‘Salt and Sacrifice’ Arrives May 10 for PS5, PS4 [Trailer]
With a new trailer, developer Ska Studios has finally dropped the release date for their upcoming 2D Soulslike Salt and Sacrifice. The follow-up to Salt and Sanctuary will arrive on May 10 for the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5, and it can be assumed that it’ll arrive on the same day for PC via the Epic Games Store.
The announcement was made as part of Sony’s “PlayStation Indies” event earlier today. In addition, Ska Studios member James Silva dropped a bit more information on the game over at PlayStation Blog, particularly in regards to its Player-vs-Player combat, the new abilities players have in the game, as well a bit of info on the sects that players can join.
The story for Salt And Sacrifice concerns the decaying Altarstone Kingdom, where Mages have spread corruption through the land. Only the Marked Inquisitors—criminals who elect to fight instead of face execution—stand in the Mages’ way.

Atari is reaching back for fans of the classic GameCube and Xbox fighter Godzilla: Destroy All Monsters Melee with a remastered edition that’s coming November 3 to PC via Steam, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and the Nintendo Switch 2. The PS5 and Switch 2 will also be receiving physical versions that you can pre-order now.
“There is a real sense of responsibility that comes with working on Godzilla, especially with a fan-favorite title like Destroy All Monsters Melee,” explains Atari chief creative officer Mike Mika. “It is only natural that Atari, as the original publisher in 2002, would partner with Pipeworks, the original developer and kaiju experts to bring their creation back to center stage—bigger, better and more destructive than ever.”
The ultimate kaiju arena brawler is back, completely remastered. From Atari and original developer, Pipeworks, Godzilla: Destroy All Monsters Melee Remastered updates the 2002 fighter with enhanced visuals and quality of life improvements. Choose from one of twelve monsters, and battle it out with a range of brutal attacks through 8 locations, each with day and night variations. Battle through real-world cities, Monster Island, and the alien Mothership. Face off against your friends in local co-op or new online multiplayer.
Along with the updated visuals, Godzilla: Destroy All Monsters Melee Remastered also features gameplay updates, as well as an improved unlock system, so you can unlock monsters, locations, and gallery items in any order you choose.
