"A Solid Foundation": Assassin's Creed Nexus VR Review

Assassin's Creed Nexus VR isn't without its weak points, but the franchise's Leap of Faith into virtual real mostly sticks the landing.

Assassin's Creed Nexus VR brings together the power fantasy of being an assassin and the pleasures of virtual tourism in a faithful and immersive virtual reality experience.
The VR gameplay strikes a balance between realism and arcade elements, with automatic parkour and simplistic combat mechanics. The verticality of the parkour adds thrill, but combat feels sluggish and lacks depth.
The game offers great accessibility options and minor bugs, allowing players to customize their experience. The graphics are hampered by hardware limitations, but the historical cities still come to life. Fans of the franchise and nostalgic players will appreciate revisiting past locations and the decent storytelling.
