Gamerabies.com writer Friar takes a look at the recently released demo for El Shaddai, the upcoming title from Ignition Games. The game is set for release on July 26th for Xbox 360 and PS3.
VGChartz's Evan Norris: "Presenting El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron to a new audience and preserving it for future generations is a great thing, especially considering its cult status. Whether that audience will enjoy it is another matter entirely. Due to its cryptic storytelling, repetitive combat, and clumsy platforming, it doesn't quite escape the orbit of mediocrity. Still, there's a lot to admire, including exciting boss battles, impressive production design, and powerful music. If nothing else, it's an ambitious game with a singular vision. And that's something to celebrate."
Its a pretty cool game. i have the 360 version but Id buy the switch to play on the go.
"The Tokyo-based (Japan) indie games developer crim Co., Ltd., today announced with gret joy and thrill that their unique third-person action adventure "El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron HD Remaster", is now available for the Nintendo Switch via the Nintendo Eshop." - Jonas Ek, TGG.
It's good to see this legend get a second chance.
Very cool art style.
The game looks absolutely amazing. I was playing it on a standard definition TV, and I can't wait to try it out in 1080p.
Sounds interesting.
I cant wait to see how the combat evolves, it seemed a bit repetitive with the "ARC" and the long range weapon, although it's a ton a fun to come up with combos and see them connect quite well. It's like a mixture of okami meets bayonetta.
The art direction is breathtakingly beautiful and I won't tire of seeing new scenery.
The music is just pure bliss to the ears, it truly is heavenly, which is what they were going for, I assume.
This. This game is what we need. It's an all-round beautiful, and amazing game. I replayed the demo over and over (mostly to beat that old dude) and never got tired of it. Day 1 buy for me.
