Sony’s recent State of Play showcase featured plenty of updates on previously announced titles, from Borderlands 4 and Lost Soul Aside to Onimusha: Way of the Sword and more. However, the show also had some new announcements to make.
One game that caught the eye was Tides of Annihilation. The fantasy action-adventure title by new Eclipse Glow Games, a Tencent-funded studio that boasts veteran talent who worked on Yakuza, Persona, For Honor, Assassin’s Creed, and more.
Tides of Annihilation is set in London – which comes under sudden (and heavy) siege from mysterious entities not of this world – as well as the fantasy realm of Avalon. Players play as Gwendolyn, who awakens to powers that allow her to command the legendary Knights of the Round Table. With these powers, she embarks to rescue her sister and defeat the demigods invading Earth.
On top of a story inspired by Arthurian legend, the game will also tout “distinct features such as a unique dual-knight fighting system and immense levels in the form of gigantic knights roaming the city of London”, according to Eclipse Glow. Check out the trailer below for more details.
Tides of Annihilation is in development for PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC (with PS5 Pro support). A release date or window hasn’t been announced.
