Phantom Fury is a delightfully old-school FPS with a modern edge. This challenging title will test your resolve and your puzzle-solving abilities. Moreover, it demands that you explore every nook and cranny. If you want a retro game that will test your skills, then this one must be played.
Phantom Fury is a classic FPS that manages to engage and entertain. It is a simple but well-finished evolution of its predecessor, to whom it owes a lot and which can still be an excellent yardstick in the panorama of boomer shooters. The new production, while not shining for originality, knows how to be a remarkable follow-up.

Phantom Fury is an excellent tribute to all the environnemental story telling FPS we had in the 2000s. A good reminder of Half-Life, Sin, Soldier of Fortune, Blood 2, Halo or what DNF 2001 would have been...Graphics are superb, gameplay is fast and responsive (nothing to do with the bad demo we had last september), enemies are fast and keep the pressure on, weapons are very good.I don't understand the bad buzz of some youtubers around this game. For 22.5€ I had a lot of fun ! There is a few bugs yes, but nothing game breaking from my experience, and I bought it on day ****'s exactly the kind of retro FPS that I enjoy and it is made with much love for this genre ! Hopefully it will sell well and more games like this will follow!

How? How could you do something as dull, boring and clunky like this? I mean you had everything to make this great, and this is what we get? A nerf guns, explosions that looks and sounds like firecrackers and this bland and unforgattable levels? Aren't you ashamed guys? This might be the biggest dissapointment of this year. A second one by lobs from 3D Realms and Slipgate. Way to go guys, Way to go!

Shelly "Bombshell" Harrison is back again to show the charm of retro action that continues to the present day. Dynamic FPS will not be lost among current competitors in the genre.
If you like to march through corridors, blow through your enemies, and maybe get a few one-liners in along the way? Phantom Fury is going to be a good time. It’s a legacy throwback that has done its homework, and while it didn’t delight me it also never made me want to throw the dang thing in the garbage. It’s some good lightweight fun. Let’s just hope that this time around the title avoids becoming the main character of controversy, hmm?
Quotation forthcoming.
Phantom Fury is an unapologetic boomer-shooter that can definitely talk the talk, but fails to walk the same walk that its inspirations did some 25 years ago. Countless technical problems, obscure level design, and a sad excuse for a story unfortunately make what could have been a good game a middling one.
I´ve been waiting for 3 years for this had a lot of expectations i admit. But the demo that came out a few months ago really lowered my expectations, it was a disaster. unbeliebably so, the game ended up dissapointing me a lot even after lowering my expectations. i could only play so much before succumbing to boredom and the huge amount of bugs this game has.
its not really about bugs only, it has a massive design, pacing and unfun problem. you can´t fix this with a patch, only by delisting the game and redoing it from scratch.
my advice? get ion fury instead and its dlc aftershock,

It has so many design problems, it feels unfinished too, it has a lot of issues with being unpolished... but above all else, it feels souless, like the type of game people who were passionate start working on it for a while and then afterwards, for one reason or another, forgot to finish the freaking thing.
It's so by the numbers, so freaking dull.
