Don't buy it! Full of politics and WOKE agenda. Very bad in any aspect. Don't buy it!

This could have been a perfectly fine game if the story had not been so heavily focused on modern identity politics and DEI messaging.Games with this kind of forced ideological content should be clearly labeled, so players know what they are buying. This is a perfect example of how modern politics can damage an otherwise solid game and pull the player out of the experience.I cannot recommend it at all. I hope studios eventually learn that pushing political messaging into games comes at a cost.

Ennesimo gioco PlayStation con una discreta parte ludica ma una storia banale piena di inclusivita forzata ed npc insignificanti soprattutto gli uomini che sony non smette più di far apparire come mostri e deboli di carattere.... Questa è l'era delle girlsboss di PlayStation.... Questa non è più la PlayStation

Buttery smooth and fast paced combat with stunning visuals. The environment, the audio/music, the combat, and the bosses are all incredible. Amazing game.

Returnal is a much better game, this is bare bones in comparison.. Weapons are not as interesting, dialogue is meh, story is zz. Completed Returnal, already bored of this (past first boss). Regret purchase, won't be buying their next one.

Amazing game from Housemarque yet again. Gameplay focused through and through, just like Returnal. Add amazing music and sound design, and another dark story like Returnal did, and you know its gonna be good.

This game is dope. I liked returnal, but it was just too hard for me. Saros takes all the good and makes the difficulty more approachable - you feel like you’re making progress every run.

Feels more like the game released before and leading up to returnal. Pros:
Beautiful world building, enemies are different and bosses a decent bit more challenging. Overall, the gameplay is really fun Cons: Weapons are boring, enemies are mostly difficult because they're bullet sponges, artifacts are useless and the characters and story are just super boring and lackluster. The animations aren't in sync with the dialogue even, which is crazy considering the price tag. Overall, gameplay is fun but the story parts are dreadful and finding new weapons and artifact is completely unsatisfying as everything is kinda 'The same ****'. It just doesn't matter what you do. Just run through, don't get hit.

This game is fantastic, it improves almost every aspect from returnal. I do think returnal has better replay value and I miss daily challenges but otherwise fantastic. Disclosure: still need to complete final biome but I love this game and look forward to creating crazy difficult runs to see how far I can get once I beat it...

Saros struggles to live up to its ambitions. While the core action is flashy, the story feels pretentious and unevenly told, with stiff dialogue animations and characters that mostly serve as exposition vehicles. Some runs drag with too much empty traversal, and the roguelite structure, though improved, still leads to repetition that can wear **** psychological horror elements often feel vague and underdeveloped rather than truly unsettling. For a full-priced PS5 exclusive, it leaves you wishing Housemarque had tightened the pacing and narrative delivery.Bottom line: Flashy but flawed — more style than substance in key areas.

Aburrido, jugabilidad poco interesante, dificultad de risa, diseño de personajes horroroso, historia absurda. Es la definicion de juego moderno.

I BOUGHT 4 COPIES of that games to offer my Friends because I wanted to support the studio ! I was sure the game will be that good…. Maybe I expected too much… that game is good but far from the ambiance and the pleasure I found in Returnal. To my point of view the only point where I find Saros to be better is the communication / marketing. Sony made it more accessible but really I lost a lot. The good point is, if you like Saros and you never played Returnal - please go and dive in ….. The weapons, the solitude feeling, the thrill, the amnesic loop concept that fits way more here….. thank you Housemarque for Saros anyway - 1000 thank you for RETURNAL!

O jogo é viciante. As armas são diversificadas, o sistema de som perfeito, e os biomas muito bonitos. Joguei Returnal e de fato era frustrante morrer e voltar tudo (no final até consegui a sonhada platina) e Saros, neste ponto, é menos punitivo.

Saros is very disappointing. The gameplay has very little variety, the story is boring, and the characters are bland. In the end, the game is very short and very repetitive.

If Retural was a 9, then Saros is an 8.
Returnal was a Little Bit better in every Point.

A fantastic masterpiece that is not only audiovisually impressive and runs brilliantly on the PS5, but the gameplay is also outstanding and completely captivating.

Phenomenal gunplay, jaw dropping visuals, eargasmic sound design, zero tolerance precision controls. I could go on glazing this masterpiece but no amount of praise can justify how well this game plays. My GOTY atm.

Visually, it's a very good game; its graphics are truly admirable. The mechanics are entertaining and can keep you playing for hours. At times it can become challenging, especially due to the need to restart the game, which is common in this genre. As for the story, I haven't finished it yet, but I don't consider it as disastrous as some people say. Overall, it's a good game that's worth giving a try.

Another triumph for Housemarque. This game is stunning. Amazing combat and replayability. I hope this game gets all sorts of dlc, and maybe even a couple of Returnal Easter eggs.

Saros is one of the most beautiful and unique tps I've ever played. It is so addictive that I can't stop playing. Gun play is super fun and boss fight is really challenging, but I've found it very rewarding after beating the boss. Graphic looks amazing as well and I didn't feel any frame drops. I highly recommend you play this unless you don't like rouglike. Plus, saros is much easier than returnal thanks to upgrading system.

Saros is incredibly beautiful with a ton of particles and effects and ennemies on screen. The art direction and level design are very nice and detailed. Very stable performance overall. Fast and rewarding gameplay based on dash, block and parry. It can be hard sometime to leave the controller as progression is other biomes is nicely paced. The one downside to me is that some weapons are really outclassed and you end up playing with same 2/3.

