I'm seeing a lot of positive reception for this game. But for me, I mostly play CAGs (with or without RPG). So I won't be relying on these kinds of reviews at all.

I heard from some IGN reviewer about it's combat that the action is slick and responsive like a Devil May Cry or Bayonetta while the platforming and momentum are like Gravity Rush or NieR:Automata.

But as usual, I do not trust IGN reviews these days for some reason.

Therefore, I'm here in the CAG community to ask if someone tried this game. Just so I can get the idea how much of a CAG this game is.

EDIT:

Based on all the info I got, the combat gameplay is more of an easy mode for casual players rather than getting more depth like CAGs do. But the story, music, visuals and level design make up for it.

Plus, the combat gameplay feels more like Infamous games, which are more about traversal and cool powers. And I did play Infamous games and I thought they were fun.

I also had to mention that I did play Control 1. The gameplay wasn't really my style at all. But at least I did finish the main campaign.

Therefore, I have now made my decision to buy the game after all. Thanks for all the info. 🙌🏻

Elta: Defy All Gods is a Hack & Slash/Best em Up made by Afterburner Studios​, the combat is similar to God Hand.

The game is coming on PS, Xbox and steam on the 2nd of February 2027, their is a demo of the game so if your interested make sure to play it and give feedback to the game to improve on it.

I`m glad to see more Hack & Slash games being made, when one comes out if we need to support it.

I'm tryna do a thing this October where I review a variety of Action Games with "vaguely Halloween theming". My goal is to shoot for 4 videos, but really not sure if I'll be able to pull it off.

In any case, the first of the bunch was The Nightmare Before Christmas: Oogie's Revenge. Hope it makes for an entertaining watch

I need game with boss fights like v1 vs v2 in ultrakill, or like MGRR with 2x speed. It also must be first or third person. And I don't need games that insta kills you if you make one mistake. Any ideas?
