![]() And in theory, you could just bulldoze through all the in-game opponents in a matter of seconds, but for some unfathomable reason Creed: Rise to Glory features a stamina mechanic. And even on the higher difficulties, strategy and planning are still out the window, as what works on easy difficulty AI, works just as well on the champion difficulty opponents. ![]() But in truth, the easiest way to victory involves short, rapid jabs, and you taking a step back, whenever your opponent throws any punches at you. In addition, uppercuts rarely ever work as they supposed to, as they either end up becoming 45’ers to your opponent’s ribs, or are simply blocked, despite there being a foot-long gap between your opponent’s elbows.Īs you play through Creed: Rise to Glory, the title is constantly telling you how serious it is, and how blocking is a large part of combat. Even in an empty room, with all your peripherals perfectly calibrated, the title at hand still struggles with tracking, and often what should be a hook, results in a lethargic jab. And I’d like to say that the combat mechanics in Creed: Rise to Glory are superb, and simply second to none, but unfortunately that is not the case. Once you have allowed your VR headset to de-fog, and wiped the sweat off of your brow, you will be ready to take on your next opponent. As by the time you reach the end of the training montage, your lenses will be completely fogged up, your face will be covered in sweat, and unless you are an absolute specimen, you are more than likely going to be wheezing, because in order to reach the five star rating on each and every montage, you are going to have to put in some effort. As it is rather painful to play it for over 15 minutes at a time. But considering how active you have to be while playing it, it is more than likely to take you more than a week to complete. But considering that freeplay, is nothing more than bouts against story mode opponents, and that the online mode is completely dead, it is more than likely that you will be done with Creed: Rise to Glory, as soon as you hit the end credits.Ĭreed: Rise to Glory, might be an hour-long game. Sure, freeplay and the online component give the title some longevity. And I really want to put the emphasis on the term quick here, because Creed: Rise to Glory, can be easily completed in under an hour. And Creed: Rise to Glory, is exactly one of such games, because if not for the heat stroke inducing, lens steaming PSVR, it could be lots of fun.Ĭreed: Rise to Glory, is a quick and simple VR boxing experience, which allows you to live through the titular career of Adonis Johnson (Creed), compete in quick matches, as well as online versus bouts. ![]() And this ultimately takes a lot away from many VR games which could otherwise be seen as great, but feel like a painful punishment due to modern VR headsets being chunky, sweltering, pieces of plastic. But it is an unbearable like contraption inside of an apartment, with no air conditioning, in a middle of summer heatwave. It is a great and revolutionary piece of equipment, in a large, empty, well-ventilated room in the middle of winter. PSVR, or ant VR headset for that matter is a very situational peripheral.
