Prodeus might have the best FPS campaign since Doom Eternal. The Eurogamer review

Out now for PC, PS4, PS5 and Xbox Series S/X, coming 7th October to Nintendo Switch. Available on Game Pass

Glisten is the optimal word for describing Prodeus' gibbage - the violence here is striking, and stylishly over-the-top. Fire your shotgun into the chest of a zombie grunt and their torso will disintegrate like service station toilet paper, splattering surrounding terrain in near-comical amounts of blood. In more crowded scenes Prodeus turns into an X-Rated version of Splatoon, with your weapons coating entire rooms in internal fluids of various colours.

Although well designed, there's nothing especially radical within Prodeus' weaponry. Its weirdest weapon is a late-game twist on Unreal Tournament's Biorifle that isn't much fun to wield, and there's some of that same conservatism in much of its enemy roster. Most of the foes you face are thinly disguised variants of Doom's demonic adversaries, with legally distinct versions of imps, pinkies and cacodemons referencing Prodeus lineage.

This two-part level is the point at which Prodeus reveals its hand, with subsequent maps all revolving around a particular concept or mechanic. One highlight is 'Hazard', which takes place in a yawning canyon containing a lake of toxic sludge. As you hop between ad-hoc islands and miniature bases around the lake, you'll throw switches that raise the level, letting you climb higher up the canyon.
