Returnal reviewed by wccftech
Third person shooting, roguelike loop, and enough combat depth to have the two systems overlap without friction
Dozens of artifacts and parasites to give Selene a fighting chance
Excellent implementation of all DualSense features
Each map is randomly generated but filled with handcrafted maps and combat arenas
A good Dreadbound build is my favorite playstyle in all of Returnal
Each complete run lasts up to an hour and a half
Being struck by unseen enemies and losing half your life is a common occurrence
Half the weapon roster either underpowered or utterly useless for long range encounters
Story falls apart and fails to answer Selene's greatest mysteries in the second half, leaving it up to the player to interpret her fate
Getting your corpse scavenged and taking a negative ailment in an otherwise perfect run isn't cool
Many lore pieces relegated to audio logs and alien scripture tucked away across randomly generated stages
Occasional dips below 60 FPS during firefights with high explosion counts
Malignancy effects are rampant in Act Two with nearly 50% of every item drop covered in negative effects

Good technical performance with additions.
the atmosphere and the horror science fiction scenario of the title.
The fast-paced and addictive shooter.
Excellent sound production.
Good use of the potential of DualSense.
Roguelike gameplay that fans of the genre will appreciate.
But this can tire the wider audience who would like to try the very good gunplay as well as the world of Returnal.

Excellent visual fidelity and effects, and plenty of options.
Engaging gameplay loop with multiple complementary systems.
Gunplay and platforming work really well together.
Enemy and world design are refreshingly horrifying.
Procedural generation can be an obstacle in learning about the world.
Hitches here and there can build up to frustation.

Movement and shooting feels tight and fitting for the fast paced gameplay
With different upgrades and items to be found, replayability is extremally high.
The story does a wonderful job of reveling just enough to keep the player moving without dragging on
Initial difficulty may turn some players away, especially those who struggle with roguelikes

Graphic additions are welcome.
Tight and non-stop action.
It retains the same degree of frustration as the original version.

Many options to touch up all graphic aspects.
An obvious jump at the technical level compared to the PS5 version if you play to the maximum.
Great adaptation to keyboard and mouse controls.
Pretty obvious stuttering problems that need to be addressed.
The initial compilation of the shader can cause experienced processors to suffer.

Absolutely stunning
Some of the best audio ever produced in a game of this nature
Excellent world-building if you're willing to dig
A skill-based affair that is super-rewarding when you nail encounters and traversal
The use of the PS5 controller's features is commendable
Disparate in design
Slow and big, with too much rinse-repeat
The random aspect to the game's enemies and impediments and challenges removes any flow or sense of structure
After awhile the stunning art becomes repetitive, which is a real shame
The narrative takes a lot to bite into

Vida Extra
A dynamic and terribly addictive shooter with infinite replayability
Its setting and the way in which, little by little, the plot progresses is captivating
Mouse and keyboard jumping is a great fit for Returnal. Of course, the sensations with the DualSense give more nuances to the game
All news of the PS5 version has included the release, including multiplayer
Performance and various technical aspects are not as smooth as on PS5. Even after three fixes, it seems like one more is missing
