Lost Soul Aside Review

Lost Soul Aside reviewed by Charlie Wacholz on PlayStation 5. Also available on PC.
Lost Soul Aside would’ve been a great character action game if it hadn’t gone out of its way to do anything outside of that. Cosplaying as a Final Fantasy game, its wheel-spinning story doesn’t go anywhere and an unmemorable cast of (often derivative) characters are played by actors who aren’t given much to work with. Boring level design is going through the motions at best and annoyingly unskippable at worst, and it’s loaded with painfully poor 3D platforming sequences and extremely basic puzzles. Next time it should really just stick to combat.
