Temtem, however, has no such restrictions. As a Nintendo franchise, Pokémon has always been bound by the generally weaker Nintendo hardware. In its current state, Temtem is certainly a visual treat on PS5 and PC.
#TEMTEM REVIEW PC#
At the time of writing, Temtem is out on PS5 and PC but I can’t see any reason why it wouldn’t make its way to other platforms in the future.
For now, it’s in a solid state for what it is and the PS5 version even has cross-play with PC, which is welcome. It’s pretty standard right now in early access but there’s potential to see this expanded upon down the line. That being said, it’s by no means revolutionary. The online experience in Temtem is simply a joy. This breathes a whole new life into the world that Pokémon has simply not been able to emulate up to this point. The character customization system is fairly basic, but it’s complex enough that most Tamers look pretty different when running around with their Temtem behind them. The persistent world means there are always other Tamers around you, allowing you to interact with them to buddy up, do battle, or trade. The MMO element is what really separates Temtem from Pokémon and other creature catching games. The best part is the co-op support which allows Tamers to join forces with a friend at any time and work together to catch a new Temtem, complete a route, or face off against a Temtem Leader.
Tamers from around the world can join and you will be able to see them around you. Well, friendly until you’re locked in a battle with other players. Its similarities are undeniable, and Temtem perhaps owes its existence to Pokémon, but it improves upon the Pokémon games in some significant ways.įirst of all, Temtem is truly online and multiplayer-friendly. Temtem succeeds where the latest Pokémon games failed: it’s large in scope and substance. The latest games I played, Pokémon Sword and Shield, were bigger in scope than previous titles, but ultimately felt shallow.
#TEMTEM REVIEW SERIES#
In that respect, I feel qualified enough to write that I think the series has become.lazy. Now, I’m by no means a serious Pokémon gamer, but I do play the majority of the series’ instalments. It’s currently in Early Access, but even in its current state, Tentem is shaping up to be a worthy contender to rival the long-running Pokémon video game series. That being said, Pokémon and Game Freak should be keeping a close eye on Temtem. But a little competition never hurt anyone… Well, that’s how the saying goes at least. Okay, let’s address the Phanpy in the room before proceeding.Yes, Temtem is pretty much a Pokémon clone.
