Critic Reviews6
I struggled for days to get the game to run correctly on my Series X, and even then, once I could play I had to contend with glitching through the environments and fighting with the static camera which made seeing some enemies off screen impossible. Not to mention the aforementioned lack of any real goals or objectives that are posted for players to follow. There were times where I wondered around killing hordes of Raknos, just leveling up because I couldn’t figure out where to go next. Again, these are all odd design choices, and I really think there was budget cuts or something that stopped these developers from being able to properly finish this title. Sadly, as it is, I can’t really recommend this to anyone because whatever little good it may do, the bad outweighs it by quite a bit.

Blackwind is a fun game that could be way better if it wasn’t for its camera, which acts again the experience at times.

Blackwind is a hack n slash Sci-Fi adventure title filled with gratuitous violence. You explore, work together, and gain new abilities to reach previously locked locations. It has a great story but the acting is wooden and tired.
