Before anything else, I have to state that I have zero love for Ubisoft. None. Still, even a broken clock can be right twice a day! This is one of those times.

Immortals: Fenyx Rising is a quality game with decent humor, beautiful & colorful visuals and enjoyable (if not particularly deep or original) combat mechanics and a array puzzles ranging from good to mediocre. It's a game where you'll stop every so often to just look around and appreciate how lush and pretty everything is.

I cannot rightly compare it to Breath of the Wild, as I have not played that game. It's obviously "inspired" by BotW. Unlikely that it's better on any level ... but It's NOT a cheap knock-off.

It's a COMPETENT knock-off with personality of its own. I can respect that!

Definitely wait for a good sale. Good as it may be it's not worth $40 for base game plus all the DLC nickel and diming b.s. - and for a game that came out 4 years ago now (an eternity in gaming). If you keep an eye out though, the whole package goes on discount every so often. I grabbed the whole set for about $20, and that feels like the right pricing for this game in 2026.

I was obsessed with this game when I played it. It is brilliant. I'm a huge fan of Greek mythology so I might be biased, but damn is this game good. It's funny, it's colourful, it's fun, and it's got everything you want in an open world RPG!

I have played several RPGs before. I can say, without any doubt, that I have never experieced a better RPG other than this. Not Skyrim, not anything else. This is the definition of a perfect videogame. It is flawless in every sense.
