About this product

Break the cycle as this award-winning third-person shooter brings bullet hell action to PC. Selene’s roguelike odyssey arrives with a suite of arresting graphical and performance-based enhancements to ensure an unforgettable journey. This includes the full Returnal experience, complete with Suspend Cycle, Photo and Co-op Modes, as well as the Tower of Sisyphus included from day one. BACKGROUND: After crash-landing on this shape-shifting world, Selene must search through the barren landscape of an ancient civilization for her escape. Isolated and alone, she finds herself fighting tooth and nail for survival. Again and again, she’s defeated – forced to restart her journey every time she dies. Through fast, relentless gameplay, you’ll discover that just as the planet changes with every cycle, so do the items at your disposal. Every loop offers new combinations, empowering you to push your boundaries and approach combat with a different strategy each time. Brought to life by stunning visual effects, the dark beauty of the decaying world around you is packed with explosive surprises. From high stakes, bullet hell-fuelled combat, to jaw-dropping twists and turns set across stark and contrasting environments. You’ll explore, discover and fight your way through an unforgiving journey, where mystery stalks your every move. Designed for extreme replayability, the procedural world of Returnal invites you to dust yourself off in the face of defeat and take on new, evolving challenges with every rebirth.

    Sweet-looking, challenging and refreshing

    Game is optimized extremely well, performance was great and kept me engaged through my 8 hours logged so far. Controls are fluid, gunplay is satisfying and fun enemy/level design. The gameplay loop is addicting and would recommend to all for a refreshing game to play with a slight challenge. No issues redeeming the code through steam.

    A fun bullet shooter

    Returnal is a fun game you'll sink 20 hours into easily. It's a roguelike third-person shooter. If you don't like that genre then you might not like this one. Would recommend playing with a dualsense controller. Got the steam code and activated with no issues.

    Not what I was expecting…

    I ordered this item online and unfortunately I did not read the description well enough. This is an item I would not have purchased for myself. It is attached to steam and I have never used that platform before. However, I take full blame for the mistake as I did not properly read the product description before purchasing.
