Defunct Games reviews Berzerk: Recharged, available now on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, Switch and PC.
Fight for your life while navigating a complicated maze and escaping Evil Otto! That’s right, Berzerk is back and fully Recharged, giving a brand-new generation the anxiety of being hunted by a massive bouncing ball with a huge smiley face. While not as original or unique as other games in the Recharged series, this updated remake has a lot going for it, including cool power-ups and tons of challenge missions to complete. Too bad the loose gameplay and bland visuals keep this otherwise fun shoot ‘em up from reaching its full potential. Action game fans will enjoy the familiarity of Berzerk, but I would recommend you stick with one of the better games in the Recharged series, like Quantum, Yars or Gravitar.
