Find out what the critics have been saying about the acclaimed title down below:
Taking cues from other side-scrolling single-player platformers, a ‘la Hollow Knight and Ori and The Blind Forest, Greak: Memories of Azur is an indie action-adventure experience that boasts an eye-catchingly gorgeous painterly art-style combined with some zippy, pick-up-and-play gameplay.
Centering on a trio of siblings with their own unique abilities – which you can switch between on the fly – the narrative focuses on the family’s escape from an evil invasion.
It’s worth noting that the game is already available on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and PC, as it released on those platforms earlier this year. Those of you who own Greak: Memories of Azur on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S will be able to download the previous gen versions at no extra cost.
