Preview: 6 Ways PS5’s Tides of Annihilation Blew Me Away After 2 Hours of Play

Push Square · 4 hours ago

Push Square previewed *Tides of Annihilation*, an upcoming PS5 action game from developer Eclipse Glow Games, following a two-hour hands-on session in Chengdu, China. The outlet compares its promise favourably to *Stellar Blade*, praising its combat and setting as strong reasons for anticipation ahead of release.

The game centres on heroine Gwendolyn, who fights using a "dual frontline system" combining her own sword attacks with summoned knights inspired by Arthurian legend, such as Kay, Palamedes and Bedivere, each with distinct combat abilities mapped to specific controller buttons. Players can equip two knight loadouts and switch between them on the fly, and the developer cites influences including Devil May Cry, Final Fantasy, God of War and JoJo's Bizarre Adventure. The preview also highlights a modern-London-inspired setting the team researched through several visits to the city, though the article is cut short before further details are given.

  • Push Square previewed PS5 action game Tides of Annihilation for two hours.
