    If you like the general style of first person shooters but feel they need a bit of a fresh change… this will likely be just what you are looking for. A lot of fun and a beautiful spectacle to take in. Highly recommended!

    Immortals of Aveum boldly attempts to deliver an epic cinematic experience about a war involving magic, and it succeeds in its ambition. Fast-paced combat that places the game firmly in the shooter genre combine with satisfying platforming and puzzle-solving to make for an adventure that stays focused on its linear story while offering extra secrets for those who want to explore beyond its core narrative. There’s some repetition here and there that can be frustrating, but when you’re blasting colourful magic spells across battlefields of enemies like a violent fireworks display, it’s hard not to be impressed. Visually stunning with an excellently committed cast, Immortals of Aveum is a satisfying adventure and an impressive debut from a studio clearly not afraid to defy expectations.

    In some ways, Immortals of Aveum can be seen as a wasted opportunity to give shooter fans a memorable experience with an outstanding graphics. Instead, Ascendant Studios' debut game turned out to be just a good first-person shooter that entertains without being boring, thanks to a surprising RPG component and gameplay that excellently does its job of entertaining players. In addition to a decent story and a not particularly long campaign, Immortals of Aveum also has to contend with a less-than-stable frame-rate and other flaws that do not allow it to be one of the best shooters of the last years.

    Immortals of Aveum is a great shooter with nice and fast gameplay, nice world building and a fairly interesting story. It doesn't do much wrong, but just lacks soul to become your new favorite FPS, unless you were really waiting for a Call of Duty with magic and dragons.

    Immortals of Aveum is a solid first effort from a brand-new studio. It’s not without its troubles, of which there are many, and it absolutely does not land half of the concepts it’s trying to pull off, but there’s a glimmer of a great game in there. If nothing else, it’s worth playing just to see somebody do something different in a triple-A space that so rarely innovates.

    As far as first tries go, there's plenty to admire with Ascendant Studios' debut effort. Immortals of Aveum offers something to build on, both in terms of its own lore and for this up-and-coming studio as a whole.

    Mixing repetitive, imprecise combat with annoying characters and a landslide of nonsensical, proper noun-stuffed lore, Immortals of Aveum is almost so bad it's good. If only.

First off, graphics are anmazing and the world is beautiful. The combat is extremely addicting and very solid. Has such a nice feel to it and might be one of the best fps games we’ve gotten in years. You can see traces of Halo, destiny and some Doom in there, but still is able to be original and it’s own thing. I can not stress enough how fun the combat is in this game. Highly recommend!… Expand

    Review for Immortal of Aveum:

    I absolutely love the combat in this fps/fantasy game! It's incredibly fun and keeps you on your toes with    Review for Immortal of Aveum:

    I absolutely love the combat in this fps/fantasy game! It's incredibly fun and keeps you on your toes with its fast-paced action. The visuals throughout the game are stunning, creating a captivating world to explore. While the story may not be groundbreaking, it's still entertaining and keeps you engaged. It reminds me a bit of Marvel's Eternal, which adds to the excitement. I can understand why this game might receive mixed reviews, as it combines elements from both Call of Duty and Destiny. However, if you're a fan of fantasy games, I believe you'll thoroughly enjoy Immortal of Aveum.

    Strengths:
    - The combat is a blast and keeps you engaged.
    - The visuals are breathtaking, creating a mesmerizing world.
    - The characters are cool and add depth to the gameplay.
    - Fun puzzles.

    Weaknesses:
    - The storyline is mediocre, but still manages to entertain.
    - Once you finish the game, there isn't much replay value.

    The final verdict for Immortal of Aveum would be 7 out of 10. The game offers an enjoyable experience with its captivating storyline, stunning graphics, and immersive gameplay. Additionally, it features some very fun puzzles that are not too challenging, adding an extra layer of excitement to the overall gameplay experience.    … Expand

    Another mediocre AA game asking AAA price for entry.

    Combat is okay but merely replacing guns with different color spells doesn't make me    Another mediocre AA game asking AAA price for entry.

    Combat is okay but merely replacing guns with different color spells doesn't make me feel like a "bad ass battle mage" -- just a dude using fingerguns. I'd argue that Tiny Tina's Wonderlands did a better job making guns and spells feel more unique and interesting than anything Immortals of Aveum does. The story is just absolute nonsensical tripe, loads of random crap and proper nouns thrown at you throughout the whole thing with cringe dialog from the protagonist and NPCs. Absolutely nothing about the story hooked me into the world. The puzzles, as simple as they are, were the best parts of the game, in my opinion. The game is also pathetically short: Took me about 15 hours from start to finish doing most of everything there was to do in the game. Might be able to tack on an hour or two if I go back to finish up all the trophies but I can't be bothered.There's no replay value either, nothing that changes the story of the game, nothing different to experience in multiple playthroughs

    Graphically I could tell there were frame drops and stutters but there was something else about the game's visuals that were poor that I couldn't quite put my finger on. At least not until Digital Foundry did their deep dive and revealed that the game is running at a FSR2 upscaled version of 720p. *720p!* Upscaling to 4K from a 720p image, especially on my 65" QLED screen, results in an abysmal image quality with loads of texture shimmering, distance blur, and jagged edges. And the game has no HDR? As a "next gen" only title?

    When games like Hogwarts Legacy, Baldur's Gate 3, Starfield, Zelda: ToTK, and Spider-Man 2 are asking $70 with massive loads of content and replay value, asking $70 for a middling overall game that only lasts 15 hours is a joke. It's basically a glorified tech demo, and it's not even great at that. Already resold it for most of what I paid for it and won't bother with it again unless it ends up free on PS+ or EA Play. I don't recommend wasting your money. If you're really interested, wait until November when you'll probably find it for twenty bucks.    … Expand
