6About Mirror's Edge™ Catalyst
Follow Faith, a daring free runner, as she fights for freedom in the city of Glass. What appears to be an elegant, high-tech city on the outside, has a terrible secret hidden within. Explore every corner from the highest beautifully lit rooftops to the dark and gritty tunnels below. The city is huge, free to roam and Faith is at the center of it all. Through the first-person perspective, combine her fluid movement and advanced combat with the city's surroundings to master the environment and uncover the conspiracy. TRAVERSAL Hit top speed quickly zipping down wire lines. Balance on pipes before smoothly dropping to a hang before climbing, hand over hand, under an obstacle. Run vertically and horizontally on any wall and use your environment to swing around corners or over gaps. FOCUS Fast, light, and agile, Faith must stay focused and use her movement to survive. Focus is gained from free running, and once Faith has Focus enemies cannot hit her. Focus is lost from low speed and being attacked, so it is essential to maintain a balance of out-traversing opponents and engaging them directly. MOMENTUM Build momentum to do daring jumps between rooftops or stylish slides through tight

Great ideas, rough execution
Because the servers were shut down, the game gets stuck after the intro and is unplayable unless you take the time to search for a fix. I’ve already done that, so here’s the solution to save you the trouble: Open: C:\ProgramData\Electronic Arts\EA Services\License\ If 1026480.dlf is there, move it somewhere else temporarily. Do not delete it. If you already deleted the file, go to Steam - Properties - Installed Files - Verify integrity of game files. Steam should restore it. Next, open Windows Firewall and create an outbound rule that blocks MirrorsEdgeCatalyst.exe from connecting to the internet. Launch the game through Steam. Once you can control Faith, you can remove the firewall rule and move 1026480.dlf back to its original folder. After doing this, the game runs fine for me and I can unlock Steam achievements again. The two online achievements may still require the Beat Revival Project.

This game is a really solid game overall, improving on nearly everything that the first game did
This game is a really solid game overall, improving on nearly everything that the first game did. Superior movement, excellent combat, refined controls and an open world layout. It really is worth a purchase... except that EA had to be EA and shut down all online features of the game, making it outright unplayable without some major tweaks. And get this: if you want to access achievements, you have to set up a Docker container. A FLIPPIN' DOCKER CONTAINER to play a video game on Steam, because its publisher sucks eggs. Screw you, EA! Stay away until EA fixes it (if they fix it). Nobody should be forced to go to this much trouble to play a video game from a freaking decade ago. It should be criminal that this is even being sold anymore.

One of my best buys this year
with the current 95% sale, Valve fixed whatever EA broke in proton/steamdeck with this game (responding to all the recent negative reviews). runs as is without changing any compatibility settings or launch options. this, core gameplay and the city layout are the reasons i am leaving a thumb up. the story, characters, writing and skill tree are kinda bad, so only play this if you are a fan of the orig game. this is def a downgrade, but it's better than nothing. not for the full price though. still no multiplayer
