Will get to this review shortly. Skimming the article, I noticed that sources 2, 7, 53, 84 and 85 don't cite the website they're from. Some sources are also missing wikilinks. Just a few minor inconsistencies I would take care of. Cognissonance (talk) 13:57, 17 October 2016 (UTC)

Gameplay

 * "the game makes use of audio and visuals cues" — Fix grammar: "the game makes use of audio and visual cues".

Development

 * "The game's lead developer was 4A Games, based in Ukraine. The game was developed by more than 80 people" — There are some undesirable repetitions here. Perhaps make it its own sentence: "The Ukraine-based lead developer 4A Games made the game with a team of more than 80 people".
 * "the team decided to keep the feature in Last Light but to improve" — The second "to" is not necessary.

Release

 * "being victims over the game's release.of any uncertainty" reads like a mess. Replace with "being misled by the game's uncertain release".
 * "Both Ubisoft, Clearlake, and Koch Media, who were originally set to distribute the title" — Ubisoft is not mentioned in the VG247 citation, which would explain the inaccurate use of "Both"; Clearlake is mentioned in the following Gamasutra source. "who were" should be replaced with "the latter of which was", referring to Koch Media.

Downloadable content

 * Sources 56 and 57 are duplicates of each other. Remove 56, since it is missing parameters.
 * Source 58 is missing the first= last= date= accessdate= parameters.
 * Can Coin-Op TV (source 59) and RealGamerNewz (source 60) be replaced?
 * GameTrailers (source 61) merely goes to its YouTube homepage. This needs to be repaired.
 * "within 60 days of the release of the" can be simplified with "within 60 days of releasing".
 * Xbox360Achievements.org (source 62) doesn't strike me as reliable.
 * I'm not too sure about Steamprices.com (source 66). Can it be replaced?

Redux version

 * The announcement is not mentioned in the cited source. Remove or find a source to confirm it.
 * CBS Interactive should be removed as publisher from source 68.
 * "Last Light Redux was released as DRM-free games" — Fix grammar: "Last Light Redux was released as a DRM-free game".

Critical reception

 * "multiple flashback scene" — Fix grammar: "multiple flashback scenes".
