The catalog in 3D

The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

How it feels

A fluid mix of stealth and brutal combat set in a dark fantasy realm, with a focus on climbing and assassination.

What players say

Players praise the nemesis system for making orc encounters personal, but many find the open world repetitive and the story forgettable. The combat draws comparisons to Batman: Arkham, and a minority report a save-wiping bug.
