- Hobby consoler Sep 29, 202272It’s a shame there are so many underutilized elements, because Valkyrie Elysium has all the tools to reach Valhalla. Even then, if you like action RPGs and nordic mythology, you’re going to love the gameplay thanks to a really great combat system.

The level design and objectives feel at least two generations old and the characters and storyline are more like placeholders than the finished article. There’s no capital F feelings here or much in the way of narrative justification, but if you’re okay with that and you just want fifteen to twenty hours of fast, frantic, fluid combat then we can just about recommend this one.
- IGN FranceSep 29, 202250An episode without ambition or soul, carried at arm’s length by a pleasant gameplay and a sublime ost.
