Housemarque’s Returnal isn’t going to be a walk in the park and today the developer and Sony Interactive Entertainment released a new trailer.
The video focuses on the rather horrible monsters that we’ll face on the mysterious planet Atropos, and there’s quite a variety of stuff of nightmares to content with.
You can check it out for yourself below.
Returnal is coming exclusively for PS5 and has recently been delayed to April 30, 2021. If you’d like to see more, you can enjoy the original announcement, more gameplay, another trailer, one focusing on the planet, and another on the story.
If you’re unfamiliar with the game, you can read an official description below.
“After crash-landing on this shape-shifting world, Selene must search through the barren landscape of an ancient civilization for her escape. Isolated and alone, she finds herself fighting tooth and nail for survival. Again and again, she’s defeated – forced to restart her journey every time she dies.
Through relentless roguelike gameplay, you’ll discover that just as the planet changes with every cycle, so do the items at your disposal. Every loop offers new combinations, forcing you to push your boundaries and approach combat with a different strategy each time.
Brought to life by stunning visual effects, the dark beauty of the decaying world around you is packed with explosive surprises. From high stakes, bullet hell-fueled combat, to visceral twists and turns through stark and contrasting environments. You’ll explore, discover and fight your way through an unforgiving journey, where mystery stalks your every move.
Designed for extreme replayability, the procedural world of Returnal invites you to dust yourself off in the face of defeat and take on new, evolving challenges with every rebirth.”
