What Firmament is
Firmament is an adventure game developed by Cyan Worlds and released in 2023. It is available on PlayStation 5, PlayStation VR2, PlayStation 4, Mac, PC (Microsoft Windows) and SteamVR. It runs on Unreal Engine 4.
The premise, in the publisher's words
"From Cyan, the indie studio that brought you Myst and Obduction, comes a new steampunk adventure. The game of Firmament is a resplendent, magical, journey — a monumental voyage through four diverse and curious realms, working in concert with an ever-present, clockwork companion, and the support and instruction of a long-dead, ethereal mentor. Everything is not as it seems."
How it plays
It is played from a first person perspective. Its themes are mystery and science fiction. It is a single-player game with no multiplayer component. There are 28 achievements to unlock.
How it was received
Firmament holds a critic score of 73 out of 100. That places it above 44% of the 7,525 rated adventure games in our database, which average 72. Games released in 2023 averaged 76, so it scored 3 points below the year average.
What you need to run it
The minimum specification calls for AMD Ryzen 7 2700X Eight-Core Processor (16 CPUs), ~3.7GHz; Intel i5 7000 series, 16 GB RAM and AMD Radeon RX 5700XT; NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 8GB. A 16GB memory requirement is demanding — worth checking before you buy, because 8GB is still common in older and budget machines. Install size is roughly 20GB. Both tiers are compared side by side on the requirements page, and you can check your own parts against them without installing anything.
What it launched against
Firmament launched on 18 May 2023, within three weeks of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, Diablo IV, Star Wars Jedi: Survivor and System Shock. All of them reviewed better. It arrived 3 years into the PlayStation 5's life, so it was built for hardware developers already knew well.
Released around the same time: The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, Diablo IV, Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, System Shock.
