![]() Not surprisingly considering the material which inspired the game, crime is rampant and the game often gets violent. This becomes especially crucial when you’re trying for specific achievements, and shoddy teamwork can mean that you’ll have to start over multiple times before you finally get it – and getting a medal means unlocking more modifications and weapons, so it’s rewarding on multiple levels. This is handled locally without a split screen, meaning that you’ll have to make sure to cooperate if you are to be effective. JYDGE can be played in single player mode, but it’s especially fun when played cooperatively with other players. Medals are tied to specific objectives, and stealthy requirements just aren’t quite compatible with a grenade launcher. Using the modification system extensively isn’t strictly needed to get through most scenarios, but you’ll want to become proficient with a multitude of combinations if you want to acquire all of the different medals the game has available. Not exactly subtle, but it does the job pretty well! ![]() These of course range from stealthy options that knock your adversaries out without too much noise, all the way to fiery explosions that can knock down entire walls. Your main weapon, appropriately called the Gavel, has a multitude of uses in both your primary and special firing modes. One neat little upgrade to use allows you to apply a kind of mind control to your enemies, which will see them join your side of the fight. Stealth modifications make sneaking around easier, but you can also make your character larger than life and engage in melee combat. Modification and augmentation are major parts of this game, and there’s an impressive range of possible options and even more in the way of possible combinations. Missions range from bank robberies to hostage situations to missions where stealth is your best answer – and you can equip and modify your JYDGE to get ready for each upcoming task. JYDGE is essentially a top-down shooter in which you play through (often short) scenarios as a jystice-dealing JYDGE (yes, that’s justice and judge – but 10tons is pretty liberal with their y usage this time around). We played the PS4 version, but the game can also be found on Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and PC. It's a trade-off that more than pays off in Judgment, as the whole is greater than the sum of its parts and creates some compelling memories once everything wraps up, but it does make for gameplay that can feel a little too simple when other things, like combat, are done with such detail.A mix between Judge Dredd, Blade Runner’s neon-infused environments and their own game Neon Chrome, developer 10tons has released their latest game, JYDGE. Any criticisms of Judgment on PS5 are the same people have had with the game's original release: detective modes that feel somewhat tacked-on, and a story that doesn't quite reach the heights that other, pure crime-thriller-type games might have scaled upwards to. While the graphical upgrades and load times do factor into a better experience with Judgment's detective modes, they remain fairly basic, and one of the more shallow aspects of an otherwise deep title. While it's expected given the strength of the PS5 SSD and other hardware features, it remains an impressive feature, and one that's appreciated in a game that regularly swaps between different cutscene angles, gameplay modes, and locations. Judgment on PS5 loads seamlessly between its cutscenes and environments, barely breaking the rhythm of a game that thrives on its pacing. The other major reason is one that's cited often in reviews of current-gen remasters and ports: load times.
