Vanquish

A great port of an entertainingly subversive cover shooter. It's short, but the core loop never gets old.

Is Vanquish the legendary success that you may have heard others describe it as? Nah, but it is a distinctive and solid good time with excellent movement and controls, and some delightfully tricksy setpiece battles.

Platinum didn't create a captivating narrative with Vanquish, but it serves as a showcase of some of their best pure action work. If you haven't had a chance to give it a shot yet you might as well with the definitive version on PC.

It may be basic as a remaster, but Vanquish manages to hold up in the PS4's twilight year. Brimming with enjoyable, fast-paced action which is exemplified by the knee slide, one of PlatinumGames' best experiences has a new lease of life that it's going to take full advantage of. Vanquish doesn't look the part, but it most certainly plays like it.

Even after nearly seven years, Vanquish still has some of the best combat of any action game.

Vanquish is a game without a deep story, with perfect gameplay and the possibility to mess around. It is a very hilarious port with tons of action and some challenges that will make you sweat. The minibosses are really hilarious and even on normal difficulty they present a challenge. Unfortunately the game is very short and straightforward. I recommend buying it on sale for about under 10€, for the price it is a great piece.

It’s been approximately 9 years since the original Vanquish was released, but other than graphics, we can all agree that the gameplay and masterful storytelling can still keep the player entertained throughout the whole playthrough

Vanquish remains an absolute blast to play. Fans of old-school action games and flashy third-person shooters should definitely give it a shot.

Vanquish is a hack&slash game divided into 5 acts. The game will have a campaign about 4-5 hours. If you don't play the original game, this is a good opportunity to do it.

Vanquish is one of the best Third person Shooter ever made and it's also one of the most unique ones. It's so nice that now we can play its smooth remastered version on this generation's platforms. Either you play original Vanquish or not, Vanquish Remastered is a must-buy game for you to play, because you don't see shooters like Vanquish a lot.
