Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0/day in the week to Aug 5 → 0/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,400 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Reviews
Absurdly fun, way more than it deserves to be. Who knew flying around in a huge dragon would be so fun
I had the chance to jump into the demo during a few months back, and I’m thoroughly impressed. The Phoenix Gene is proving to be something special as I progress through the game. The gameplay is a blast, but what really caught me off guard was the engaging storytelling—it’s clear there is a lot of heart and depth that was poured into this world. As a long-time supporter of Heromation, I’ve always appreciated their creative vision and their memorable animated films. Seeing that same level of artistry and narrative flair translate into a game is fantastic. It’s refreshing to see such unique, high-quality content coming from a small development company. Definitely a developer worth supporting!

This Phoenix Gene is absolutely fun and great call back to the best arcade shooters of the past. Having to keep an eye out all around you to both dodge and shoot keeps you on your toes and will give you a great workout at the same time. Luckily I can reduce the difficulty if I just want a fun casual play through. The game runs incredibly well, controls are comfortable and easy to remember and the amount of customization to control your level of difficulty and play is well thought out. Tons of re-playability through unlocks and character progression will have me diving back into this game for hours. I'm also a sucker for speed running so keeping a record of your best scores is much appreciated.
Joguei bastante a versao de Q2 e um pouco no Q3. Jogo unico, vale cada centavo. Se voce gostar de On rails shooter esse jogo eh pra voce. Vale tambem mencionar a trilha sonora incrivel do mesmo compositor de Golden Eye, Grant Kirkhope.
fun game
Super fun shooter game with a cool sci-fi story! I like the protection mission & 1st boss in particular. I definitely plan to play more, but 5 stars so far!
The games is quite an enjoyable experience. The movement is responsive and the game ran smoothly with my headset(Meta Quest 2). My only real gripe I had playing was the shooting angle being a bit too high, but it sounds like there are settings in the preferences for that. Overall I am invested in the story and will highly recommend this game to those who enjoy story based games with action elements.
Absolutely amazing. Fast frame rates. Great options to customize the game. Played on the Quest 2 with Virtual Desktop. Even has support for my bHaptics equipment.
