+ Wonderful overall aesthetics + Simple yet rewarding gameplay + Soothing and heartwarming OST - Repetitive combat (Reviewed on Nintendo Switch, also available on PC, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X)
95%Ori and the Will of the Wisps Review
Ori and the Will of the Wisps is a fantastic sequel that improves upon its predecessor in multiple ways. While the new combat focus admittedly doesn’t fit well with the story, it’s still a tonne of fun, and coupled with the new autosave feature, ensures a more fast-paced and fluid style of play. Combined with the endearing story book vibe and jaw-dropping platforming spectacles, Will of the Wisps is easily one of the best titles in the Xbox’s first-party library.
