In the expansion, players will guide Ash around as she explores the new islands, fight bad guys, venture in Vaults of Tartaros, solve puzzles and gather items, which are the same identical things Fenyx did in the main game, but the new perspective improves pacing a lot: combat feels a lot faster, puzzles are way more streamlined, although they are still powered by the same mechanics seen so far, and the content bloat seen in the main game is considerably reduced. With the new top-down view, Ubisoft Quebec has fully gone into The Legend of Zelda territory, making The Lost Gods feel and almost play like one of the classic entries in the series. This change is not just an aesthetic one, as it influences the experience in its entirety, helping it set itself apart from that of the main game and the two previous expansions. Don't expect anything deep or any surprising twist: the story goes exactly where you expect it to, and the gods' characterization doesn't really go beyond what has been established in the main game.Įven with familiar writing and story, Immortals Fenyx Rising - The Lost Gods does manage to feel somewhat fresh, thanks to the new top-down perspective. The humorous writing seen in the original has been toned down considerably in the expansion, but it's still there and it is decent enough. Enter Ash, a devoted mortal who eagerly accepts to help Fenyx bring the lost Gods back to Olympos.Īs it is a direct continuation of that featured in the main game, The Lost Gods' story is definitely enjoyable, and those who liked Fenyx's adventure on the Golden Isle will definitely like Ash's journey to the new islands where the lost gods have made their own realms. Unfortunately, he is stuck in Olympos and has no other choice than to name a Champion and let her do all the dirty work for him. Powerful gods like Hades, Poseidon, and Demeter have no intention of coming back to Olympos due to long-standing feuds with Zeus, and it is up to Fenyx to solve the situation and make the Pantheon whole again. Fenyx has finally taken his place among the gods in Olympos, but things are far from being perfect.


Immortals Fenyx Rising - The Lost Gods is set right after the end of the A New God expansion.
