The verdict
A stealth-focused immersive sim with excellent level design and freedom, but the story ends on a cliffhanger and PC stability is shaky. Skip it if you need a complete story.
Great for
Immersive sim fans who love sneaking through vents, hacking and exploring dense hub levels, ideally on sale
Main risk
Story cuts off at a cliffhanger with no sequel, and crashes or loading hangs on PC
What players love
Freedom to play stealth, combat or pacifist
