However, beyond the shine of being one of the first real next-gen games I’ve played so far, I’m disappointed to report that The Pathless ended up being less compelling than either of its spiritual predecessors. ![]() The Pathless follows the PlayStation standard of offering both a performance and a resolution mode. I also expected it to add something new to the formula and reinvigorate it – especially since ABZÛ came out all the way back in 2016 and since The Pathless was one of the handful of games that had a next-gen version ready for the launch of the PlayStation 5. So then, since The Pathless at least reaches for the same exact things, I naturally expected the game to be a winner for me. I am absolutely in love with everything that game has to offer: the stunning presentation, the master-class soundtrack from Austin Wintory, the intricate yet subtle backstory and the fluid gameplay. It is important that I now mention that Journey is one of my favourite games of all-time. ![]() ![]() In fact, the three games all share some of the same talent: Journey art director Matt Nava formed Giant Squid in 2013 which then went on to release ABZÛ in 2016 and now The Pathless in 2020. The Pathless is an action-adventure game which comes in the wake of indie darlings such as Journey and ABZÛ.
