PS4 "Gravity Rush: Remastered" review: conscientious remake of the controller function further demonstrated

After Tearaway: Unsealed was launched in China, the unique operation of the DS4 controller also left a deep impression on players. Of course, for Sony, a game cannot be regarded as a big gift given to players by China at the end of the year.

On December 10, "Gravity Rush: Remastered" became the first PS4 exclusive game with the Chinese and international versions released simultaneously, which gave domestic players a big surprise. For this game that has already won many honors on PSV, they also got this game as soon as possible. I wonder what heights it can reach on PS4.

The unique "Martian" language of Japanese comics

As Sony's first studio, SCE has a unique understanding of graphic style. Although most games nowadays focus on exquisite, delicate and even realistic graphic expression in order to highlight the strength of next-generation consoles, the Japanese comic style makes this game show a different charm.

Even in terms of narrative plot, SCE has made full use of Japanese comics, and the design of the dialog box also retains the style of traditional Japanese games. Of course, in Japan, where the animation field is well developed, the character depiction of this game also highlights cuteness and unrestrainedness. At the same time, the appearance of the beautiful girls also makes the whole game more popular among some "gentlemen".

The rich imagination and innovation are the outstanding parts of this game. The most amazing thing is that all the dialogue voices in the game are not from Earth at all. Although this is an adventure game in a strange world, I really have to kneel down to SCE for the way they created a language for a game. Of course, if there were no simplified Chinese letters, I would really have to listen to this "Martian" language until I finished the game.

Another game that squeezes the handle

After seeing the semi-sensory operation method of "Tearaway", I have a new understanding of the game. However, this "Gravity Rush" is not just a conquest of the fantasy world. "Gravity", as an important word throughout the game, also brings a new operation method to the handle.

In the game, players will learn the specific method of operating "gravity". Although the LED light is not used again, the gravity sensing mode will also make players suffer. Since gravity is often used to find or reach the target in the game, aiming becomes a key point to test players.

The handle will sense the player's actions. Even a slight tremor may cause the player to deviate from the course during flight. At the same time, due to the existence of the gravity energy bar, the player's control over movement will be increased, and if you are not careful, you may be smashed to pieces.

On the other hand, since this game belongs to the ACT category, battle scenes are also indispensable, which improves the player's operation of the handle buttons under gravity control. Although the whole game is not too difficult as a whole, it really takes a lot of effort to use the handle well.

Don't tell me, I feel dizzy.

The game is divided into 21 chapters, but each chapter is not too long. Most of the time is spent explaining the plot. SCE, which focuses on the plot, has also designed a good main line for this game: One day, the girl wakes up with amnesia. Driven by the power of the black cat that suddenly appears in front of her, the girl gains the mysterious ability to control gravity; then she fights a series of fierce battles with the gravity storm and the threatening forces that attack humans.

However, as an ACT game, there is not much direct fighting here. Many fighting methods are carried out through the control of gravity. Although the enemy is not scary, the way of breaking the core makes the game more difficult, especially when dealing with enemies in the sky. Sometimes, under the induction of the handle, it is possible to spin in the sky. Carefulness and patience are the key to passing the level.

As a major feature of Japanese games, collecting is essential. In addition to the collection achievements designed for players with severe obsessive-compulsive disorder in the trophy, crystals will also provide the heroine with skills and many ability bonuses. Of course, collecting crystals is also a grasp of gravity control.

In the first few chapters, the tutorial will make it easier for players to master the operation, but as the plot progresses, the difficulty will increase a lot. At the same time, the setting of challenges also improves the playability of this game. One of the points is that the setting that players can build their own rooms can also be said to be quite good.

As the plot and chapters deepen, the difficulty of the game will increase to a good level. Combined with the development of the plot, players can fully enjoy this strange world. At the same time, with the fighting methods brought by different BOSSes, this game can also fully allow players to experience the sense of freedom floating in the air.

As the first game released simultaneously with the international versions, although Gravity Rush: Remastered is not known for its exquisite graphics, its unique operation method and many elements unique to Japanese games allow this game to enter the ranks of 3A masterpieces. As a major gift for the Chinese version at the end of the year, it can indeed bring players a different experience after trying all the exquisite mini-games.

The first time that the Chinese version of the host is synchronized with the international version

In the face of the continuous emergence of international blockbusters, Chinese console games are still hovering among small games, and the desire to synchronize with the international version has always been the voice of domestic console players. The simultaneous release of "Gravity Rush: Remastered" this time has allowed many players to see Sony's sincerity, and at the same time has increased the confidence of many players in the complete synchronization between the international version and the Chinese version.

Faced with a strict review mechanism, Sony has sent in creative masterpieces from its first-party studio. Will there be exclusive masterpieces such as "Uncharted" and "Yakuza" or even strong IP games such as "Naruto: Ultimate Ninja Storm" launched in China in the future?

For the PS4, which has just been in the Chinese market for less than a year, everything Sony does for players is not just a gimmick. The progress of the PS4 in China is obvious to all. This time Sony's simultaneous release is enough to show Sony's emphasis on the Chinese market. In the face of the many expectations of players, I hope that international synchronization is not just a one-time thing for players.
