Great Graphics and storyline, only thing that I didn't like was the not so live multiplayer.

When news of a Mirror's Edge sequel first broke, we were filled with both hope and fear. Kind of like how we might feel if it was announced that J.J.Abrams was coming back for the next Star Wars movie, but Michael Bay was doing catering and could therefore theoretically become involved with the...

Great game with some cool action and story with some nice graphics

When the first Mirror's Edge released in 2008, wasn't what we'd call " Ground-Breaking ", but the acclaim it garnered and the innovations it brought to the table was anything but.

Detailed Character Models; Innovative Combat System; Fluid Gameplay; Solar Fields Excellent Soundtrack

Underdeveloped Stories; Lifeless City; Boring Characters

There are moments when all of Mirror's Edge Catalyst's components fall into place, moments when intricate level design allows the fluid freerunning to shine, the mission at hand delivers a memorable set piece, or the open world surprises with a cleverly hidden area.

Satisfying; nuanced movement mechanics; Rewarding open-world exploration; Huge mix of worthwhile side content

Clunky though largely avoidable combat; Mediocre storytelling

Faith is very young here, just being released from a juvenile detention facility after being caught on a run. She is a professional courier delivering messages from rooftop to rooftop in the futuristic city of Glass, where the government has complete control over electronic information.

The first-person perspective has a great deal of potential for truly immersing the player in an experience. Many games use this advantage for greater impact with horrific imagery, more excitement in set pieces, and a sense of involvement in puzzles.

EA and DICE have finally launched a follow-up to cult classic Mirror's Edge; join Ben as he dusts off Faith's old red running shoes.

Fantastic art and level design makes Glass a pleasure to run around; Highly polished parkour system; Combat works well in hit-and-run encounters; Plenty for explorers and competitive gamers; Puzzle-platform rooms are neat

Character progression system is pointless; Story predictable and humourless; Combat doesn't work in stand-and-fight situations, which are too common; Side missions and activities are awfully samey

Overall, the things that make Mirror's Edge Catalyst a bigger experience makes it a bit lackluster. The fighting, while better, is still bland and repetitive. Exploring the world can bring the fast moving gameplay down to a crawl as you try and find new areas.

Mirror's Edge's return shines in some regards, but is ultimately a disappointment.
