After losing the rights to Duke Nukem, 3D Realms introduced a new protagonist - Shelly Harrison, in their latest game, Phantom Fury. While Ion Fury paid tribute to 90s shooters, this installment brings back memories of the early 2000s.
Set years after Ion Fury, Shelly Harrison awakens in a strange new world with a bionic hand. She embarks on a cross-country journey in search of the Demonic Core, a powerful artifact that poses a threat to humanity.
Key features of Phantom Fury include:
- Over 20 unique weapons, such as the Lover Boy revolver from Ion Fury and the Motherflakker shotgun.
- Fast-paced action-packed gameplay.
- Diverse enemies like demonic cyborgs, mutants, and super soldiers.
- Customization options and upgrades, like the bionic hand’s ability to create shields or immobilize foes.
- Exciting locations and scenarios – from Albuquerque hotels to Chicago streets, helicopter rides, and more.
- Enhanced world interactivity with playable arcade machines and computer terminals.
Initial reviews of Phantom Fury are moderately positive, with a score of 69 out of 100 based on nine reviews. Critics appreciate the intense battles and nostalgic feel, drawing comparisons to Half-Life in terms of presentation and level design. However, some criticize the rushed release, citing numerous bugs, gameplay inconsistencies, and an unfinished third act.
Phantom Fury is now available on Steam for 1249 rubles, with Russian text translation included.
