- Total Chaos (PS5) Review - 24 November 2025
Total Chaos is finally getting a full release, and it feels a bit surreal. It is the kind of fan-mod project people used to talk about often: technically impressive, very ambitious and something players hoped would become a full game. Seeing it sold as a standalone title in 2025 is something few expected. Even with the updates and improvements, you can still sense the mod at its core, and there is nothing wrong with that. You can tell right away that the developers didn’t try to “modernize” it the way some remasters, or reimaginings do. The whole thing still looks damp and rusty, in that early-2000s , dull-coloured environment kind of way. I don’t know how to explain it other than everything feels swollen, like the walls themselves are waterlogged. Sometimes the lighting hits a corner or a doorway in a way that made me genuinely uncomfortable, but not because of what might be hiding in…
