Bleak Faith: Forsaken

After previewing Bleak Faith: Forsaken, I'm back to fully review this Souls-like that aims to be a solid experience while attempting to reinvent the genre. It mixes both Sci-Fi and Medieval fantasy to create a unique world that might be one of my new favorite game worlds. Find out what else I thought of Bleak Faith: Forsaken down below.

Bleak Faith: Forsaken invites players to a world where sci-fi meets fantasy, and while it's not the best soulslike available, its mix of rewarding exploration and solid combat makes it well worth checking out.

Bleak Faith: Forsaken is a game with incredible potential. It makes up for technical issues with surreal environments and horrific enemy designs, but its core gameplay suffers from heavy focus on Souls-like mechanics and common deaths. It still needs time to resolve those problems, but if the devs make use of that time with continued updates and support, faith in this game's greatness might not be so bleak after all.

Bleak Faith Forsaken is not someone’s first souls-like, but a must try for fans of the genre.

Bleak Faith: Forsaken may not be the best soulslike experience, but the world and overall designs are very impressive, despite the uninspired story and mechanical shortcomings.

It's worth playing for fans of the genre, and it hints at the developers having a lot more talent than this game ultimately lets on. However, Bleak Faith: Forsaken does have a lot of caveats for it to be universally recommended to everyone.

True to its name, Bleak Faith: Forsaken offers one of the more desolate, enigmatic takes on the action RPG subgenre. But despite the obvious talent and effort on display, this title may be too bleak for its own good.

Bleak Faith: Forsaken's interesting art design can't save it from its glitches, bugs, and myriad terrible game design decisions.
