Soulslike Newcomer The Immortal Legacy Scores 6/10 from GameSpot: Strong Parry Feel but Bloated Systems

Summary

Media reviews for the soulslike title The Immortal Legacy have gone live, with GameSpot awarding it a 6/10. The outlet praised the parry-focused, fast and crisp combat and satisfying executions, noting that execution animations vary by weapon. The first-person melee foundation is rounded out by firearms, magic, wall-running abilities and separate upgrade trees for each weapon. Short but engaging environmental storytelling, delivered through fragmentary scenes, effectively conveys the desperation and sacrifice of civilians in war and is described as the most moving part of the narrative. The drawbacks are substantial, however: too much time is spent on tutorials, and the various weapons and abilities have no meaningful impact on actual play. Enemy variety is limited, with players repeatedly facing the same infantry and dogs, while overly forgiving checkpoints dilute difficulty and the tension of death. The redemption arc of protagonist William Dorset is called empty and uninteresting, and the few supporting characters lack presence. GameSpot concludes that the game stuffs too much into the soulslike framework, weakening a core experience that could have been stronger, leaving the overall package mixed. For players, the combat base is decent but the slow opening and bloated systems warrant caution; for the industry, it adds to the debate over whether soulslikes should do less.
