Romeo is a Dead Man reviewed by Will Borger on PS5, also available on Xbox Series X|S and PC.”I don’t know if Romeo is a Dead Man always works. I don’t love how repetitive its action can be, and the story is both endearingly bonkers and hard to follow. I wish there was more depth to its combat. I wish it explained how crucial things like Bastards were sooner. Like the Fractured Universe Romeo is in, it’s a whole lot of disparate parts that don’t always add up to a coherent whole. But I’ll be damned if I can’t stop thinking about it, and I respect how it tells its story through its gameplay. Is it good? I think so. Did I enjoy the act of playing it? Sometimes. Did it stick with me? Yeah. Yeah it did. Enough that I might go back to see if anything different happens in New Game Plus. And so we reach the end of the sphere, and start again.”
