Solid adventure set in a post-apocalyptic Oregon. The story keeps you engaged throughout, and the gameplay offers a good mix of action and exploration. Side missions are enjoyable and offer useful rewards, while the minimap and direction guides make navigation a breeze. The HUD is also spot on, and holding L1 makes it so easy to select what item (among so many!) you'd like to use. Riding your bike around the open world is a highlight, especially with the fitting music.

Upgrading your skills, guns, and bike adds depth to the experience, and the graphics are impressive for a PS4 game. However, the loading times can be a bit of a drag, especially for those used to the faster loading of the PS5. Additionally, the main story feels a tad too long. Despite these drawbacks, the game rarely feels boring thanks to frequent auto-saves and well-written dialogues.

One of the best games I've ever played!
