Despite its ‘mixed’ user rating on Steam, The First Descendant has racked up over 10 million players in its first week

The First Descendant: A Shaky Start

In the 1980s, British pop star Shakin’ Stevens was known for his Elvis Presley impersonation, leading to the nickname “Shakin’ version” for poor imitations of other pop stars. Tori Amos, for example, is dubbed Shakin’ Kate Bush.

Fast forward to today, and a new Twitter sensation has emerged with The First Descendant, attracting over 10 million players in its first week. The creators expressed gratitude for the support and promised great experiences ahead.

However, not all reviews have been positive, with some users criticizing the endgame grind and multiple anti-cheat programs. Our own reviewer found the game lacking the immersive elements that kept players engaged in similar titles like Destiny 2.

Despite the mixed reception, The First Descendant offers a free-to-play experience with visually appealing characters reminiscent of Korean game development styles. If you’re curious, the game is available on Steam for a test run.
