Soulslike ‘Bleak Faith: Forsaken’ Arrives July 5 on PlayStation, Xbox
Perp Games and developer Archangel Studios have announced that their action RPG Soulslike Bleak Faith: Forsaken will be heading to consoles this summer. Previously released in March 2023 on PC via Steam, the game will arrive on PlayStation 5 and the Xbox Series on July 5.
In Bleak Faith, you are one of the Forsaken, the last frontier of humanity against the growing horrors of the Omnistructure. You must traverse the Omnistructure and put your valor to the test. Uncover a forgotten history through the lens of a lost civilization while exploring an expansive, handcrafted world. The Omnistructure is tremendous, and there is no singular path leading to the ultimate goal.
As you might expect from a Soulslike, combat is treacherous and will push you to your limits. Positioning, timing, and resource-management are all things you must keep in mind at all times. How you undertake each encounter is up to you. Do you take the silent route by downing enemies from the shadows with a pair of daggers, sniping them with arrows, or even scale gigantic monsters and bosses to take them down?
You have at your disposal hundreds of unique weapons and equipment to discover and combine as you see fit, with nothing being obsolete. Combat in Bleak Faith: Forsaken is complemented with an in-depth class and perk system, allowing you to further customize your experience.
Remember back in 2022 when developer Survios had announced that they were teaming up with 20th Century Games to develop a new Alien title? Well seeing as it’s Alien Day, Survios has announced their brand-new VR title, Alien: Rogue Incursion. Coming “Holiday 2024” to the PlayStation VR2, SteamVR, and Quest 3, Rogue Incursion will feature an original story that “fully surrounds players within the terrors of the Alien universe”.
Details on the game are light at the moment, but the official site describes the upcoming title as being “designed by Alien fans for Alien fans”, with Survios aiming to craft a “technically advanced, and frightfully immersive Alien virtual reality game.”
Seeing as Alien: Isolation never got official VR support when it was released, this is obviously a welcome announcement. In the meantime, if you’re keen to experience an Alien game in VR, you can always check out the fan-made mod for Alien: Isolation by Nibre_, which allows both the Steam and Epic Games Store version of Alien: Isolation to be played using the Oculus.
And speaking of Alien: Isolation, as you might expect, it’s got a hefty 80% discount going on at the moment on Steam until May 1. So if you still haven’t grabbed it after all these years, this is as good a time as any.
