ExaminerSteven RuygrokJun 20165/5 starsHaving had a great chance to digest the experience of Mirror's Edge Catalyst, I'm left with an open-world experience that doesn't sit on the crutch of weapon-driven combat, and instead lends gamers with a robust parkour system that is extremely rewarding and satisfying, all of which is set in a city that is truly worthy of a screenshot at every turn. It's a story that is touching, powerful and will have you invested in its characters. Mirror's Edge is back and it is here to stay.

Elite GamerDaire HardestyJun 20169.6/10Mirror's Edge: Catalyst could easily be my favourite game of the year. The whole idea of the game is what captivates me, it's sleek, fast and immersive!

DestructoidChris CarterJun 20168.5/10But it's been quite the journey, as Mirror's Edge Catalyst is one of the toughest reviews I've tackled in some time. It was so hard to acclimate to the changes and suffocating AAA mentality after the original was near perfect, but I think once people get over that initial shock, they'll come to adore it in spite of that.

The JimquisitionJames Stephanie SterlingJun 20165/10It's not offensive, and it's not an actively bad time, but it's so very bland and uneventful. I can't really speak for the developers, but Catalyst certainly gives the impression that they'd rather be working on literally anything else.
