Generation Zero combines the open world of an RPG with the shooting and looting of a battle royale, to create a rather special, 80s vision of post-apocalyptic sci-fi, where every fight feels like a battle for survival.

Generation Zero could probably be best described as an unpolished gem. If a second part is going to be made (and I sincerely hope that’s happening), I’m sure that it’s going to be much better and better focused. Until then, if you're playing Generation Zero in a single player or with other people, you’re in for a treat. You’re going to experience something unique, and that in itself is valuable.

Generation Zero is more or less what I expected from a big game studio doing its own indie project – a rough-but-unique mix of open-world game features. I love that it asks players to actually pay attention to its world instead of keeping them distracted with constant waypoint markers. And the tactical combat system really works, hitting an interesting middle ground between mainstream and hardcore.

Generation Zero was designed with co-op in mind, but it lacks basic quality of life features, like dedicated servers, ignore list for matchmaking and even something as vital as integrated voice chat. [Issue#237, p.50]

Menacing robots, a gorgeous world, and an intriguing premise, but ultimately too minimalist for its own good.

This is a coop shooter with a great setting and good ideas, but the worlds feels empty, the progression isn’t very appealing and ends up feeling repetitive.

Generation Zero is based on an interesting concept, but its empty open world leads to an overall boring experience.

Generation Zero isn't a misfire, it's far from it. The core gameplay experience is enjoyable enough, though trudging through the thin, but admittedly mysterious, plot only spices things up for so long. There's a world of untapped potential at Avalanche's fingertips here, all that's left to do is tighten up on some of the game's shortcomings and Generation Zero could comfortably stand alongside even the best sandbox survival titles.

An interesting take on the post-apocalyptic genre, full of beautiful vistas and a streamlined interface, but moments of awe are punctuated with run-ins with the buggy and inconsistent AI.
