On January 29, 2026, The Game Bakers (Furi, Haven) released its latest production, Cairn. Although press reviews just came out at the last minute, the French studio’s title is nonetheless a success.
On Metacritic, Cairn scored an average of 82% on PS5 (19 reviews) and 85% on PC (16 reviews). On OpenCritic, the score is currently 87% with 40 different reviews. As always, the scores are subject to change.
Among its qualities, Cairn benefits from successful gameplay with a real sense of challenge. The storytelling is touching, the art direction superb, and the survival aspect extremely gripping. All this without forgetting the many secrets to discover and a fairly original overall formula.
On the downside, the physics can be a bit clunky at times, falls can be frustrating, and the frame rate isn’t always stable.
