With that in mind, I’m glad running out of health results in a quick respawn because even those very experienced with platformers are going to die a lot in Ori and the Will of the Wisps. So while Ori does indeed progressively become more capable thanks to new abilities being unlocked, a common theme in exploration-focused platformers, the game still finds ways to remain challenging. This constant feeling of dread is aided by truly challenging enemies - I hate those mosquito creatures and how they dive at you - and the new screen-filling boss battles. This is even after you start to unlock Ori’s several interesting powers, and the character becomes far more capable than it is at the beginning of the game. What’s most impressive about Will of the Wisps is that throughout my time with the title , Ori still feels like a small being tasked with what feels like an insurmountable goal. The game’s unique design truly pops from the display in a way I haven’t experienced before with a video game.

Of course, how great the game looks was helped by the fact I’m playing it on an Xbox One X and with a PC monitor that supports both 4K and HDR10, which surprisingly added significantly to the already impressive visuals. Everything from the game’s vibrant, yet dark and detailed environment, to its stellar animation amount to one of the most visually compelling games I’ve encountered in some time. In short, Ori and the Will of the Wisps is absolutely stunning - if you thought Ori and the Blind Forest looked great, its sequel is on an entirely different level.

They’re exploration-focused, two-dimensional video games, that share striking similarities to the two series that birthed this type of game: Metroid and Castlevania. While ‘Metroidvania’ is the perfect example of video game lingo I hate because the word doesn’t mean anything to someone who isn’t immersed in the world of gaming, it really does describe titles that fall into this sub-genre very well. Instead, the player is thrown into what feels like a massive, two-dimensional world and is tasked with uncovering its mysteries and accomplishing specific goals. Games like Guacamelee and Ori are entirely free from the confines of level-based progression.
