Serum technical section
Serum It’s a game that catches the eye very well since It is made in Unreal Engine 5. It offers incredible settings, full of details and secrets to discover. The world is also very well constructed and has a lot of depth.
It must be taken into account that Serum This is a demo, so errors may occur and also do not represent the final quality of the title. In my specific case I haven’t found any errors, but cases have been reported. in which players fall out of the world or get stuck in certain locations. What I experienced were image drops, the game needs to be optimized a bit more. In addition, it is compatible with ultra-wide resolutions, although in the cutscenes we will see black bands on the sides.
Is on a good path
If you like survival gamesyou will not regret trying the demo of Serum. The new features that it offers us are not numerous, but the mechanics of the serum are very well thought out and give the game a point of tension which, in addition to being appreciated, combines very well with the aesthetics. With a launch planned for second quarter 2024, Serum It’s a game that has a lot of potential and deserves to be followed closely.
