Saros & PS5 PRO: A masterclass in gameplay and performance
Saros is one of the best gameplay experiences I’ve ever had.
Controls and responsiveness are super smooth, even more so than Returnal, which is saying a lot.
Combat is amazing as well, from the way the weapons feel and sound to enemy design/variety and the bosses, many of which are memorable.
The art direction really shines on the PRO. It doesn’t give you many options in terms of settings but it looks and runs flawlessly. I didn’t have any crashes or bugs during my playthrough (20+ hours).
Also, along with Astrobot, it might be the best showcase for the Dualsense I’ve experienced so far. Very immersive, the controller feels like a core feature of the game.
I rolled credits a couple of days ago, got the true ending and I’m currently doing runs experimenting with the modifiers to increase difficulty. I hope there’s DLC in the near future, with more variety and challenges it could have a lot of replayability.
I really recommend Saros for those looking for a fast sci-fi action shooter that pushes the PRO and the Dualsense. For now is my game of the year. Have a great weekend everyone.
