At its best, Mirror's Edge Catalyst is a joyous flight across the rooftops of a gorgeous city, with a grace that belies the weight and impact of Faith's movement, but DICE seem to forget this on a few occasions, dragging it down with combat that brings the free running to a halt.

The use of red to draw your attention still works incredibly well, and Faith's "Runner's Vision" ability makes navigating the city a breeze. There's certainly a whole lot of game here.

To be honest, I was disappointed shortly after I first started playing Mirror's Edge Catalyst as I was put off by the open world approach that quickly got boring and repetitive. However, there is still a fun game here if you are more interested in the story sequences than the side-quests.
