The Real Review

Most people are digging Frogwares' Lovecraftian survival horror, calling the flooded city of Arkham a gorgeous and terrifying place to explore, especially thanks to its Unreal Engine 5 visuals. The overall reception is positive, though some very vocal frustrations are pulling it down, particularly with the punishing difficulty and a combat system that many find clunky. Performance issues and a questionable value proposition are also common gripes, especially on PC and Xbox. While it's not for everyone, fans of the genre see it as a solid, atmospheric successor.
