8/10
Throughout my time in Metal Eden, I couldn’t help but imagine just how good a sequel I hope Reikon makes could be. This is a great start in the FPS genre for the team; its ideas are strong, and with refinement, Aska’s next mission could be as excellent as the Ghostrunner and Doom Eternal adventures it’s clearly inspired by. Though the star of the show – its first-person shooting and movement – is sometimes weighed down by an overreaching narrative and boring morph ball sections, when Metal Eden shines, it’s as bright as the sun that sheds light on Moebius’ dark underbelly.

7/10
Metal Eden's fast-paced gameplay loop and harrowing sci-fi setting serve as a solid backdrop for arena combat, but be prepared for a whole lot of talking.

7/10
Metal Eden hits hard with relentless combat and style, but a short campaign, thin exploration, and a forgettable story keep its spark from lasting.

Well made fast paced sci fi fps
I've read that it's 5-6 hours long and that's really good. Too many games are padded to artificially last 10+ hours. I prefer good or excellent 3-4 hour games. Graphics and sound and voices are excellent. Cut scenes are beautiful. I really like the scifi setting and design, reminds me of Vanquish (2010). The gameplay is fast fps, not something I prefer, but so far it's interesting to me and it plays well. The story is interesting, I think. Feels like a comment on humans trying to achieve perfection - at what cost? Bought it for 24 euro, played for 30-60 minutes when writing this. Edit: 2,5 hours in and at small doses of about 30-45 minutes, it's a really enjoyable and good looking game. It reminds me graphically of many scifi games I've played before.

Solid core
The game does one thing really well: it really makes you feel like you are playing an elite super soldier. Fast, agile movement combined with nice gunplay, especially with the choice of an smg as your default weapon really help deliver that feeling. The music is also pretty nice. The story manages to be both very predictable and feel very random at the same time, The visuals are bice, but sometimes the filters put over the map makes it hard to appreciate things when everything is just tinted one color. I'm also not a big fan of the ammo sharing between weapons. The game wants to encourage you to swap weapons and collect ammo pickups and imho it feels overdone. You have to switch between weapons to deal with armor anyways and they already have very limited ammo capacities, we are talking one backup mag for each weapon. There is no real reason to have weapons of the same type share ammo as well. Most of the fights it's not so much an issue, but there are one or two that get quite annoying, and they aren't even boss fights. And that's on normal, I don't feel particularly tempted to try the harder difficulties, unlike in DOOM 2016. The game is very short, ~ 5 hours, but I'll take a short campaign over something repetitive like Boltgun which started to overstay its welcome at around the 4h mark.

Awesome shooter, Doom Eternal-style
I just finished Metal Eden (ME) on the hard difficulty and I loved it. You play as Aska, a "Hyper unit", a sort of cyborg super soldier that is tasked with finding some sort of cores from a space station that takes the shape of a sprawling mega city. That is basically all you need to know about the story: ME is a game that focuses on gameplay with fast paced action, tight shooting and difficult fights in mostly arena battles were Aska is facing waves of robotic enemies and humanesque soldiers. Besides the arena battles, the game has some platforming sections focusing on wall running while traversing the city which gives a great sense of speed and gives some nice variety to the experience. The essential gameplay loop in combat focuses on "core extraction" from enemies, essentially ripping out their robot hearts and consuming these which gives Aska back some health and temporarily boosting her speed, damage output and the ability to bash enemies with hard hitting punches. The extraction mechanic has a timer and so does health-, armor and ammo pickups in the arena so you need to time your actions and collect these repeatedly during fights to stay alive. ME is very similar to Doom Eternal in terms of pace and style but in my opinion it has a more satisfying rythm to it, on the hard setting the combat is indeed tough and challenging but less punishing than Doom Eternal and thus feels a lot less frustrating when you fail. Being an AA game, it is obviously smaller in scope but besides some bug where certain button prompts won't work (like consuming a core or latching on to grappling points when you mash the buttons) it feels very polished and ran great on my system. ME is an absolutely gorgeous game with great sound effects so if you have capable hardware you are in for an absolute treat. All in all, this is a real gem that hardcore shooter fans really ought to try!
