GamingBolt - The Chant - 10 Things To Know About This Third Person Horror Action-Adventure Game
Added 48 Views / 0 LikesNext month is fairly jam-packed in terms of releases, whether it's the eagerly-awaited Pokemon Scarlet and Violet or even Sonic Frontiers. However, if you're looking for a narrative horror title, that too on the double-A scale, then The Chant may be worth keeping an eye on. Developed by Brass Token and published by Prime Matter, it's out on November 3rd for PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC. Let's take a look at ten things you should know before jumping in

GamingBolt - The Last Oricru Review - The Final Verdict
Added 48 Views / 0 LikesThe Last Oricru is not a game I would generally recommend. For every thing I really liked, there were at least two or three adjacent blunders making my eyes roll into the back of my skull. While the negatives and positives do end up mostly canceling each other out for me, I’m not going to sit here and say it’s a complete failure or does nothing well. But given that it exists in a sea of other similar games where it so often fails to keep its head abov

GamingBolt - NHL 23 Review - The Final Verdict
Added 48 Views / 0 LikesUltimately, NHL 23 feels best suited to series newcomers. It’s a solid release, with a wealth of fresh animations and finetuned AI delivering a more authentic experience but it’s likely to feel like DLC rather than a new game to players of last year’s edition.

GamingBolt - The Chant Review - The Final Verdict
Added 47 Views / 0 LikesThe Chant tries to do so many things at once, and what happens is that everything gets muddled up in that pursuit - and none of these elements get the love and opportunity to shine as bright as they could. In addition to this, an underdeveloped plot that doesn’t do justice with its heavy themes and otherwise well-written characters alongside an underwhelming visual presentation also contributes to the feeling of the game being a missed opportunity.

GamingBolt - Crisis Core: Final Fantasy 7 Reunion Review - The Final Verdict
Added 47 Views / 0 LikesAs long as you're calibrating your expectations, you're likely to have a blast with Crisis Core: Final Fantasy 7 Reunion. It looks sharp, the combat is a lot of fun, and the story, for all of its issues, has its bright spots, especially if you're invested in the Final Fantasy 7 universe. Sure, crucial aspects of the experience have clearly not aged very well, but there's still more than enough here to attract not only those who've played the original

GamingBolt - WWE 2K23 Review - The Final Verdict
Added 47 Views / 0 LikesWWE 2K23 feels like a good step up from its predecessor. However, the game has to do quite a bit to justify its existence when WWE 2K22 still exists and is still perfectly playable. For those who may not be too interested in the updated roster, thankfully, the new MyRise offers quite a bit of gameplay in its own right. The creators among us will definitely find the AI tuning an incredible new feature which, while basic, will hopefully get better flesh

GamingBolt - The Devil in Me Review - The Final Verdict
Added 46 Views / 0 LikesWhile some of The Dark Pictures Anthology: The Devil in Me's characterizations feel a bit too flat to really make the cast pop, and the more extreme moments of the story didn’t quite work for me, it’s hard to deny that this Dark Pictures entry has more going for it than not. The new ideas it introduces into the formula might ultimately be too few and far between to totally make up for some of the lingering issues that have held back these games since

7 Video Game Characters You Thought Were Dead But Came Back To Haunt You

The Full Story of Freya - Before You Play God of War Ragnarok
Added 45 Views / 0 LikesKratos and Atreus are the heart and soul of God of War (2018), but the game's got a core cast of crucial characters around them- and in that group, the one character that is probably the most crucial to the story is Freya. Introduced at first as a mysterious witch who lives all by herself in the woods, Freya goes from being a casual acquaintance to a fast friend, and from a fast friend to a sworn enemy- which is the role that she is going to play in G

GamingBolt - WRC Generations Review - The Final Verdict
Added 45 Views / 0 LikesFor the most part, WRC Generations seems to round out the ups and downs of the previous few games with an arguably ideal combination of what worked best in recent installments. While I wish it went further than surface level with its upgrades, it has by no means phoned in this entry. Its gameplay is just deep enough for big-time enthusiasts to justify spending dozens of hours in, while its learning curve is just shallow enough for more casual or arcad

It combines turn-based tactical gameplay with a fun story set in an immensely-interesting and fleshed-out world. While its gameplay isn’t going to seem too deep for anyone that’s spent some time with modern real time strategy games, it still manages to offer a decent amount of challenge and tactical options, especially once you start unlocking magical abilities that help you man

GamingBolt - Harvestella Review - The Final Verdict
Added 44 Views / 0 LikesThe easiest way to describe Harvestella is as a classic example of an unpolished yet enjoyable AA game, of which we've seen quite a few in recent months, from The DioField Chronicle to Valkyrie Elysium. It's rough around the edges, it doesn't shake up any formulas, and it doesn't ever come close to setting any new standards in its genre, but it's not an unenjoyable game. In trying to be both a farming sim and an action RPG, it ends up failing to make

Even so, this is far from the end of the series itself- there are, of course, going to be more God of War games, even if it might be a while before ano

Added 43 Views / 0 LikesGotham Knights is a beautiful-looking game with many strong suits, and on a high end PC hardware, it will likely blow you away with its vistas. However, the game still runs on Unreal Engine 4 and it’s not something that hasn’t been done before. Part of that could be the developer’s insistence on sticking to Unreal Engine 4 instead of shifting to the newer UE5, but either way - there’s a constant feeling that it could have been so much better since the
