Immortals of Aveum tells a dull tale in an extremely irritating way, but at least has some fun, engaging shooting. I just wish it had a few ideas of its own.

2/5 stars
Mixing repetitive, imprecise combat with annoying characters and a landslide of nonsensical, proper noun-stuffed lore, Immortals of Aveum is almost so bad it’s good. If only.

8/10
Immortals of Aveum is an impressively confident first-person shooter with a hearty solo campaign and fast-paced, spellcasting combat that’s spectacular to watch.

| ACG | Jeremy Penter | Not Recommended | 08-21-2023 | Some fun here and there, runs better than I expected and that smoothness helps it, but the game just isn’t that enjoyable as you continue to play. It just sort of falls apart until its so rote that it feels more mechanical than many others | Read review |
| Atomix | Aldo López | 78 / 100 | 08-22-2023 | Ascendant Studios made a good first try with this game, which if you manage to dominate in combat can be entertaining for the user, especially with the amount of magic available. Of course, I would not recommend it to everyone, since some technical and repetition aspects may not be completely pleasing, especially those who do not have patience. | Read review |
| But Why Tho? | Mick Abrahamson | 6.5 / 10 | 08-26-2023 | Immortals of Aveum at its core is a fun take on the shooter genre. Yet it quickly bogs itself down with an over-complicated story and an unnecessary gearing system. Set in a new world that’s fun to explore, Aveum has the potential to be a great universe to revisit in the future. | Read review |
| CGMagazine | Philip Watson | 9 / 10 | 08-22-2023 | Immortals of Aveum is a must-play title for all fans of FPS and story-driven content but may isolate those unfamiliar with the genre. | Read review |
| Checkpoint Gaming | Luke Mitchell | 8.5 / 10 | 08-22-2023 | Immortals of Aveum boldly attempts to deliver an epic cinematic experience about a war involving magic, and it succeeds in its ambition. Fast-paced combat that places the game firmly in the shooter genre combine with satisfying platforming and puzzle-solving to make for an adventure that stays focused on its linear story while offering extra secrets for those who want to explore beyond its core narrative. There’s some repetition here and there that can be frustrating, but when you’re blasting colourful magic spells across battlefields of enemies like a violent fireworks display, it’s hard not to be impressed. Visually stunning with an excellently committed cast, Immortals of Aveum is a satisfying adventure and an impressive debut from a studio clearly not afraid to defy expectations. | Read review |
| Chicas Gamers | Juanma Luengo | Recommended | 08-28-2023 | If there is one thing that is clear to us after playing with Immortals of Aveum, it is that we are facing one of this year’s GOTY candidates. Although it is not a perfect game, it is extremely fun thanks to its combat system and the development of the story and characters. We definitely recommend it to all lovers of single-player adventures because they will enjoy it enormously. | Read review |
| COGconnected | James Paley | 85 / 100 | 08-21-2023 | I had a ton of fun with Immortals. The combat is snappy, explosive, and smooth. Everything looks amazing, just a colossal colorful assault on the senses at every turn. The puzzles are a pleasant distraction. The writing has its ups and downs, to be sure, but the story itself is a proper ride. I truly can’t get enough of the word Everwar. I could have used a bit less quipping in the dialogue, however. While the combat occasionally got frustrating, it’s nothing a little practice (and difficulty adjustment) can’t fix. Traversal is a good time, even if the dodge cooldown feels excessive. If your first-person shooters have felt too serious lately, take heart! Immortals of Aveum is a magic-soaked, colorful romp that grips hard and doesn’t let go. | Read review |
| Daily Star | Tom Hutchison | 3.5 / 5 stars | 08-23-2023 | Gamers should enjoy its change of pace and it’s a shame there was no attempt at a multiplayer as I suspect that’d be this game’s shining mode. | Read review |
| Dexerto | Brad Norton | 4 / 5 stars | 08-22-2023 | For a first outing, Ascendant Studios has hit a home run. The team has established an incredible foundation for a universe we only hope we can continue exploring for years to come. | Read review |
| Digital Chumps | Dillon Sweeney | 6 / 10 | 08-23-2022 | Immortals of Aveum is a blockbuster action game. Much like superhero movies, it excels in combat but loses its heat in the story with lackluster dialogue and a hurried narrative. The cornerstone of Immortals is its graphics. The characters and environments were expertly crafted, highlighting the strong motion-captured characters. It was always refreshing to see how all the colors were utilized in each mission of the game. Excellent level design and fast-paced gameplay made a wonderful pair. | Read review |
| Digital Trends | Tomas Franzese | 3.5 / 5 stars | 08-22-2023 | I went into Immortals of Aveum expecting a linear experience akin to Call of Duty but found a game with unexpectedly vast levels, a world rich with intriguing lore, and vibrant combat that kept me on my toes. It’s a solid choice for those looking for an inventive shooter that stands out from the crowd in that genre, although boring puzzles and cloying dialogue drain some magic out of the experience. | Read review |

