Redfall has been a complete disappointment for Xbox and Microsoft, with a major flop of a release. Despite being made by Arkane Studios (though, a different branch than the one we know and remember) and being published by Bethesda, Redfall has been very mediocre. And that’s an understatement at best. Redfall is also one of the worst rated games on Steam of all time.
Reviews have been scathing, to say the least, and ours should be coming out sometime today. User scores have also been very low, in fact, only 28% of Steam reviews rate Redfall as positive. That means that in terms of the worst rated Steam games ever, it’s #14 now.
The average score on Redfall is 2.83, which is obviously a huge blow. It’s not surprising though, as the game really wasn’t great at all. However, it looks like many are also fed up with the state of AAA gaming today, which we’ve covered in a DZSH Gaming video that you should check out below:
This is the list of the worst 15 rated games on Steam:
- War of the Three Kingdoms (1.44)
- Flatout 3: Chaos and Destruction (1.67)
- Identity (1.78)
- Uriel’s Chasm (1.79)
- Spacebase DF-9 (1.83)
- O2Jam Online (1.87)
- RollerCoaster Tycoon World (2.47)
- Godus (2.52)
- Kinetic Void (2.58)
- Mirror 2: Project X (2.58)
- Sacred 3 (2.64)
- Towns (2.65)
- GASP (2.72)
- Redfall (2.83)
- Umbrella Corps (2.96)
Let’s be fair, most of these games are quite unknown (no hate to their developers). RollerCoaster Tycoon World and Godus are relatively known, but for the most part, most gamers don’t know the titles on this list. That makes it even more insulting for Redfall to be on it at all.
Is it deserved or is it extreme? I’m not sure, but I think Redfall was definitely a major blow for the world of AAA gaming, with many YouTubers and reviewers talking about this situation. Especially since Redfall costs $70, it’s pretty ridiculous to think that this is the best they could do.
The scores on Steam may go up eventually, but let’s be fair, even some of the worst-rated games such as Godfall are at 63% positive reviews… 28% is REALLY bad. The fact that Redfall is one of the worst rated games on Steam really tells us something: Redfall has almost no redeeming qualities to it. People are basically unwilling to even give it a slight chance.
Not even Xbox Game Pass could save this one…
