The Real Review

Saros is a slick, fast-paced action game from Housemarque that looks incredible, but its reception is divided. The core gameplay loop is a clear winner, with people loving the frantic combat and feeling it's a natural next step after Returnal. The main sticking points are the story, which some find thin, and the punishing difficulty that can feel unfair at times, making the value proposition a bit shaky for anyone who isn't all-in on the genre. There's also a vocal contingent frustrated by its PlayStation exclusivity.
