Duet Night Abyss isn’t a bad game, it’s a cautionary tale about how not to make a game.

Duet Night Abyss isn’t quite the “gachaless Genshin” it sells itself as, but its robust free-to-play content, customisation, and that thrilling feel of collecting is all too exciting to pass up.

If you’re searching for a mobile game to enjoy with friends, Duet Night Abyss is absolutely worth your time. While it occasionally tempts you for a “donation” or two, its real demand lies in your time and dedication. Fortunately, that investment pays off handsomely thanks to its rich content, striking audiovisuals, and the remarkable freedom it gives players to express themselves.

Many of us are waiting for this game to hit PS5 and Xbox, I personally play on PC and Laptop because my phone can't really handle it very well. If I could describe this game it would be like Warframe but instead of ugly alien like creatures it's gorgeous women and handsome men lol I really like the gameplay it's immersive and challenging, the Storylines are so good it has me begging the devs for more. Can't wait for the new update soon on the 7th to release I will definitely be pulling on Su Yi banner for the cosmetics they look sooooo good On God they cooked so hard with these new cosmetics. Things I like about this game that other gacha games don't have is the fact that costumes are interchangeable, pretty much all characters can wear the cosmetics you buy, and all of the weapons are also wieldable by all characters they are not locked behind characters like in other games. The voice acting is really good for all the main story and playable characters it's actually among some of the best voice acting I've heard, it's on par with like Kingdom Hearts sound quality Square Enix does not play with its sound quality so you know that's a major flex for this game. We even have Carina Reeves from Reverse1999 voice acting as Margie! What a treat for the ears and eyes, all of the characters are absolutely gorgeous. I fell in love with Margie immediately. Characters like Psyche are deep and emotional, I honestly cried at some of the story parts with some of the plot twists and deaths. The main character is awesome and honestly I believe you should choose the female MC because it makes the most sense. She fits into the storyline with Berenica so much better than the male does (I'm sorry bro lol). So far lvl58 out of 65 max trial level and I've loved every second of this game. Some people say you can afk once you get to 65 but so far I have not seen any of it myself, every bit of this game requires some sort of input so I'm not sure what everyone else is doing but I'm having loads of fun with this one. PS. The Music in this game is phenomenal. I like to listen to some of the OST's casually outside of the game that's how good they are. Honorable mentions: sybelle (great villain)
Camilla (playable soon!!!)
Fina (SHES SO DANG PRETTY ****)
Tabethe (her story is so sad but she's sooooo cuuuuute I love her must protect at all costs) Lisbell (wait- SHE HAS THE SAME VA AS PAIMON from Genshin!?!???? HOW???? HOW is that possible she sounds SO different!!! She sounds amazing when she's not talking as PAIMON wtf Mistress Patience!)

ignore all the crybabies in the review section theyre just sour that this game is so much better than their favorite gacha slop like wuwa, genshin, honkai, zzz, and even arknights endfield gameplay falls lackluster of this game. In this game you dont have to spend money to unlock a character, there are no furries in this game (that makes alot of people rage and turn into grifters), freaks. Instead we have humans and demonic looking charons that are actually super nice people most of the time, either way everyone is a humanoid but with some demons and mechas and spirited animals like dragons and wolves and such. but not furries. if youre a furry then just stick to zzz and endfield. (ps i actually enjoy zzz and endfield but I'm not gonna act like its not a furry game). unlike genshin and wuwaslop this game isn't a waste of time and money, you play at your own pace without the rush of having to pull on a banner for your favorite new character, they're always available to unlock so you don't have to spend hundreds of dollars every time a new wAiFu comes out like the cringelords over at wuwa do. This game is mature and people DIE, unlike in kiddy games like genshin. There is no censorship so yes you can see the grown women wearing their black thongs... its NOT a kiddy game that just edges you with big booba like wuwa and genshin. NO the lolis dont wear that they wear short shorts underneath so dont come here to try and perv on Lisbell and Truffle they are good girls. Snow and the rest of the lunos are likeable, useful, and relatable unlike Paimon lmfao. The characters are all dynamic not a single one of them are cringe edgelords like in zzz or endfield. No the characters dont all want to DATE YOU like in Wuwa so if you think this is a dating sim just stay in wuwa. The grifters crying about the game being hacked are the same ones that turn their windows defender off and browse r34 every single night and theyre suprised they get malware. DONT LISTEN TO THE GRIFTERS. Everyone that plays this game actively has not gotten malware and we all congregate on the games built in chat, we are a nice community and we are inclusive to everyone. Teaming up with others is easy, as well as playing solo. You can grind all you want for whatever you want and just ignore anything you dont want, youre not forced to grind anything in this game, because theres also a paid mechanism that allows you to buy outright whatever characters you want if you don't have to the time to grind or if you want a premium experience. Lets compare gameplay:
Genshin gameplay :requires you to switch characters to do unison attacks, lacks depth in gameplay, easy for children to pickup since its not that deep, limited stamina is extremely annoying, movement is very SLOW for all characters unless you buy one of the characters that gives better movement but its PAID its not a part of the base game. run climb repeat stamina drained? to bad.
Weapons in genshin are not all class interchangeable. you cant wield a greatsword with Amber or a bow with Yanfei. weapons are extremely limited to character class.
Characters: while the characters are fun and perky, the game is definitely for kids and teens, very one dimensional. lack depth and character development. "ooh look shes pretty must pull" is basically as deep as they're going to be. (albeit i love some of them like Yanfei and YunJin)
Music: not bad at all
Wuwa: gameplay is flashy and can be extravagant given you PAY UP AND PULL FOR THE PREMIUM CHARACTERS. if you don't the game is BORING, BLAND, and lackluster. good luck playing this game and by goodluck i mean with the gacha because that's all it is. they don't call it wuthering wives for nothing.
weapons: literally the same as genshin but more emphasis on the premium characters skills and abilities to provide the paywall that will seperate the free to play from the paid players. skills are flashy and provide a "premium" experience for the Premium players
Movement is better than genshin at least. Music: forgettable.
Endfield: gameplay is more robust even though its a newer game and comes from a tower defense background, its found a niche of furry fans and adopts the Tales of Arise "Four players at once unison attacks", game style minus the magic you'd get from a Tales of Series Game.
Weapons: tied to character class
Movement: none to speak of
Characters: furries. furries everywhere. Everyones a furry.
Music: really good in the past arknights has a lot of good songs.
DNA overall has better movement mechanics than all 3 of the above. Endfield having the worst movement mechanics of all 4 in question. DNA has more mature themes than all of them. DNA storyline is better and easier to understand than all of them. DNA allows all characters to wield any gun or weapon you choose. DNA does not limit stamina. DNA characters are deep and four dimensional, lots of char development and death/ consequences. Music is 10/10 fits the themes, situations, and backgrounds.

