Eurogamer's review welcomes Styx back with praise for a focused, well-executed outing that leans into its strengths rather than big-budget flash. The game is positioned as a compact, B-tier offering that delivers solid play and atmosphere despite modest production values.
- Returns to a murky dark-fantasy setting tied to the world of Of Orcs and Men, preserving the series' tone.
- Prioritises tight design and core mechanics over high-end visuals, making for a concentrated, satisfying experience.
- Shorter runtime and smaller scope are viewed as strengths—an efficient, replayable slice of entertainment.
- Seen as a strong example of a lower-budget title that does what it aims to do very well, standing out in its niche.
