The verdict
An atmospheric snowy-New-York looter shooter that holds up a decade later, best with friends. Skip it if you hate bullet-sponge enemies, repetitive missions or Ubisoft's launcher and server errors.
Great for
Co-op players wanting a moody open-world looter shooter, picked up cheaply on sale
Main risk
Ubisoft Connect/server errors, spongy enemies and repetitive grind, especially solo
