After Wave: Downfall doesn’t do anything to stand out as a shoot ‘em up but it can still provide some fun, frantic action for fans. I would wait for a sale personally as I think that for a bit of a lower price you’ll be getting a pretty decent game here with some fun modes that you can play alone or with a friend. *After Wave: Downfall is available now on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch.

After Wave: Downfall is an arcade-style game that lacks refinement yet it's still undeniably compelling thanks to its frantic gameplay and enjoyable co-op implementation. Plus, the fact that you can unlock all sorts of upgrades and extra content is a nice bonus.

An interesting take on a shooter, but some wonkiness makes it hard to reach its level of ambition Always happy to give credit when it is due, there’s no doubt that After Wave: Downfall simply has its own visual and then play style, moving away from the classic pixel-based graphics and tackling the shmup genre with more of a low-ish poly look.

After Wave: Downfall isn’t a game we can recommend. There are plenty of other vertical scrolling shooters out there, and many of them are more worthy of your time and money. Still, if you do happen to pick it up you might have some fun with it, and it’s at least got an original premise at least. But with its various issues, it feels very much like a missed opportunity.
