Upcoming PlayStation Exclusive Saros Might Be “Interstellar of Video Games”

There are a few upcoming PlayStation 5 exclusives that are currently in development and expected to release this year, like Marvel’s Wolverine and Saros, and such titles as Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet or God of War: Trilogy Remake, which don’t have release dates yet.

Perhaps Saros, developed by Housemarque, the developers of Returnal, is the least intriguing project compared to the other games mentioned above. However, the latest report from Legion Looterana might cause many people to change their minds. According to the source, Saros could be considered as “Interstellar in the world of video games”, and as an example, there are missions in the game that could last a couple of days, but for your planet, it could last decades or even centuries. So far, it’s not confirmed how it could impact the game’s story, but it’s definitely a unique and exciting feature.

“THIS WILL BLOW YOUR MIND

The new RPG Exodus, successor to Mass Effect, has a mechanic that will blow your mind (and break your heart):

TIME DILATION

You go on a mission, and 3 days pass. For your planet, your family, and your crew, DECADES or CENTURIES have gone by.

Every time you return, the entire world will have changed drastically without you. Basically, Interstellar as a video game.”

Soon we will find out whether Housemarque could make a proper PlayStation 5 exclusive, as Insider Gaming reveals that the embargo on Saros’ reviews lifts on April 24.

Saros is the upcoming sci-fi third-person action RPG set in the future. You play as Soltari enforcer Arjun Devrai, and alongside your crew, the task is to explore the planet of Carcosa, where the human colony vanished. Carcosa is also in a state of perpetual eclipse, which distorts reality and directly influences gameplay and the plot.
