Overview
- Critics rate Housemarque’s PS5‑exclusive shooter among 2026’s best, with scores including VGC’s 5/5 and Push Square’s 9/10.
- Digital Foundry reports the PS5 Pro version uses Sony’s PSSR upscaler to target 4K and holds 60fps even during dense particle effects.
- The analysis notes a 1440p internal resolution on Pro with only minor dips, and it calls the base PS5 version acceptable though less clean.
- Reviews say Saros refines Returnal’s roguelite design with deeper combat, permanent progression, shorter runs, and player‑set modifiers.
- The game runs on Unreal Engine 5 enhanced by Housemarque’s proprietary tech, with standout particle effects that offset weaker shadows and reflections.
