Ranking EVERY PS5 Launch Game From Worst To Best

9. Godfall

There's something about Godfall that feels notably stale and off-putting.

It's likely down to every screenshot screaming "Corporate game design 101", to the point where you can practically see a team of executives green-lighting the combination of "Dark Souls gameplay" and "loot grind".

Thankfully what we've seen looks polished enough, but Godfall is struggling to stand out against a sea of titles that reward run-based gameplay, a melee focus and/or loot mechanics.

Not to mention, Gearbox's latest is going directly up against Demon's Souls on PS5, and it'd be something of a miracle for Godfall to beat a FromSoftware-designed action RPG when it comes to character builds, boss designs and level layouts.
