Splatting Salmonids can be intense
Solid variety of raid types
Compelling progression
Good replayability
Can play the game co-op
Level design is straightforward
Presentation is somewhat drab
Could use more new Salmonids

Numerama
Technically flawless, well done Switch 2
Ultra enjoyable and satisfying without ever being frustrating
Content really generous, especially for its price.
Replayability sometimes feels a bit forced, even if it's what the game wants.
The dull artistic direction will forever raise questions.
Almost impossible to finish 100% without going through co-op.

Shacknews
Short and sweet looter shooter stages
Strong variety of weapons
Shooting mechanics are as crisp as ever
Satisfying challenge level that increases over time
Easy to recruit friends and also lend your own services online
The Deep Cut crew are charming, as is your Mechanic avatar
Level design and enemy types start to feel repetitive after a while
Navigating the compass is a hassle
The grind to level up can become grueling

Nintendo-Town
Un gameplay addictif
Un plaisir de constituer son build parfait
De nombreuses possibilités avec les gadgets et les composants
Des passages jouissifs avec nos gadgets
Les niveaux platformer-puzzle complètent parfaitement l?expérience
Une difficulté à la fois relevée sans jamais être trop compliquée
Meilleur avec des amis en coopération
Des cinématiques rares mais très belles
Quelques musiques bien senties
Belle durée de vie (post-game compris)
Le gameplay est très classique, sans surprise
La progression est dirigiste et linéaire
L?histoire et les dialogues sont peu intéressants
Certains pourraient trouver le jeu pas assez fourni ni assez difficile
Certaines musiques ne sont pas très agréables à l?oreille
Des niveaux parfois ternes visuellement
Quid des joueurs toxiques pour le mode en ligne ?

The variety of enemies
The feeling of constant progress
The flexibility and possibilities of builds
There are breathtaking action sequences.
The soundtrack does not stand out as much as in other deliveries.
Some levels seem uninspired.

Pizza Fria
Constant humor filled with references to pop culture.
Reactive platform with almost instant checkpoints.
Excellent performance both on PC and on Steam Deck.
Good variety of scenarios and mechanics throughout the campaign.
Camera changes can cause imprecise jumps.
The subtitles must be activated manually.

Addictive gameplay loop, time-based levels are a total blast once you upgrade you character

GamersGlobal
Excellent service
The introduction slowly introduces the elements, training room for weapons and gadgets.
At times, quite demanding...
Wide variety of very different weapons
Wide selection of gadget skills divided into three classes with fine-tuning by mods.
Many levels, unlockable harder versions, and post-game content.
Charming dialogues and cinematics with the acolytes Mako, Muri, and Mantaro.
Even in the face of huge masses of enemies, stay fluid.
Detailed designs of handmade weapons and treasures.
The recoverable lore documents offer very nice illustrations.
Fine pieces in the bases and cinematics, some with traditional Japanese influences.
Percussive sounds
The overview is marred by a strong presence of opponents.
...but most often due to an artificial time limit
Design of mainly uniform missions
Many levels seem interchangeable
The level designs are also not visually memorable.
Dissonant, sometimes exasperating for the nerves, in many levels.

The level design is way too basic.

Pasquale, Angie and Raimi are still as endearing as ever.
Writing and wordplay
The bestiary of the Salmonoids
A dark and greyish AD
A creepy soundtrack
A flat and uninspired level design
Redundancy
A feeling of stretched contentment

Very frantic and addictive.

A formula that fits perfectly with the series.
This can become something repetitive for those who do not enjoy Salmon Run.
We need more characters and locations.
