The Order: 1886 is out today, and it’s a marvel. It’s frankly incredible how good the game looks – but it has to be said that graphics alone don’t make a game. To coincide with its release, Ready at Dawn has released a brand-spanking new launch trailer to try and tell you what it’s all about.
Here’s what Chuck Lacson, the Product Marketing Manager at SCEA, who’s paid to say nice things about the company’s games has to say about The Order: 1886
The wait is nearly over! Soon, The Order: 1886 will finally launch around the world, officially adding a new cast of characters to the PlayStation family. Ready at Dawn not only has created a marvelous new world for us to play in, but a new breed of hero. The knights of The Order are extraordinary warriors, but it’s important to remember they are still human. They tire, they feel pain, but they still stand up and persevere.
We hope this trailer captures a little bit of that and sets the stage for your next amazing PlayStation adventure.
Reviewers have very much savaged the game, calling it both short and boring, which sounds like a pretty accurate descriptor of Darryn – and we still kinda like him, so maybe it’s not all bad. Remember, we’ve got a competition running to win the game, which you can have a look at by going here. Here’s that trailer, which may take up more of your time than the game itself.

A 10 hour SP game with no replay value. I’d play it because it looks & sounds cool, & I don’t replay much anyway. I wouldn’t buy it for R900 though.

Not going to splash R900 on a game with no replay and basically QTE, frack that. A pity, was hoping this was going to blow us away like a White House intern.

At least the visuals are impressive, and it is sort of a breath of fresh air (a short breath)

How many people actually bought that edition?
Blood Emperor Trevor
February 20, 2015 at 08:17
No idea, probably not that many. Evolve is only no.12 on Steam, and that edition is $100. It’s got a surprising amount of poor user reviews too :/

I’m really torn on this… I actually really wanna get it – sounds like an awesome storyline (and that’s a BIG consideration for me when it comes to gaming). And, as they all say, it looks stunning. But for that length… And even at the pre-order price of R749… I dunno… I’m quite torn at the moment.

The cruncher is that the gameplay is apparently boring. Wolfenstein didn’t run much longer than 10 hours but dammit it was Wolfenstein and it was good to shoot Nazis again.

And you could play it twice to see the other side of the story… Such an awesome game – I thoroughly loved it (and need to play it again!).
