PS5 “bullet ballet” game Saros gets a big update to make it both easier and harder

The Zenith update for *Saros* adds a slow-motion option and new difficulty settings, alongside fresh challenges for players who have completed the game. It aims to make the PS5 shooter easier to approach while preserving its projectile-heavy combat, and to give experienced players more reasons to return.

Players can adjust the slowdown manually or automatically, choose from 10 Protection modifiers for help, or use Trial modifiers to increase the challenge. Completing the game unlocks Eclipse Layers, a New Game Plus mode with altered rules and 12 story visions; Overlord Rush offers boss fights in 10-minute bursts, including a final gauntlet against all eight Overlords. *Saros* launched in April and was well reviewed, though its sales started more slowly than those of *Returnal*.
