feel they got their money's worth. It's a solid concept from Section 9 Interactive that needed more polish and better balancing.
