How it feels
A high-octane action RPG where you chain psionic powers and melee attacks in flashy, anime-style battles against grotesque mutants.

What players say
Players praise the psychokinetic combat and cool enemy designs but are frustrated by the inability to dodge-cancel, making combat feel sluggish and forcing repetitive wait-and-punish strategies. Split on the story and characters, with some finding them engaging and others stereotypical. A full experience requires two playthroughs for both protagonists.
