Everyone has a fighting chance
When games launch with issues, oftentimes fans dismiss the developer’s efforts as lazy, half-assed or a cash grab. But development is so much more complex than it seems on the surface. We spoke to Godfall’s Game Director, Daniel Nordlander, about these challenges, as well as what’s coming for Counterplay’s title.
With each update, Counterplay Games has made improvements to its melee action RPG Godfall to address the feedback, both positive and negative, of the fans and naysayers since its release. We took a look at the Ultimate Edition and the changes brought to the game since launch.
Godfall released last year on PlayStation 5 and PC, bringing a technical showcase to the new console, as well as the concept of a "looter slasher" from Counterplay Games. Now, with the Lightbringer update and the first expansion, Fire & Darkness, Mitch descends into the Fire Realm to put the new content through its paces.
The upcoming expansion of Godfall, a new soundtrack to help tell the story Counterplay Games is trying to convey was needed. Enter Ben MacDougall, who put together the soundscape of Godfall. We had the chance to ask Ben a few questions about Fire & Darkness, as well as preview an upcoming track from the soundtrack.

Godfall is coming to last-generation PlayStation consoles after initially only releasing on the current-gen PlayStation 5 as well as PC. Normally games are being ported upwards, but this is one of the few instances this gen where we see a game being ported to less powerful hardware. Naturally that leads to the question of how the experience holds up? Well, here’s your first look at Godfall running on PlayStation 4.
Last week Mitch gave an overview of Godfall and his thoughts thus far. Now he’s ready to pass his final verdict of the PS5/EGS title that ushers in next-gen.
Godfall hits both PC and PS5 this week, and Mitch has been keeping his eye on the action RPG ever since it was debuted about a year ago. But how does the looter RPG stack up thus far? Here are his initial thoughts on Godfall.

Despite being disappointed over and over, even as recently as Marvel’s Avengers, I’m still curious to see if the next one will succeed where others have failed. And that’s where Godfall comes in.
