One week. That's all that stands between us and Saros hitting the PS5, or just five days if you splurged on the Deluxe Edition like the true completionist you are. Sony has dropped the official launch trailer, and buckle up because this thing is packed.
According to Push Square, the trailer is loaded with story scenes and action sequences that are largely unseen until now - so if you're trying to go in fresh, maybe sit this one out and come back after you've played it. Consider yourself warned, no saves here.
Wait, are those... aliens? On an alien planet? Shocking.
Here's where it gets juicy - the trailer apparently shows off areas and locations that look nothing like the native environments of planet Carcosa. Housemarque, the same studio that redefined the roguelite genre with Returnal, seems to be building out a genuinely deep narrative this time around.
If the lore-building vibes are anything like what they pulled off with Returnal's cryptic storytelling, we might be in for another galaxy-brained plot that has Reddit detectives working overtime for months. Honestly? Good. We love the suffering.
The sun is forever, and so is the hype
The tagline "the sun is forever, and so am I" is giving very much boss-fight-final-form energy, and we are completely here for it. Housemarque has always had a talent for making you feel simultaneously powerful and utterly destroyed, and Saros looks like it's carrying that torch without breaking a sweat.
With the launch just around the corner, this trailer is essentially the final loading screen before the real game begins. Get your DualSense charged, grab your snacks, and pray to whatever gaming deity you worship that your build actually slaps this time.
