Screen RantRyan KeenumJan 20223/5 starsTo say that The Anacrusis is better with friends is an incredible understatement, as it’s less like a different experience and more like a completely different game. Everything just feels more cohesive with co-op. Teamwork and communication make objectives and combat more exciting, while death feels less like a chore. This is the type of game that is meant to be played one way and one way only, but when it’s that much better, there’s nothing really wrong with that, and The Anacrusis is well worth anyone's time if they can put together their own team to tackle it with.

IGNLuke WinkieJan 20225/10In early access, The Anacrusis fails to match its distinctive and colorful setting with compelling co-op shooting gameplay. For a game that looks this cool, it gets boring quickly.

The LoadoutJoe ApseyJan 20225/10The Anacrusis’ Game Preview launch is plagued with performance issues. In its current form, it also lacks any kind of identity, punch, or vigour. It is one of the most lacklustre games of its genre right now and Stray Bombay has a lot to do to make this the refreshing co-op experience many expected it to be.
