Excitement is brewing in the gaming community as Housemarque unveiled their latest project, Saros, at the February 2025 State of Play. Mark your calendars because Saros is slated to hit the shelves in 2026, promising to deliver an exhilarating experience on both the PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 5 Pro.
Releasing in 2026
Building on the legacy of their critically acclaimed third-person action game, Returnal, Saros aims to elevate the gameplay to new heights. Players will step into the shoes of Arjun Devraj, brought to life by the talented Hollywood actor Rahul Kohli. This new title is not just a follow-up but a bold evolution of the thrilling mechanics and narrative style that fans adored in Returnal.
Come Back Stronger
Housemarque's creative director, Gregory Louden, has expressed that Saros was crafted to allow Returnal to stand independently while establishing a new intellectual property. Saros will not only iterate on the storytelling and gameplay mechanics of its predecessor but will introduce permanent and evolving loadouts. These include an array of weapons and suits designed to help players "Come Back Stronger," ensuring they can overcome any obstacle they encounter.
Gamers eager to dive deeper into Saros can look forward to an extended gameplay reveal later in 2025. Stay tuned for more updates on this highly anticipated title.
