![]() ![]() Fortunately, I don’t have to wait long to find out because Endling: Extinction is Forever hits PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Switch, and PC on July 19.Endling Extinction is Forever is an indie survival adventure game developed by Herobeat Studios, experience a world ravaged by mankind through the eyes of the last mother fox on earth. I hope the full game has more locations to explore, though, because, after two hours, I was ready for something new. Still, I enjoyed how each night of exploration ended with a better understanding of my surroundings and revealed more of the map. ![]() It also opened previously-locked routes.Įndling’s not quite a Metroid-like experience, and it’s not necessarily going for that. This led to finding new objects to smell, which gave me clues to my missing cub’s whereabouts. Each night, I was able to explore more parts of the world, spurred by my discoveries. My cubs learned new skills as I played through the opening hours, and I hope the abilities I hadn’t unlocked yet shake up the gameplay to be more than “here’s a new way to find food.” Plus, despite gameplay shortfalls, I’m intrigued by Endling’s exploration. Still, I get the sense that my current problems with Endling’s gameplay result from me only having access to its opening hours. This quickly became uninteresting, but unfortunately, it was necessary to continue my exploration of the area. After discovering the trapper, they remained in the same spot for days, meaning every night I went out to hunt, I would have to go through the same stealth section that played out in the same way every time. But these encounters amount to waiting until they’re no longer pointing their flashlight in your direction before moving on. ![]() There are more stealth-oriented sections, like when you come upon the trapper who's cub-napped one of your young. Sure, new cub skills like jumping, climbing, and squeezing through small gaps change things, but ultimately, they lead to new food sources. You can use the fox’s snout to track scents, which usually lead to food for your cubs, and you can pounce on unsuspecting prey by sneaking up on creatures like rats and rabbits, but that’s about it (or at least, that’s all I’ve really done in this preview session). There’s just not much to do in the immediate moments. ![]()