| Expansive | Laurie Jones | 6 / 10 | 08-25-2023 | Immortals of Aveum has some real promise, offering a dynamic, fulfilling combat system that makes you think and keeps you on your toes. There’s a rich world offered here, with some beautiful environments and an enjoyable core loop. However, the story, forgettable characters and erratic performance really harm its prospects and hold it back from its full potential. | Read review |
| Game Informer | Wesley LeBlanc | 8 / 10 | 08-21-2023 | Delivering something different and unique in a genre clogged with games set in real-world wars and battles, or at least meant to emulate them, is a commendable effort and pays off here for Ascendant. Immortals of Aveum is a great first outing, mixing the fantasy genre’s vibes, storytelling, and world exploration with the gunplay of a modern shooter. Its magic action almost always feels great, except when the game’s performance turns a fun explosion of magic and colors into a muddy mess. The story, which took me 16 hours to get through, is predictable but competent enough to get Jak to the next set piece, and there’s plenty left to explore and accomplish after rolling credits that I’m excited to check out. Ascendant made a good call emphasizing exploration and combative puzzle-solving just as much as its first-person action, and Immortals of Aveum is proof this genre still has a lot of room to grow outside of the usual, expected releases. | Read review |
| Game Rant | Adrian Morales | 3.5 / 5 stars | 08-21-2023 | There is plenty to praise when considering that this is Ascendant’s debut game and how it ended up being an incredibly competent and entertaining experience that manages to pull off a solid combat system and a fun story. However, there really isn’t much that feels new or particularly interesting otherwise. It is clear that a lot of thought and care has been put into all systems of Immortals of Aveum, from its shooting to its puzzles, but none of it is compelling enough for another playthrough. Immortals of Aveum is well-executed, easy to digest, and remarkably solid, but overall incredibly familiar. Still, it may pleasantly surprise more than one shooter fan, and has enough going for it to likely attract a dedicated audience. | Read review |
| Gameblog | KiKiToes | 6 / 10 | 08-22-2023 | Immortals of Aveum, by virtue of its story, has obvious appeal. It’s the game of a lifetime for a developer who knows what he’s talking about, the raison d’être of a brand new studio, an independent AAA that isn’t really one… For the gamer, it’s a very edgy FPS that’s off the beaten track while still offering a familiar feel. Ascend Studio’s title makes for a great time if you put aside its obvious technical problems, which unfortunately do it a bit of a disservice. But the fact remains that Immortals of Aveum has a lot going for it. There’s a rich universe to discover, a whole world to explore, and some nerve-wracking if slightly chaotic combat… It’s a shame that the technical side isn’t always up to scratch on the PS5, because this would be a more than solid magical FPS, but as it stands it’s sorely lacking in polish. But that doesn’t mean it’s a failure, just a date that could have gone a little better, but that we enjoyed nonetheless. | Read review |
| GamePro | Annika Bavendiek | 80 / 100 | 08-22-2023 | Immortals of Aveum brings a breath of fresh air to the FPS genre with its peculiarities. Just right for fun solo action in between. | Read review |
| Gamers Heroes | Blaine Smith | 7 / 10 | 08-22-2023 | Immortals of Aveum is a worthwhile and interesting spin on a genre that is renowned for its lack of drive and innovation. It features an engaging and rewarding combat system backed up by an excellent narrative in a fleshed out and immersive fantasy setting that wouldn’t feel at all out of place in a Netflix show. | Read review |
| GAMES.CH | Olaf Bleich | 78 / 100 | 08-22-2023 | “Immortals of Aveum” surprised us positively for long stretches, but above all it entertained us very well. Despite obvious weaknesses, such as the overall boring game world and the story, which is too much based on fantasy clichés, the first-person adventure always brought us back to the action. The fights are very varied thanks to the wide range of magic possibilities and, despite all the speed, also offer a good deal of complexity and tactics. The controls prove to be first-class during battles or even exploration of the environment. And even though “Immortals of Aveum” would certainly have been more possible in terms of story and game world, the game still delivers over 20 hours of good shooter entertainment. | Read review |
| GameSpot | Jordan Ramée | 5 / 10 | 08-22-2023 | The first-person shooter action of Immortals of Aveum suffers from a difficult-to-navigate control scheme and lackluster story. | Read review |
| GamesRadar+ | Rick Lane | 3 / 5 stars | 08-22-2023 | Immortals of Aveum puts a fun twist on FPS conventions, and delivers upon its promise of colorful, exciting magical combat. But the story and worldbuilding are undermined by a cringeworthy script, and the half-baked loot system and metroidvania elements betray a lack of confidence in the central premise. | Read review |
| Gaming Nexus | Jason Dailey | 8.5 / 10 | 08-22-2023 | EA was smart to snatch up the rights to Immortals of Aveum. It’s an impressive debut from Ascendant Studio, featuring a refreshing take on FPS combat, a great fantasy story with loads of interesting lore, and an endearing cast of characters. Bottom line – I can’t wait to see what Ascendant does next. | Read review |
| GamingBolt | Ravi Sinha | 5 / 10 | 08-28-2023 | Immortals of Aveum starts promising but quickly suffers a litany of flaws. It does have some good-looking visuals but is often awkward when it’s not downright unwieldy to play. | Read review |
| GamingTrend | Cassie Peterson | 85 / 100 | 08-21-2023 | Immortals of Aveum is a bright and ambitious title that lays a solid foundation for Ascendant Studios’ future in the industry. The gameplay is solid, the world is beautiful, and I feel compelled to return to continue exploring. | Read review |
| GBAtemp | Ben Sellwood | 7.4 / 10 | 08-24-2023 | If you like simple shooters and want to mix it up with spellcasting magic, a bit of platforming, and minimal RPG elements; IoA is definitely a game you should pick up. I had a blast going through its various crusades and regardless of needing to know exactly what was going on half the time I managed to call several of the plot twists long before they happened. | Read review |
| God is a Geek | Mick Fraser | 8 / 10 | 08-25-2023 | Immortals of Aveum is polished to a high shine and just deep enough to leave a lasting impression. | Read review |
| GRYOnline.pl | Paweł Musiolik | 7 / 10 | 08-22-2023 | Immortals of Aveum is a perfect game for a subscription service. It has its flaws, but most of them can be easily eliminated in the future. However, I can’t shake the feeling that this game has been left for dead even though it is really cool. | Read review |
| Hardcore Gamer | Jordan Helm | 3 / 5 stars | 08-22-2023 | Less a case of biting off more than it can chew, Immortals of Aveum instead serves up a mixed bag of notable creativity, dragged down by issues both narrative and technical alike. | Read review |
| Hey Poor Player | Unknown | 4.5 / 5 stars | 08-21-2023 | With its supernatural shootouts, some may dismiss Immortals of Aveum as Call of Duty with magic, but it’s so much more than that. It has the mechanics to spice up combat in all the right ways, even if it’s a bit of a learning curve, and battles can get very hectic because of how much there is to keep track of. A slight misstep in the prologue is easily forgotten about when you watch the rest of the story unfold, skillfully dodging the usual military-esque tropes that tend to follow a genre like this, instead giving us solidly built and enjoyable characters to flesh out a damn fine world-building suite. If a mystical boomer shooter sounds like a magical time, Immortals of Aveum is sure to leave you under its spell. | Read review |
| Hobby Consolas | Daniel Quesada | 90 / 100 | 08-22-2023 | Chapeau for EA for sponsoring a game that brings its own ideas and does so with good billing. It is a large, dynamic and increasingly attractive shooter, although some facets seem more “template”. | Read review |

