It’s got some brilliant dialogue, plenty of gut-wrenching decisions to make, combat that never becomes a chore, and a character development system that you’ll obsess over. Even if you’ve never dipped your toes into the series before, you should give Wasteland 3 a try.

This evolution of Wasteland comes with plenty to do for all levels of players. Veteran players will notice continued themes while the title still remains accessible to newer players. Updated gameplay, visuals and character statistics create a new experience like never before. Combat has been overhauled from previous installments to be smoother than before while adding new elements, like Precision Strikes. The title's commitment to player choice means that Wasteland 3 is a cornucopia of replayabilitiy while providing new content to explore. Gorgeous visuals and art design beg players to sink some time into the Colorado wastes without thinking too much about it. Wasteland 3 is even more approachable in a way that Wasteland 2 may not have been for its time. It's a great title for sure, but could benefit from some editing that could streamline the game a little more without making the player feel like an errand boy. One thing is certain, it does continue to carry the franchise's mantle in a completely new and refreshing way. It feels that inXile have hit their stride with this latest installment and have continued to flesh out the Wasteland world that is committed to individuality. Wasteland 3 is a world of open adventure, thrills and a deluge of blood. So what are you waiting for, Ranger? Get out there.","2025-01-15T05:40:38.685712-05:00",{"id":284,"logo":296,"name":297,"slug":298,"tags":299,"bluesky":26,"twitter":300,"youtube":301,"facebook":302,"mastodon":26,"muckrack":26,"claimed_at":26,"description":303,"website_url":304,"score_format":103,"average_score":77,"default_timezone":50,"last_review_date":305,"stats_updated_at":306,"headquarters_city":26,"news_editor_email":26,"platforms_covered":26,"claimed_by_user_id":26,"reviews_this_month":17,"active_authors_count":307,"headquarters_country":26,"reviews_editor_email":26,"editor_in_chief_email":26,"published_authors_count":308,"published_reviews_count":309},"https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.criticdb.com\u002Fstorage\u002Fv1\u002Fobject\u002Fpublic\u002Favatars\u002FOutlets\u002FHardcore-Gamer-Logo.jpg","Hardcore Gamer ","hardcore-gamer","[  \n  'corporate_owned',\n  'online_media'\n  ]","HardcoreGamer","HardcoreGamerVideo","Hardcore-Gamer","Follow us for the latest and greatest in video game news, previews, reviews and more.

It was more a modern retread of the original Wasteland than a proper sequel.","2025-03-25T16:58:27.168427-04:00",{"id":61,"logo":499,"name":500,"slug":501,"tags":26,"bluesky":26,"twitter":500,"youtube":502,"facebook":503,"mastodon":26,"muckrack":26,"claimed_at":26,"description":504,"website_url":505,"score_format":48,"average_score":63,"default_timezone":50,"last_review_date":26,"stats_updated_at":51,"headquarters_city":26,"news_editor_email":26,"platforms_covered":26,"claimed_by_user_id":26,"reviews_this_month":17,"active_authors_count":17,"headquarters_country":26,"reviews_editor_email":26,"editor_in_chief_email":26,"published_authors_count":17,"published_reviews_count":17},"https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.criticdb.com\u002Fstorage\u002Fv1\u002Fobject\u002Fpublic\u002Favatars\u002FOutlets\u002FWayTooManyGames.png","WayTooManyGames","way-too-many-games","@WayTooManyGames","waytoomanygames","We play the good, the bad, and the so bad it's good.

And all of this is without touching on the co-op mode that I didn't have the chance to tinker with. Colorado is a brutal and unrelenting place to explore, yet I loved doing so.

