Release Date: October 22, 2024
An action adventure game, with a 2.5D view and some metroidvania elements. Kong: Survivor Instinct is related to Godzilla vs. Kong movie - we end up in a Hong Kong destroyed by the huge monsters. We control a character who's trying to survive and find his daughter.
Kong: Survivor Instinct is a 2.5D action platforming game. It is set in the Monsterverse world, which includes such pop culture icons as Godzilla and King Kong. What's more, the whole thing takes place shortly after the events of the movie Godzilla vs. Kong from the Legendary studio. The game was created by the independent Polish studio 7Levels, whose portfolio includes the similar genre game Jet Kave Adventure.
The battle between Godzilla and King Kong destroyed Hong Kong, leaving behind a labyrinth of ruins.
In Kong: Survivor Instinct we play the role of David, an oil rig worker who must make his way through the city and find his missing daughter Stacy. As we go through the devastated city streets, we encounter other surviving residents. Some of them want to help us in our journey, others are fighting with us for resources.
In addition, our path will be crossed by the bloodthirsty Titan Abaddon and also by the eco-terrorist leader Alan Jonah, known from the Godzilla II: King of the Monsters movie.
The game features dexterity sequences, combat, and exploration in the style of metroidvania. Thanks to the resources, weapons, and tools we collect, we are able to cope with challenges and move forward.
We can defeat opponents directly with a melee weapon in the form of a hammer or from a distance using a pistol.
Titans pose a huge threat, but they can also be helpful. For this purpose, we use the prototype of Monarch technology, known as ORKA Sigma. It's only up to us how these huge monsters will affect our journey.

Game Ratings for Kong: Survivor Instinct Video Game.
Press Start: 4.5 / 10 by Brodie Gibbons
By backseating Kong and having a drab human narrative serve as the vessel for this game's monotonous action, Kong: Survival Instinct ends up feeling like a colossal, kaiju-sized dud that does little to lick the wounds of last year's Skull Island and, if anything, further dampens the great ape's reputation.
Skewed & Reviewed: 4 / 5
In the end the game provided a very engaging and at times challenging adventure that required a mix of skills as it was a very unexpected delight from the start.
Worth Playing: 7 / 10 by Cody Medellin
In the end, Kong: Survivor Instinct is a pleasant surprise when compared to the rest of the Kong-related games up to this point. The story isn't that great, but it has enough of a hook to keep players going. The platforming can be quirky, especially during the big chase sequences, but it works fine most of the time to provide some fun sections. The same can be said of the combat, which has flaws but also gives players the chance to take care of enemies in a few fun ways. The adventure isn't too long, but it is satisfying enough once the end credits roll. It isn't a sleeper hit, but it isn't a bad experience to go through for a day or two.
