I took a punt on buying this on ps5 via psn on release yesterday. Its basically a zoomed out isometric soulslike with diablo like graphics set in ancient Greece.

The introduction section is pretty generic and nearly put me off but it last less than an hour and afterwards the game really opens up.

Once the tutorial is out of the way the game opens up into an open world soulslike. Combat seems decent, with the usual light, heavy, running light and running heavy atacks.

You also have skills assigned to square, triangle and x - I only have 2 so far a really powerfully kick which puts opponents on the deck opening them up to other attacks and a ranged shield throw.

There is a large skill tree (it reminds me a bit of the salt and Sanctuary tree) which along with the usual stat levels has some more interesting options like health on crit.

For the price (I think it was £17) it definitely seems decent, the map seems pretty big so it should keep me busy for a fair while.
