Chasm: The Rift on consoles is a good port of an average game

If you’re one of the long-time fans of the original, and you’ve been looking to play this on the couch or on the go with a Switch, this console release of Chasm: The Rift is easy to recommend. It’s feature-complete; looks, sounds, and runs about as good as it could without a complete overhaul of the engines or assets; and the gamepad support is solid right out of the gate. If, on the other hand, you’re simply curious about a classic FPS from a fledgling Eastern European developer before the region became the powerhouse they are today, Chasm: The Rift has some neat ideas but it doesn’t come together as well as it should, and it can’t stand toe-to-toe with early 3D juggernauts like Quake or Unreal.

0:00 - Intro
0:59 - Dismembering your through time
3:19 - Too many ambushes and defensive gunplay
4:57 - Great ideas, inconsistent execution
