Cthulhu: The Cosmic Abyss

Don your Lovecraftian hats and try to stay in your seats when you watch the latest trailer for Cthulu: Call of the Abyss, which showcases the game’s opening moments ahead of its April release for the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S and PC.

You play as Noah, an investigator of the occult, looking into the disappearances of miners at an underwater mining facility in the Pacific Ocean. The year is 2053, but Lovecraftian horror continues to weave its morbid magic in a world that does the sub-genre’s themes justice. The story begins with a montage of events that set up a clear sequence for Noah to follow as he descends into the depths of R’lyeh. His sanity – and all of ours – is going to be tested, and Cthulhu lies in wait, tightening its grip on the player.

Noah isn’t alone, though, as Key, his AI companion, is by his side, assisting him in a myriad of ways while serving as a lone voice of comfort in the darkness that he’s about to dive into. Cthulhu: Call of the Abyss is going to be featured at the next Nacon Connect alongside other titles if you’re looking to get another glimpse at the title. Until then, you can check out the latest trailer below.
