Improvements coming to PS4 and Xbox One alongside the Nintendo Switch is positive news considering Firewatch’s inconsistent performance at launch.
Earning 8/10 in our review, we praised Firewatch for its poignant atmosphere and gripping story:
“As a piece of interactive fiction, though, it’s rich, gripping, beautiful and haunting. A powerful slow burner, smouldering beneath the surface, it establishes Campo Santo as a studio to watch.”
