#Returnal tips how to
One of the basics you need to learn in this Returnal guide is how to Overload your weapon in a Gears of War-style QTE that reloads whenever you run out of ammunition – otherwise, you won’t have to worry about reloading manually or ammo and the gun will be filled with too much ammo. One thing we will say is keeping your distance means you will get fewer Items from enemies before they disappear. The Spitmaw is a closer range shotgun for those who like to get stuck, but it’s more of a risk to get too close to some of the stronger enemies and isn’t really the best weapon for boss fights! A variety of weapons can hit their target from across the room, whether it’s the basic Modified Sidearm SD-B8 or the Tachyomatic Carbine you use early on. Stay tuned for future Returnal guides and updates, as we won’t be putting this one down any time soon.One of the first things to learn with Returnal is that you can actually keep your distance from enemies sending waves of orbs in your direction. Don’t give her that satisfaction – check out our guide to beating Phrike.Īnd remember to have fun because, to quote Bob Dylan, death is not the end. Phrike is definitely a step up in terms of difficulty, and is likely responsible for many players ultimately giving up on the game. Once you’ve mastered the first biome you will eventually find yourself face-to-face with Returnal‘s first boss. It’s light on spoilers and heavy with valuable information. It’s a laid back stroll through the opening biome that identifies and explains pretty much everything you will come across. If you are still struggling with Returnal, I recommend watching our video guide. It isn’t so much that any action is right or wrong, but rather that the context of the decision determines whether it is or isn’t. Stay away from the malignant chunk, especially if you already have a number of active malfunctions. If you already have loads of Obolites (currency) then it doesn’t make sense to risk a suit malfunction gaining more.

This advice regarding picking things up extends past parasites too. If you have five Atropian keys, the parasite that damages you for using keys may be somewhat self-defeating. That said, use your head if there is an obvious lack of synchronicity between your gear and a parasite, then leave it be. However in general they should be trusted, as the benefits they offer almost always outweigh their negatives. Our Returnal guide simply isn’t big enough to weigh up the pros and cons of individual parasites.

This is really useful in the starting area because of the way health drops work in Returnal health items will restore your current health if you are wounded, but contribute towards upgrading your health capacity if you are uninjured. You can rest in Selene’s crashed spaceship, and doing so replenishes your integrity (health).

It is tempting to try to rush back to a new area that you haven’t seen much of, but unless you have incredible reflexes and ability, you will be rushing to a premature demise.
This philosophy is very important once you unlock the second biome. Make strategic decisions that will result in Selene getting stronger, and only take risks that truly appear worth it. Just because you come across a golden door, doesn’t mean you should go through it.
