Is Abandoned Archive worth it in 2026?

Verdict
Abandoned Archive offre une expérience de combat de boss addictive, soutenue par un audio impeccable et un rapport qualité/prix solide. Cependant, l’UI désastreuse et le contenu limité peuvent détourner les joueurs à la recherche d’une immersion plus fluide. En définitive, c’est un jeu à recommander aux amateurs de défis intenses, mais avec l’avertissement qu’il faut être indulgent envers ses défauts techniques.
