Unholy Review: Visually Stunning Yet Flawed Horror Experience Awaits This Friday the 13th
"Unholy" plunges players into a spine-chilling narrative set across two distinct realms: the bleak realities of a post-Soviet Eastern European town and a fearsome, nightmarish world ruled by a harsh priest caste. As you search for clues about your child's mysterious disappearance, you'll choose between confronting terror head-on or using stealth to navigate the game's intertwined worlds.
Release Date: September 13, 2024
Genre: Action, Horror, Indie, Stealth
Developer: Duality Games
Publisher: Duality Games
Platforms: PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, PC (Steam)
Highlights
- Visuals and Graphics: The game shines with its visually stunning environments that set the stage for the eerie journey.
- Weaponry and Combat: With a range of inventive weapons, the game allows for tactical engagements or stealthy evasions, enriching the strategic depth.
- Stability: The game performs smoothly, free from technical or performance issues, allowing for a seamless gaming experience.
Challenges
- Voice Acting: The performance falls short, often breaking the immersive experience rather than enhancing it.
- Character Engagement: Despite their intriguing designs, the characters lack depth and fail to forge an emotional connection with the player.
- Gameplay Fluidity: Clunky controls undermine the game's potential, detracting from an otherwise engaging experience.
- Story Development: The narrative starts strong but doesn't build much beyond the basic premise outlined at the start.
- AI Behavior: Bugs affect enemy behavior, with some getting stuck in environments or a glitch-prone final boss, frustrating players at critical moments.
Final Thoughts
While "Unholy" boasts impressive graphics and innovative gameplay elements, it struggles with execution in key areas such as character development and gameplay mechanics. As it makes its debut on consoles this Friday the 13th, it might be worth keeping an eye on how these issues are addressed in updates. If the concept intrigues you, consider experiencing "Unholy" after it has had some patches, or perhaps wait for a price reduction to ensure a value-for-money horror experience.
