Devilated is a very good boomer shooter that takes the genre’s core ideas and enhances both the violence level and the variety. Players will move fast, engage plenty of capable enemies, and then eat their corpses to get health back. Bosses are challenging, especially if it is the first time they make an appearance. But the experience struggles to push past the boundaries of its genre. The protagonist is unlikable, especially when talking. Levels work as battlespaces but lack world-building. Devilated delivers spectacular and tense fights for gamers who can ignore its flaws.
