[h1]An absolute peak game[/h1] With insane bosses, cool survivor mechanics, and incredible maps, every playthrough feels different with a completely different build. And don't even get me started on the music. Chris is just built different. Whatever genre of metal it is, it's just pure badass. Honestly, all the DLCs are badass too, no cap. [h1]10/10[h1]
I started playing this game 2 days ago and already have 21+ hours on it, pretty safe to say that I think it's a good game. 🥹
Game continually gets new updates and new content + no paid cosmetics or microtransactions, and some people still find a way to complain. 10/10 game.
