A short but sweet new preorder trailer for Housemarque’s highly anticipated third-person shooter Saros was featured during The Game Awards on December 11.
The trailer didn’t tell us much we didn’t see from the previous trailer, there’s still an eclipse, Rahul Kohli being handsome and angsty, and a whole lot of projectiles and tentacles. What’s definitely new, however, is where it ended: on a new release date of April 30, 2026, pushed back from the original date of March 20.
At first glance, Saros looks like a pretty straightforward follow-up to Returnal, but it features a number of gameplay differences that pull it further away from roguelite territory. Resources and progression are not lost upon death in Saros, though the world will still be altered, providing a unique experience each run. It stars Rahul Kohli, known for Midnight Mass, The Electric State, and more.
