You enter the game with the Sword of Achilles and as you progress through the first part of the story, which takes place in the Clashing Rocks, you gain the Ax of Atalanta and Bow of Odysseus (which uses the Arrows of Apollo). The last two areas of the game are devoted to Zeus and Typhon. And finally, the Grove of Kleos is filled with royal blue, vibrant blue ponds, and olive trees across the area. The Forge Lands is mechanical in nature with automatons across the zone. War’s Den is a battlefield riddled with giants and broken weapons and sand. The Valley of Eternal Spring is a lush land with teal and purples and vibrant gardens. Each of these lands is beautifully brought to life by the art team and embody the gods they represent. For the first areas, the Valley of Eternal Spring, War’s Den, the Forge Lands, and Grove of Kleos you work through different questlines dedicated to Aphrodite, Ares, Hephaistus, and Athena respectively. Once you’ve created your version of Fenyx, you begin yours story on the Clashing Rocks and work your way through different zones devoted to different gods: The Valley of Eternal Spring, War’s Den, the Forge Lands, Grove of Kleos, King’s Peak, and finally the Gates of Tartarus.Įach god has had their essence stolen, specifically, the things that make them imperfect in Typhon’s eyes and it’s your quest to get them back and make the pantheon whole again. This means that you can choose your voice options and physical features in any combination. While the character creation isn’t robust, it does offer options not locked by gender. Your first step in Fenyx’s story is to create them. Their dueling personalities serve for comedic relief, with Prometheus presenting emotional retellings of Greek mythology and providing helpful tips to the player while Zeus interjects with humor as the typical party-boy. This belief leads him to challenge Zeus that if Fenyx can destroy Typhon then he should be released from his eternal imprisonment. On the other hand, Prometheus believes in humanity, which is the reason why he’s chained to a mountain. Zeus believes humanity is beyond saving and that Fenyx won’t be able to come close to saving his children and defeating Typhon. As dual narrators, they narrate your quest as you master the legendary powers of the gods, overcome heroic trials, and confront powerful mythological beasts. Once a storyteller, now you’re the center of a story told by Prometheus to Zeus. Shipwrecked on the Golden Isle, which is home to the gods, Fenyx is thrust into the center of a fight between the Titan Typhon and the Greek gods. In the game, you play as Fenyx, a shield-bearer, and storyteller who has lived in their brother’s shadow. Developed by Ubisoft Quebec, Immortals Fenyx Rising is an open-world adventure with RPG qualities that brings back the importance of puzzles and platforming. ![]() That said, Immortals Fenyx Rising manages the tragedy and darkness of Greek mythology with a vibrant color palette, hyper-stylized design, and humor that helps the game deliver its message: you don’t need to be perfect. It’s honestly one reason I’ve stayed away from playing some heavier AAA titles that have come out this year. This year has been heavy, for a multitude of reasons.
