Steam reviews

What players say

Mixed: players like the souls-style combat and extraction loop, but server lag, desync and class balance drive many to refund or quit.

Many players praise the combat, which they describe as responsive and skill-based, and the risk-versus-reward extraction loop, with several calling it a fresh take on the genre. The atmosphere and visuals earn praise too, and the game runs smoothly for many. Criticism centres on servers: many players report lag, desync and hits that do not register in PvP, and the absence of an Oceanic server is a frequent complaint. Many also say class balance is poor, with some classes dominating and frequent patches making things worse. Others object to the monetisation, mainly cosmetic shop prices and gacha-style rewards, and to the forced trio requirement for progression. Recent reviews are more negative and focus on the server wipe and the market split, though a few say recent patches have improved stability.

Praised

  • Satisfying combat

    Players describe the free-aim melee and class-specific fighting as responsive, dynamic and rewarding.

    Many players
  • Risk-versus-reward extraction

    The tension of pushing deeper for loot against extracting in time is a recurring highlight.

    Some players
  • Gritty dark fantasy look

    Some players

Criticised

  • Server lag and desync

    Players report lag, rubber-banding and hits that do not register, especially in PvP fights.

    Many players
  • Poor class balance

    Players say some classes dominate, others are weak, and frequent nerfs and buffs make the balance feel random.

    Many players
  • Monetisation and gacha

    Cosmetic prices, gacha-style rolls and a battle pass draw criticism as greedy for a paid game.

    Some players
  • No Oceanic server

    Players in Australia and New Zealand report unplayable ping and some lost progress after the server split.

    Some players
Who it suits
Suits players who enjoy hard melee combat and risky extraction runs and can tolerate lag and frequent balance changes.
Who should skip it
Should skip it if you need stable servers, play solo or duo, or dislike gear wipes and paid cosmetic gacha.

Short vs. long playtime: Players with hundreds of hours more often complain about server wipes, the market split and stagnant content, while newer players focus on combat and atmosphere.
