Luckily for you, the Gauntlet has more than enough tools and weapons to reduce the Wraiths to dust. Destroying body parts with yellow health bars won’t contribute to killing a Wraith boss but if you do destroy them, it will increase the chance of a boss dropping loot upon their death. To slay them, you must destroy each of a boss’ body parts marked with red health bars. The boss Wraiths have multiple health bars attached to specific parts of their bodies. Half of the wraiths you’ll fight are small fry that use their numbers to gang up on you, while the other half are giant bosses that hit like trucks. Wraiths are shape-shifting sand monsters who can materialize in a variety of forms including beasts, wyverns, sandworms, giant crabs, dinosaurs, humanoids, and more.

While you can fast-travel in this game by accessing anvils (which act as the game’s save points and upgrade stations), most of the time I preferred to sand-glide as it is exhilarating and visually makes my character look so cool. My favorite part of exploration is simply using the Gauntlet to glide across the open-world levels like a boat speeding across the ocean. They are satisfying to complete and serve as a nice break between exploration and combat. There are also some fun non-linear platforming segments that test your skills with the Gauntlet’s mobility tools. Not to mention the subtle foreboding atmosphere in the outdoor areas where Thelos is looking down upon you and the world from his flying fortress, the Watcher – making you feel you’re never safe from his wrath.
The environments of the open-world levels are intrinsically detailed and artistically varied with dunes, oases, mountains, partial grasslands, and battered remnants of civilization to keep exploration feeling fresh. Surprisingly, I enjoyed the exploration portion of Atlas Fallen more than I was expecting.
