Niffelheim launched on 26 September 2018, within three weeks of Marvel's Spider-Man, Assassin's Creed Odyssey, Marvel's Spider-Man and Shadow of the Tomb Raider. All of them reviewed better. It arrived 5 years into the PlayStation 4's life, so it was built for hardware developers already knew well.

Released around the same time: Marvel's Spider-Man, Assassin's Creed Odyssey, Marvel's Spider-Man, Shadow of the Tomb Raider.
