This glossy action adventure delivered the most impressive spectacle in Sony’s February State Of Play. As a ruined modern-day London is visited by stone colossi that would make the Shard look like a splinter, it layers on the style, while combat is no less vivacious, lithe protagonist Gwendolyn setting about her foes with a range of spectral elemental attacks. Streets dotted with red phone and post boxes have us wondering, though, if the setting is inspired more by China’s surreal Thames Town than England’s actual capital. And the mock British accents emitted by the cast may have you spitting out your afternoon tea.
