- The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe is a good update to an already great game. If you have never played this before, now is your chance to experience a truly unique and brilliantly clever game. If you have played the original version before, there is enough new content here to keep you entertained. Just donât read too much about it before heading in.
Jamie Ward · Nov 12, 2022 Reviewed on SwitchRead full review - Ultra Deluxe is easily going to be one of the finest gaming experiences of the year, despite its short length relative to most. This is a game that gets in, says exactly what its creators wanted to say, and then gets out…maybe. The most ridiculous elements of the original are still perfectly preserved here, and then amplified in the new content, letting the player experience exactly what they want to.
Colin Buchanan · May 23, 2022 Reviewed on PCRead full review - Regardless, the new content is where the game truly opens up for players that have walked these office halls before, and the commentary on more modern video game design starts to creep in, in hilarious and surprising ways.
Jon Clarke · May 08, 2022 Reviewed on Series X|SRead full review - The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe might joke about overly aggrandizing reviews, but it’s one of the few games that’s actually deserving of one. For all its smugness, I’d love to sit here and tell you that The Stanley Parable is pretentious and full of shit, but it earns every right to its pretension.
Noelle Warner · May 07, 2022 Reviewed on PCRead full review - The Stanley Parable is an extremely worthwhile video game and, I would argue, one of the finest examples of meta-humor (as well as humor in general) in the medium. Just don’t read too much before you play it.
Alex Culafi · May 05, 2022 Reviewed on SwitchRead full review - And with that, I’m going to bow out. Without wanting to sound preachy, just know that you’ve never played anything like The Stanley Parable, and this Ultra Deluxe edition just expands on that in ways I couldn’t have foreseen. There are a lot of titles that gain short term notoriety thanks to the memes or streamers reacting, but this will outlast anything else that has come before and deserves to be considered one of the very best game experiences of all time.
Jamie Collyer · May 04, 2022 Reviewed on Series X|SRead full review - Anyways, Stanley Parable’s “Ultra Deluxe” no content is pretty wonderful. So much so that it almost feels like you’ve discovered a sequel as opposed to additional content. The narration is still incredible. The new endings are just as clever, thought-provoking and/or bizarre as always, and is just an absolute treasure to have around.
Eric Halliday · May 02, 2022 Reviewed on SwitchRead full review - The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe is an essential title. Not only does it refine a classic, but it also expands on it. In its cheeky knowing manner, it celebrates and mocks the very ideology of the re-release. With plenty of laughs throughout, the zany game beckons you to explore and rewards you with nuggets of gold at each point.
Jaz Sagoo · Apr 30, 2022 Reviewed on Series X|SRead full review - The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe expertly expands the original critically acclaimed narrative adventure with hours of brilliantly written new content and a lot more of Kevan Brighting's incredible narration. Even if you played the original, you shouldn't miss this updated version.
Zachary Boddy · Apr 29, 2022 Reviewed on Series X|SRead full review - Ultra Deluxe may seem like little more than a decent lighting improvement and a simple console port on the surface, but the new content that’s been added alongside those things is on the scale of a whole new game.