Wasteland 3 cements inXile as one of the best in the business in the RPG genre and affirms that Xbox has something truly special on their hands.","2025-02-26T20:13:09.503598-05:00",{"id":346,"logo":706,"name":707,"slug":708,"tags":42,"bluesky":709,"twitter":708,"youtube":708,"facebook":708,"mastodon":26,"muckrack":26,"claimed_at":26,"description":710,"website_url":711,"score_format":48,"average_score":104,"default_timezone":50,"last_review_date":26,"stats_updated_at":51,"headquarters_city":26,"news_editor_email":712,"platforms_covered":713,"claimed_by_user_id":26,"reviews_this_month":17,"active_authors_count":17,"headquarters_country":281,"reviews_editor_email":716,"editor_in_chief_email":717,"published_authors_count":17,"published_reviews_count":17},"https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.criticdb.com\u002Fstorage\u002Fv1\u002Fobject\u002Fpublic\u002Favatars\u002FOutlets\u002FXbox%20Era%20Logo.jpg","XboxEra","xboxera","xboxera.com","Your destination for Xbox news, previews, reviews and community fun!","https:\u002F\u002Fxboxera.com\u002F","jon.clarke@xboxera.com",[714,715],"Xbox One","Xbox Series X|S","jesse.norris@xboxera.com","pieter.jasper@xboxera.com",{"id":719,"game_id":5,"outlet_id":720,"author":721,"original_score":728,"normalized_score":33,"review_url":729,"review_date":393,"summary":730,"created_at":731,"updated_at":731,"author_id":722,"last_edited_at":731,"outlet":732},85622,82,{"id":722,"bio":26,"name":723,"avg_score":724,"outlet_id":26,"created_at":725,"profile_id":26,"updated_at":726,"claim_token":26,"article_count":727,"claimed_by_user_id":26},4005,"Jason Faulkner",79.39655172413794,"2025-01-18T12:10:33.122454-05:00","2025-07-08T15:30:25.304328-04:00",117,"8\u002F10","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.gamerevolution.com\u002Freview\u002F657188-wasteland-3-review-ps4-pc-xbox-one","Video game developers love a post-apocalyptic setting. Hundreds of titles are set in the aftermath of civilizations collapse in the face of nuclear war, zombies, civil unrest, environmental upheaval, or vague McGuffins. A post-apocalyptic series that rose above the rest was Fallout, which mixed catastrophe and desperation with humor to great effect. However, Fallout almost didn’t exist. Instead, it was meant to be a sequel to 1988’s Wasteland, but when Interplay couldn’t obtain the OP, a new series was born. After a long hiatus for the franchise, Wasteland 2 was released in 2014, and now a sequel, Wasteland 3 is coming out.","2025-02-27T18:53:32.458672-05:00",{"id":720,"logo":733,"name":734,"slug":735,"tags":127,"bluesky":26,"twitter":736,"youtube":737,"facebook":738,"mastodon":26,"muckrack":26,"claimed_at":26,"description":739,"website_url":740,"score_format":48,"average_score":77,"default_timezone":50,"last_review_date":26,"stats_updated_at":51,"headquarters_city":26,"news_editor_email":741,"platforms_covered":26,"claimed_by_user_id":26,"reviews_this_month":17,"active_authors_count":17,"headquarters_country":26,"reviews_editor_email":741,"editor_in_chief_email":742,"published_authors_count":17,"published_reviews_count":17},"https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.criticdb.com\u002Fstorage\u002Fv1\u002Fobject\u002Fpublic\u002Favatars\u002FOutlets\u002FGame-Revolution-Logo.jpg","Game Revolution","game-revolution","Game_Revolution","GameRevolutionGR","GameRev","Gaming, entertainment, and tech coverage where the reader comes first","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.gamerevolution.com\u002F","jason.faulkner@gamerevolution.com","paul.tamburro@gamerevolution.com",{"id":744,"game_id":5,"outlet_id":745,"author":746,"original_score":32,"normalized_score":33,"review_url":753,"review_date":754,"summary":755,"created_at":756,"updated_at":756,"author_id":747,"last_edited_at":757,"outlet":758},73715,69,{"id":747,"bio":26,"name":748,"avg_score":749,"outlet_id":745,"created_at":750,"profile_id":26,"updated_at":751,"claim_token":26,"article_count":752,"claimed_by_user_id":26},4920,"Leif Johnson",73.34328358208955,"2025-01-26T13:25:07.102915-05:00","2025-07-08T17:24:14.793571-04:00",134,"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.ign.com\u002Farticles\u002Fwasteland-3-review","2000-01-01","Wasteland 3 doesn't add much to the tactical RPG formula, but its impressive freedom of choice, its dark and rough humor, and its satisfying combat make it one of the more memorable entries in the genre to date. Its large world is packed with upwards of 60 hours of content for a single playthrough, too, so there’s a lot to chew on here. It's a pity Wasteland 3 didn't launch in winter, as I can think of few companions I'd rather be snowed in with.","2025-02-06T17:56:54.862212-05:00","2025-02-07T09:19:39.049734-05:00",{"id":745,"logo":759,"name":760,"slug":761,"tags":299,"bluesky":762,"twitter":760,"youtube":763,"facebook":760,"mastodon":26,"muckrack":26,"claimed_at":26,"description":764,"website_url":765,"score_format":48,"average_score":49,"default_timezone":50,"last_review_date":26,"stats_updated_at":51,"headquarters_city":766,"news_editor_email":26,"platforms_covered":26,"claimed_by_user_id":26,"reviews_this_month":17,"active_authors_count":17,"headquarters_country":106,"reviews_editor_email":26,"editor_in_chief_email":26,"published_authors_count":17,"published_reviews_count":17},"https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.criticdb.com\u002Fstorage\u002Fv1\u002Fobject\u002Fpublic\u002Favatars\u002FOutlets\u002FIGN-logo.jpg","IGN","ign","ign.com","@IGN","We're all about video games, movies, TV, and comics!","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.ign.com\u002F","Los Angeles"]
