When the backdrop of your story is the entirety of Greek mythology, it's hard to stand out. With a tremendously voiced and hilarious cast of characters, scenic vistas, engaging exploration and mostly on-point gameplay, Immortals Fenyx Rising is as fun and weird as those gorgon-creating, swan-banging, wife-eating gods themselves. There aren’t many games where knowing the twelve labors of Herakles comes in handy, nor are there many where the narrators discuss nonbinary gods and make jokes about how centaurs are basically “sexy horse people.” Though the heart of Immortals Fenyx Rising is a straightforward and somewhat predictable hero story, its fantastically well researched deep dive into the Greek gods’ flawed characters and mythology makes the game fresh, funny, and unique. Fenyx’s mission is to reassemble the gods for a second crack at Typhon, a task that takes them across the monster and puzzle-laden landscape of the Golden Isle. ![]() In Immortals Fenyx Rising the player is Fenyx, a shield bearer and storyteller who washes up on a beach to find the rest of humanity has been turned to stone after the titan Typhon won an apocalyptic battle against the gods and heroes of legend. The Greek pantheon has been explored in video games before, most notably with the original God of War series, Assassin’s Creed Odyssey DLC, and Hades, but Immortals Fenyx Rising is the first to offer a fully open world immersed in the Kronos family bullshit from sky to seabed. They were petty, vindictive, horny, destructive, and all around trash fire deities whose myths are wildly entertaining to this day.