| IGN Italy | Angelo Bianco | 8 / 10 | 08-22-2023 | In some ways, Immortals of Aveum can be seen as a wasted opportunity to give shooter fans a memorable experience with an outstanding graphics. Instead, Ascendant Studios’ debut game turned out to be just a good first-person shooter that entertains without being boring, thanks to a surprising RPG component and gameplay that excellently does its job of entertaining players. In addition to a decent story and a not particularly long campaign, Immortals of Aveum also has to contend with a less-than-stable frame-rate and other flaws that do not allow it to be one of the best shooters of the last years. | Read review |
| IGN Spain | Mario Seijas | 8 / 10 | 08-22-2023 | Immortals of Aveum borrows a lot from other genres and brings us a frenetic first-person experience full of explosions, lights and color. It spices it all up with a surprisingly complex story for its genre and an exhilarating difficulty that invites you to continuously vary your combat style. | Read review |
| Impulsegamer | Chris O’Connor | 5 / 5 stars | 08-25-2023 | It’s always nice to see a new I.P. enter the market… especially one with impressive pedigree on the creative team and a new world rich with lore and excitement. Welcome to Immortals of Aveum. | Read review |
| LevelUp | Ulises Contreras | 7.5 / 10 | 08-24-2023 | Immortals of Aveum introduces some captivating concepts, albeit with a few hiccups in execution. The combat system can be a bit perplexing, and the narrative takes its sweet time to get going without delivering the expected excitement. Additionally, technical performance issues crop up. Nevertheless, our time spent with this single-player game wasn’t without its charms. The world of Aveum is undeniably beautiful, and the combat system, while flawed, manages to be entertaining and holds promise. Perhaps a follow-up installment could refine these elements and address the game’s shortcomings. | Read review |
| Merlin’in Kazanı | Samet Basri Taşlı | 70 / 100 | 08-22-2023 | Immortals of Aveum is a very entertaining FPS game that is overshadowed by high system requirements, design problems and bugs.

