The Consensus
Across YouTube, Reddit and Steam the verdict is consistent: Far Far West is a tight, ambitious co-op shooter punching above its Early Access weight. Reviewers consistently compare it to Deep Rock Galactic and Helldivers 2, while flagging the same issues — weapon balance churn and content gaps that will (likely) fill in over the EA roadmap.
What Critics Loved
- Tight 4-player gunplay with real squad coordination.
- Roguelike joker layer adds replayability between runs.
- Weird-West setting — fresh visual identity in 2026.
What Critics Disliked
- Aggressive weapon nerfs in early patches.
- Snake enemies and self-aim snipers feel un-fun before you learn counters.
- Limited endgame at launch.
