About ELEX

In a seamless post-apocalyptic world named Magalan, players explore an action RPG blending sci-fi and fantasy elements. Mutated creatures inhabit this science fantasy environment alongside humans, while combat involves tactical close-range and ranged attacks against enemies. A jetpack allows vertical movement to reach high locations within the open world. Choices determine whether emotions or synthetic logic control society, and resources grant magic powers that may alter player behavior. Interconnected quests support decisions made during gameplay in this third-person adventure. The main story takes about 27 hours, extending to roughly 50 with extras and reaching approximately 85 for a completionist run. This single-player experience features Gothic influences and focuses on exploration and tactical engagement. It is rated Playable on Steam Deck. Development is by Piranha Bytes, and THQ Nordic handles publishing.Read more

ELEX Critic Reviews and Review Scores

EurogamerRichie Shoemaker

Hokey, uneven and janky, Elex is nonetheless a compelling throwback to a time before open worlds became choose your own to-do lists.

The best-case scenario for ELEX is that it'll be worth picking up on sale a year or two from now after it's been heavily patched to fix its rampant bugs and infuriating balance problems. It has enough good ideas that one day it might be talked about as one of those hidden RPG gems that people play and wonder why it wasn't successful at launch. But the frothy mix of joy and frustration that ELEX presents today skews too heavily toward the latter. I wish it well, but I don't think I'll be calling it up for a second date.

Inventive in some ways and stagnant in others, Elex will appeal to die-hard RPG fans and few others.

Elex is an open-world RPG that aims big, but only manages to shoot itself in the foot.