| New Game Network | Alex Varankou | 55 / 100 | 08-28-2023 | Immortals of Aveum may have an interesting premise, but with a dull story, repetitive gameplay, and poor technical performance, this full priced first person shooter lacks magic. | Read review |
| Niche Gamer | Jonathan White | 8 / 10 | 08-22-2023 | It isn’t the biggest or the best game I’ve played all year, but Immortals of Aveum has been one of the most fun experiences I’ve had. If I had any real complaints, it’s that the story continually urges the player forward without any assurance that you’ll have time to explore later. | Read review |
| NoobFeed | Azfar Rayan | 70 / 100 | 08-26-2023 | Immortals of Aveum caters to fans of first-person platformers and shooters. Those who have enjoyed Hogwarts Legacy, Atlas Fallen, Forspoken, or even Call or Duty may find the game likable, but it’s not for everyone. The challenges aren’t too difficult, while the game’s structure is too linear, from enemy encounters through main objectives to puzzles. It’s not a particularly remarkable game, and like most other things, Immortals of Aveum will soon be forgotten. If you’re considering picking it up, you should hold off until it goes on sale. | Read review |

| PC Gamer | Abbie Stone | 68 / 100 | 08-22-2023 | Immortals of Aveum tells a dull tale in an extremely irritating way, but at least has some fun, engaging shooting. I just wish it had a few ideas of its own. | Read review |
| PlayStation LifeStyle | Michael Leri | 9 / 10 | 08-22-2023 | Even with inconsistent visuals, Immortals of Aveum is an enrapturing experience. Its combat gives players a stunning amount of choices and emboldens them to become the ultimate murderous magnus. The narrative doesn’t give into the most bland fantasy clichés, either, and instead tells a well-constructed tale with flawed characters that are given the space to grow. It’s a magical first effort from Ascendant that has set the stage to grow into a spellbinding series. | Read review |
| PlayStation Universe | Garri Bagdasarov | 8 / 10 | 08-25-2023 | An original IP is always a good thing. An original IP that’s also fun to play is even better. Immortals of Aveum is a fun magic shooter that takes the great arcade shooting of DOOM and combines it with fun exploration and puzzle solving. Its great animations and voice work help move a slightly sluggish story forward as best it can. But none of these issues kept me from enjoying my time as an Immortal. | Read review |
| Polygon | Ian Walker | Not Recommended | 08-22-2023 | Immortals of Aveum should be applauded for trying something unique and exciting. It’s not every day that a studio attempts to aesthetically reinvent the first-person shooter genre with its debut game, and it’s clear the folks at Ascendant Studios tried their damndest to make the “Call of Duty but with magic” concept work. But for all its overwhelming visual splendor and adherence to modern conventions like skill trees and stat-boosting equipment, Immortals of Aveum is just as soulless as the military shooters from which it takes inspiration. It’s a paint-by-numbers buffet of contemporary tropes, and even when regarded against the full scope of creative and moral bankruptcy in the AAA space, it somehow still manages to fade into the scenery. | Read review |
| Press Start | James Mitchell | 9 / 10 | 08-22-2023 | Immortals of Aveum is a steadfast debut that will assuredly put its creators on the map. It combines strong combat mechanics with an engaging story set in an even more engrossing world to offer up a satisfying and complete experience. While the gear system and some console resolution issues might be off-putting for some, Immortals of Aveum is one of the most pleasant surprises in an already burgeoning year and a spellbinding adventure that’s well worth your time. | Read review |
| PSX Brasil | Marco Aurélio Couto | 80 / 100 | 08-22-2023 | Immortals of Aveum gets it right by bringing a new experience to the genre of first-person shooters. It has a fast combat, is full of good ideas and options. If your intention is to take control and destroy your enemies with powerful spells, I would say that Immortals of Aveum can guarantee good times. | Read review |
| Push Square | Stephen Tailby | 6 / 10 | 08-22-2023 | Immortals of Aveum presents us with an interesting new fantasy universe in which magic replaces bullets, but in practice it doesn’t quite hit the mark. Despite solid fundamental action, combat can quickly become difficult to read, devolving into a dizzying swirl of colourful effects. Solid presentation and performance lead to some visually arresting scenes, even if the story isn’t particularly memorable. It’s a good first effort from Ascendant Studios, and the potential is absolutely there, but there’s a feeling that the team bit off a little more than it could chew. | Read review |
| Rock, Paper, Shotgun | Alice Bell | Not Recommended | 08-22-2023 | Immortals Of Aveum lacks focus, and the magical shooting is more chaotic and less punchy than I’d like, but it hits fun often enough for me to respect the big fantasy swings it takes. | Read review |
| Shacknews | Ozzie Mejia | 7 / 10 | 08-21-2023 | As far as first tries go, there’s plenty to admire with Ascendant Studios’ debut effort. Immortals of Aveum offers something to build on, both in terms of its own lore and for this up-and-coming studio as a whole. | Read review |