Saros has truly become one of the best roguelikes I’ve played in a long time. The game has such a fluid and addictive structure that I finished it in just two days; I played almost breathlessly for about 20 hours in total. You start by saying "just one more run" and completely lose track of time. Housemarque has once again leveled up in terms of gameplay. The combat tempo, movement mechanics, and hit markers are incredibly successful. Every weapon feels powerful, and every encounter is a high adrenaline **** boss battles are one of the game's absolute peaks. I haven’t played such epic, high tempo, and memorable boss fights in a long time. The final boss fight, in particular, was unforgettable; even though it took me about 5 hours to beat, I didn't get bored for a single second. It was so satisfying to learn something new with each attempt and get a little bit closer every time. It’s challenging but never feels **** music and sound design are also top tier. They keep the atmosphere alive, pump you up during battles, and perfectly reflect the sense of mystery during exploration. The DualSense support is also magnificent I highly recommend playing it with the PS5 controller.

Phenomenal game. Thank you for creating a generational game. If any one is giving this a zero they are just trying to review bomb it.

Whoever’s giving this game anything less then an 8/10 ( I gave it a 10 ) came out day 1 no bugs all polished exactly the way a triple A game should be and the gameplay is definitely an evolution of returnal. Some people may like returnal better and there’s nothing wrong with that, but this is a bit more user friendly and probably saving people money from breaking there controllers after dying 100 times. But ANYONE WHO RATES THIS GAME A 0 HAS NEVER PLAYED IT. This is 100% an early contender for GOTY. We all know GTA6 is gonna end up shadowing everything but this is top quality from PlayStation studios for sure. So anyone reading reviews don’t listen to the trolls who’ve never even played it who go out of there way to write a review and lower a well deserved high score.

Amazing game and evolution Housemarque. One of the best 3rd person shooter games on the market. Incredible attention to detail, art direction, sound, music, and most importantly optimization. The game is polished from start to finish in comparison with other games, this is a game on a different level. How cool is Dualsence implemented. You just get pleasure on some kind of fundamental level.

I really enjoyed this game, it had me hooked from start to finish. By the end though I couldnt help but think I enjoyed Returnal a bit more, especially comparing its story. It has a much more friendly gameplay loop and boss fights are much easier than Returnal.

Después de 29 horas y sacar su platino, debo de decir que me sorprendió, perfeccionó cosas de returnal. Lo considero un poco más difícil que returnal, pero con la ventaja del modificador que ya sea ponerlo más accesible o más desafiante. Me hubiera gustado darle el 10, pero los npc fuera de cinemática están muy estáticos, no se podrías haber estado haciendo algo en la base, pero bueno donde más estamos es fuera de la base. En fin, muy recomendado.

Big fan of bullet hell roguelike games. Loved Returnal. About 15 hours in, it certainly does some things better then Returnal some not as much. I think when you get used to the game mechanics it is more enjoyable with a little more of an aggressive play style. Boss battles are good but I think a step down from Returnal. More biomes in Soro, some are better then anything in Returnal but some miss it's kind of a mixed bag. Story I think is better so far with some similar themes. Overall a really great game if you like this kind of genre.

It is in every aspect better than Returnal. The gameplay is great, it looks so good and it is such a fun to explore the world and make progress. Even better, it triggers the incel snowflake boys who are so unsecure about their sexuality that they cry about lesbians in a video game and write angry reviews with 0 points. The biggest losers on earth. Just play Tetris and ****.

Puro Gameplay sin distracciones. No juegue a returnal porque decían que era muy difícil. Pero después de las buenas notas de saros al final me decidí a comprarlo,porque uno de los puntos es que era más accesible. El juego es un espectáculo visual y el gunplay de lo mejor que he jugado nunca. Recomendado 100%

Inutile de tergiverser, Saros est une exclusivité de premier choix dans le catalogue de la PS5, et il a cette fois le bon goût de s’ouvrir à un plus large public, tout cela sans renier l’excellence et la précision du gameplay auquel Housemarque nous a habitués depuis des années. Même sans avoir totalement terminé l’aventure, il ne fait aucun doute que nous sommes face à un titre majeur tant il procure des sensations incroyables et permet de vivre des moments mémorables. La réalisation n’est pas en reste, avec une production encore plus qualitative sur ce plan que dans Returnal, et les rares **** bémols que nous avons évoqués à ce sujet n’ont aucune incidence réelle sur le plaisir de jeu. Aussi talentueux soit Housemarque depuis des années, on n’aurait pas parié les voir, aux côtés d’Insomniac, élevés au rang des studios first party majeurs de cette génération. Avec deux titres aussi qualitatifs en l’espace de cinq ans, les développeurs finlandais prouvent que c’est en travaillant sur des types de projets que l'on maîtrise sur le bout des doigts que l’on peut les mener à bout parfaitement. Si certains auraient pu penser le mélange des genres risqués à la sortie de Returnal en 2021, l’accueil du jeu a montré l'appétence des joueurs et de la presse pour les boulettes à la sauce acrobatique, on ne doute donc pas qu’il en sera exactement de même avec Saros. Oui, le jeu souffre parfois du même problème que son prédécesseur, à savoir l’impression (fugace en général) que certaines runs sont vouées à l’échec tellement les combinaisons de monstres croisés et le loot obtenu nous semblent défavorables. Néanmoins, l’envie de relancer immédiatement la partie est toujours bien plus forte que le sentiment de frustration que certains pourraient redouter. Pour toutes ces raisons, Saros est sans le moindre doute un titre à ne manquer sous aucun prétexte en cette fin avril 2026.

game that improves to 100 everything good that it had and with much more history and places to explore and the theme of the eclipse, brutal
