Unfortunately, however, Redfall isn’t a very successful experiment. Redfall is Arkane’s first ever open world title, its first ever game with a full-fledged co-op suite, and it puts a much greater emphasis on action than the gameplay pillars you’d usually associate with the studio.Ĭhange isn’t necessarily always a bad thing, and on no few occasions, talented developers have broken the mould and delivered something outside of their comfort zone that ends up impressing in completely different ways- and Arkane is nothing if not a talented developer. With its newest game however, the developer is changing tack. With the likes of Dishonored and Prey, time and time again, Arkane has delivered games that boast incredible settings and put emergent gameplay and player agency at the forefront in increasingly unique and creative ways. At this point in time, it’s indisputable that there’s no better developer out there than Arkane Studios when it comes to immersive sims.
