The approach to the gameplay follows, or rather tries to follow in some ways that of Dishonored, with maps of varying sizes, and explorable with multiple approaches chosen by the player. There are also quite elementary management and crafting components. For those who have never heard of Weird West before this piece, let’s talk about a hybrid between twins stick shooteran RPG and a stealth game, all with isometric view from above. However, we are not exactly of the same opinion for the gameplay, but let’s start from the beginning.

Weird West in this review it has therefore revealed itself as a title with great potential in terms of setting and narration. A world that we will be free to cross far and wide and that, with some limitations, we will be able to shape as we please … even with lead and blood-stained conscience, and heavy as a boulder. A land where witches they sing around a fire, and where werewolves and possessed beasts revel over the carcasses of village families. The result obtained is that of a choral adventure fairly branched out with 5 characters of which we will take control and which will allow us to see through their eyes one noisy version of the Far West, violent and cruel, sometimes unjust and mean, ready to take it out on the weakest and most defenseless, and where the magic and esotericism they are a dominant part of the local culture. The story of the new game of the fathers of Arkane Studios takes up this imagery, and is therefore imbued with a disruptive mix of mysticism and violence, of the kind that fans of Dishonored they have come to know and appreciate well, made up of unspeakable monstrosities, mysterious entities, and profane rituals. We cannot fail to mention titles such as Hunt Showdownfrom which it appears that Weird West may have also found inspiration for some of its monstrosities, or still West of Dead (here our review) with decidedly dark tones. Weird West it is not in fact the first title that follows a decidedly more vision dark and delightfully “Diverted” of the Far West that most know.

Today though the trend has progressively changed and, even in video games, the era that has always represented for many an ideal context for stories of adventure and travel into the unknown, has turned into one of the best ways to create horror stories. When we talk about the Old West it is easy to imagine the cinematic context that the famous films of Sergio Leone and of Clint Eastwood they gave us in the past, with outlaws, sheriffs, train robberies and shootings with the natives of the place.
