Item Description

Barbarians are pouring through the gates, Rome is burning, and a battle-scarred centurion named Marius Titus sits down with Emperor Nero to tell him how it all came to this. That operatic framing sets the tone for Ryse: Son of Rome, Crytek's sword-and-sandals epic and one of the games chosen to launch the Xbox One in November 2013. Built on CryEngine, it was made to show what the new console could do, and every helmet crest, rain-slick shield and torchlit street looks like it was lifted from a film set.

The story follows Marius from the murder of his family through the ranks of the legion to the misty frontier of Britannia, where Boudica's warriors wait in the forests, and back again to Rome, where a revenge plot winds its way toward the imperial court and Nero's sons, Commodus and Basilius. It is pulpy, grim and grand in the best Hollywood tradition, with a cast that chews the scenery and battle sequences staged on an enormous scale.

Combat is built on sword and shield. You block, bash and strike until an enemy staggers, then trigger an execution, a brutal finishing sequence guided by color-coded cues, and choose whether it rewards you with health, focus, experience or extra damage. Larger set pieces put you in the shield wall, ordering your men into formation, locking shields against volleys of arrows and hurling pila at the enemy line, and the game was designed to take Kinect voice commands for calling in archer support. A separate gladiator mode, built around two-player online co-op, throws you into a Colosseum whose arena floor transforms into different battlefields mid-fight.

Critics were split at launch, praising the visuals and spectacle while finding the combat repetitive over a full campaign, and that is a fair read: Ryse is a short, cinematic blockbuster more than a deep brawler. Taken on those terms, it is a vivid time capsule of the Xbox One's first day, a showpiece that looked like nothing else in November 2013 and still makes a striking impression on the hardware it was built for.
