What critics said

Eternal Games70

Celestial Return possesses one of the most interesting new worlds among modern narrative games, successfully blending cyberpunk with cosmic horror in an innovative way. However, the game seems closer to an excellent visual novel trying to present itself as an RPG, despite not reaching the point of being a true role-playing game. If the developers had succeeded in improving the dialogues, providing more creative outcomes for failure, and granting players greater freedom in shaping events, it would have transformed into one of the most prominent indie narrative games this year. Currently, it is a very good experience in terms of world and story, but it still stumbles due to some decisions that stand in the way of what it is trying to achieve.

DualShockers85

Celestial Return is a worthy successor for Disco Elysium, and it'll be of particular interest if you like Cyberpunk 2077 as well.

The Games Machine76

Celestial Return is a narrative gamble that blends investigation, cyberpunk, and cosmic horror in a decaying city where every choice matters.
