Cthulhu: The Cosmic Abyss

Big Bad Wolf is clearly using every trick in the book to make Cthulhu: The Cosmic Abyss a terrifying prospect. It looks designed to have you on edge right from the get go, and the new trailer detailing its PS5 features might make that version the one to beat.

For those who haven’t been keeping up with this one, it puts you in control of Noah, an occultist looking into the mysterious disappearance of miners on a rig in the Pacific Ocean. Your investigation is going to take you to some dark places, and Cthulhu seemingly lurks at the end of your road, ready to tear your mind apart if you let its influence overtake your senses.

The PS5 version immerses you in this frightening world with the DualSense’s haptics and adaptive triggers coming into play at key moments. Dolby Atmos support will have you right in the middle of it all if you’ve got a compatible set of speakers. We’re wondering if we’re brave enough for it under those circumstances, but immersive experiences like this are always a welcome sight.

If you’re planning on diving into the depths on PS5, Cthulhu: The Cosmic Abyss launches on April 16th for Xbox Series X/S, PS5, and PC.
