Immortals: Fenyx Rising: Myths of the Eastern Realm
This could be to Immortals what Spider-Man: Miles Morales is to Spider-Man — A fresh, tight, bite-sized piece of what makes the base game so likeable.

The gameplay in "Immortals Fenyx Rising: Myths of the Eastern Realm" features familiar mechanics with some new puzzle elements that add variety, but overall, it lacks significant innovation and depth compared to the main game. While the new setting is visually appealing, the experience may feel repetitive for players seeking fresh gameplay ideas, making it more suitable for those who enjoyed the original's puzzle-solving aspects.
“Immortals Fenyx Rising: Myths of the Eastern Realm gives us a fresh protagonist, a completely new setting, familiar mechanics, and a few new tricks.”
“The beautiful and stylized new setting, along with new puzzle mechanics, shakes things up with fresh logic puzzles, providing a dozen hours or more of additional content.”
“The same solid gameplay of the original game is present, complemented by new puzzle mechanics.”
“A lack of new ideas, underscored by old mechanics repackaged with new names, makes Ancient China feel stale and shallow.”
“Quite short, 'Ku' lacks charm compared to 'Fenyx', and there are not enough new additions to gameplay.”
“Lacking the good writing and the hilarious characters of the main campaign, not to mention any major gameplay change, this DLC expansion is a worthwhile purchase only for those who haven't had enough of the puzzle-solving seen in Fenyx's adventure.”

Immortals Fenyx Rising's Myths of the Eastern Realm DLC is a noble effort by Ubisoft Chengdu to infuse new and rarely touched upon mythology into the mainstream of games. Though mainly a reskin of the base game, fans should enjoy this godly romp.

Conceptually promising, but more of an empty, shoddy mimic than anything else. Fans of the base game have already seen everything this has to offer.
