Following its global announcement at the recent State of Play, Tides of Annihilation has released an extended gameplay trailer that dives deeper into the action-packed world awaiting players. This upcoming title promises thrilling gameplay and an immersive narrative. Let's explore what's in store.
First revealed during the PlayStation State of Play, Tides of Annihilation is a hack-and-slash action-adventure game that has sparked significant interest with its latest extended gameplay trailer. The footage features protagonist Gwendolyn and her sword-transforming companion, Niniane, as they navigate the ruins of a devastated, otherworldly London, following an Outworld invasion.
As they traverse the crumbling streets, they encounter numerous adversaries. A standout feature is Gwendolyn's ability to summon a group of over ten legendary knights, drawing inspiration from King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table.
Their journey leads them through a magical portal and into a high-stakes boss battle against Mordred, a character with conflicting goals to Gwendolyn. This confrontation highlights the game's dynamic and intense combat system, underscored by a haunting choir.
According to Kun Fu, the game's producer, as shared on the PlayStation.Blog, Tides of Annihilation will offer "intuitive co-op combat in a single-player experience." Players can summon two spectral knights with unique combat roles at a time, requiring strategic planning. "The interplay between Gwendolyn and the knights creates a dynamic, fast-paced, and deeply engaging combat experience. It’s a system that our team (veterans from top game studios) fell in love with during internal playtests."
The trailer has garnered praise for its art direction, style, and fluid, fast-paced combat, reminiscent of classics like Devil May Cry and Bayonetta. Fans have also drawn comparisons to Elden Ring, NieR: Automata, Stellar Blade, and Final Fantasy 16. Enthusiasts have expressed their excitement and confidence in the game's "immense potential," eagerly anticipating its launch.
Tides of Annihilation marks the debut title from Chengdu-based studio Eclipse Glow Games, blending Arthurian legends with a modern-day, post-apocalyptic London. Players will step into the role of Gwendolyn, a survivor navigating this ravaged world. While a specific release date remains undisclosed, the game is set to launch on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S.