| TechRaptor | Tyler Chancey | 7 / 10 | 08-22-2023 | Both ambitious and novel, Immortals of Aveum is a solid first-person action experience, hampered by several minor issues and a narrative that fails to emotionally connect. | Read review |

| The Games Machine | Daniele Cucchiarelli | 8.2 / 10 | 08-22-2023 | A fantasy FPS not the most original in storytelling and themes but still fun, moderately challenging and technically appreciable. The combat system based on the use of three different types of magic and a decent variety of customization make for a solid and well-balanced experience. | Read review |
| TheSixthAxis | Aran Suddi | 7 / 10 | 08-22-2023 | Immortals of Aveum is the epitome of a good game. The characters are well-acted and the world design is fantastic. The story though feels too safe and there’s no real wow moment. While the combat is fun too, you’ll have seen the majority of enemy types quite early on, and combat does become repetitive. | Read review |
| VG247 | Connor Makar | Not Recommended | 08-21-2023 | If you buy Immortals of Aveum, know that there is a good time here waiting for you. However, I deem it likely that it’ll be on sale rather soon. If you’re starving for some magic in your FPS pick it up, but even with some mystical flair and an admirable attempt at bringing mystic arts to a very gun-heavy genre, Immortals of Aveum ultimately fails to reach the heights of your Bulletstorms or Wolfenstiens. | Read review |
| VGC | Jordan Middler | 4 / 5 stars | 08-22-2023 | Immortals of Aveum delivers high-octane magical action and a world we’re fascinated by. While the narrative itself is predictable and the dialogue between characters can border on excruciating, the rock-solid gameplay is a magical foundation for EA to build on and develop into something special. | Read review |
| Video Chums | A.J. Maciejewski | 8 / 10 | 08-24-2023 | I enjoyed Immortals of Aveum a great deal thanks to its action-packed gameplay, rewarding character progression, and top-notch presentation. It’s fantastic to experience games that this much love went into and I look forward to a sequel. | Read review |
| VideoGamer | Alex Raisbeck | 6 / 10 | 08-23-2023 | Immortals of Aveum has the potential to be great, with its fun and varied combat, but is ultimately let down by a lackluster story, poor writing, unlikeable characters, and dull side content. The game frequently introduces interesting concepts, but repeatedly fails to capitalise on them, leaving behind an underwhelming mish-mash of underdeveloped mechanics and uninteresting story beats. | Read review |
| Wccftech | Nathan Birch | 6.5 / 10 | 08-22-2023 | Immortals of Aveum makes a solid early impression with engaging magic-infused FPS action and eye-catching Unreal Engine 5 visuals, but a predictable plot, irritating characters, and repetitive, by-the-books level design dims the game’s razzle-dazzle. Immortals of Aveum will be worth it for some shooter and fantasy fans, particularly at a discount, but don’t expect your memories of the game to live forever. | Read review |

| Worth Playing | Chris “Atom” DeAngelus | 7 / 10 | 08-21-2023 | Immortals of Aveum isn’t a terrible game, but it is an incredibly forgettable one. Everything it does feels like a paint-by-numbers scenario, and it doesn’t feel like it captures any sense of wonder. The annoying quipping dialogue drags you out of the world, and without that, you’re left with a solid, if entirely unexceptional, magic-themed FPS. There’s not much to recommend Immortals beyond giving you gun-themed magic instead of guns. I could see it perhaps finding an audience once its price point is lower, but most people will probably want to wait and see | Read review |
