What critics said

Is Mistfall Hunter a revolutionary extraction game? Not really. Beneath its aggressive monetization and modest dark-fantasy twist lies yet another entry in an overcrowded genre—one that does little to capture or hold your attention.

Mistfall Hunter is a great game that's buried under some questionable design choices. In its best moments, its combat keeps you on the edge of your seat. In its worst moments, you'll constantly be wondering why the devs did things the way they did.

For solo or 1v1 PvP fans, Mistfall Hunter has some real limitations, but for like-minded groups, the game rises above its copycat patchwork.

After a successful first week, Mistfall Hunter gets a roadmap promising a much requested solo mode for one of its maps

Mistfall Hunter launched last week, and so far it seems to be doing quite well for itself! Apparently there's a million of you now running around its very Elden Ring looking lands and extraction fantasy lands (though these don't sound like one million sales, to be clear). With a healthy, if currently fairly critical, community under the game's belt, developer Bellring Games have shared a roadmap for its first and second season outlining what you can expect next.

Mistfall Hunter looks like legally distinct Elden Ring but with a faster paced, extraction spin

On its surface, aesthetically Mistfall Hunter certainly looks like a game where if you were doomscrolling and briefly saw a gif of it in action, you'd be forgiven for thinking it's from Elden Ring. The game certainly apes FromSoftware's dark fantasy, selectively colourful vibe, but it is offering up something different under the hood at least, as rather than your dime a dozen soulslike, it's opted for the slightly trendier extraction approach.

Mistfall Hunter's demo might finally convince me, a souls sicko, to give extraction games a proper go—even if it's more modern God of War than Nightreign