They added a kernel anticheat (ACE), make my PC crash instantly. How can this **** be necessary ? It's a single player game?
Making your game worse for everyone because of a minority of cheater is so stupid.

Its Warframe, but anime. Combat feels smooth and impactful. Decent graphics but it runs really well on pc. Its free. Gacha mechanics only for cosemetics. Overall good game. Give it a try

This game can get better, and I hope it does. The story is better than every hoyo game story, period. People be dropping like fly in this one. What it lacks is attention to detail, good scene translation and a good director of which i dont blame them considering chinese censorship kills creative freedom. If the game survives, hopefully they will improve upon the presentation like wuthering waves. The combat is fast pace and responsive. However, the game either feels way to easy, or you fight a boss that's a big damage sponge. There's no chance of dying until you start running bosses that are level 60 and above. I've never played warflame, to me, the dodging system feels mid and should be more satisfying. I think they should've simplified the game after they removed the gacha aspect, there are way too many mats to keep track. The grind in this game is more than I like. Killing waves and waves of the same harmless enemies over and over do gets old. Lastly, I want to talk about my personal preference. I am not fan of the playable character designs so far. Honestly I say the best designed character so far is the Mc. Most playable characters looks like temu version of a existing character of a different game. I suppose if they all looked good, no one will buy the skins. After checking the ingame shop thoroughly, there was not a single thing in the shop that motivated me enough to put in my cc. Good for f2p, but it worries me that the game might eos. If it were up to me, I'd definitely lower the brainless grind fatigue, give dodge like a brief timeslow effect and release better characters with better skins asap.

I feel like I'm playing a beta version. The fact that the only gacha system is for clothing is great, but the game needs polishing. There are many systems based on Warframe, but that's not a bad thing. What I like:
- No gacha system for characters or weapons
- No energy
- The weapon animations are good
- All characters can use all weapons
- The user interface is really great
- At least for now, there are no sub-stats on equipment
- Bullet jump What I don't like:
- Melee attacks and abilities are performed in the direction the character is facing
- The faces are expressionless. The characters' faces lack expression, but the NPCs' faces are the worst: their mouths and eyes don't move
- Aside from the bullet jump, I can't use parkour
- The city feels static and lifeless. The NPCs don't move, and, for example, I did a quest helping an old woman find her children, and the old woman keep repeating the same phrase every time I approached.

the only "silver lining" of this so-called game is that there is almost no gacha. the same old anime tropes, soulless character designs, rampant fanservice...i can go on for a LOOOONG time. since most people who pre-registered for this horse manure ONLY play gacha games and have standards lower than the Earth's core, the devs most likely make no effort to develop a cohesive and impactful storyline. I'm telling y'all, this game WON'T survive next year.

Unfortunately, the game did not exceed my expectations, if anything, it showed me just how polluted the new “gacha” anime-style game genre is. Unimaginative designs, a dull and a thousand-times seen world that seems lifeless and empty. While I do applaud the developers of taking a new approach, of having characters locked behind story-lines rather than a pay-wall - the reach for the new should not be an excuse to glue the rest of the concepts like a haphazardly made 2nd grade crafts project and package it as something revolutionary. The game still has a long way to go - it feels incomplete and aimless, picking and choosing ideas as if rummaging through a lost and found. Optimisation needs work as well - a game made in 2025 should at least have a concise And useable settings menu - but muchalike the rest of the game - it feels like an afterthought. What shocked me is that there is no way to uninstall it naturally - you have to through hoops and bounds to fully get rid of the game from your PC. Disappointing, soulless and remarkably unimaginative is the current state of this game. One can only hope that the developers will see these short-comings and try to do better - or, perhaps, they’ll take a more easily threaded path of regurgitating mediocre content, hoping that their tasteless customisation options will keep this game afloat.
