Saros Gameplay

According to the developers, Saros will be departing from the ever-changing and resetting mechanics, and will instead feature permanent resources, weapons, armors, and upgrades to allow players to tackle the challenges that could defeat them throughout their adventures.

Based on their latest gameplay trailer, Saros builds upon Returnal's gameplay, presenting a new experience with a wide variety of combat options and weapons. Protagonist Arjun Soltari will have an array of items and weaponry to combat the forces of Carcosa.

His advanced combat suit allows players to dash, melee, jump, and more. At the start of every run, players will select from a mix of Soltari human and Carcosan alien weaponry. These weapons exude the brutal,yet awe-inspiring elements of this sci-fi power fantasy.

Aside from weapons, players can use the Soltari Shield as their defensive mechanism to absorb the energy of hostile projectiles by running into them, thereby bolstering their defense. Energy that has been absorbed from incoming attacks can be used to charge players' Carcosan Power Weapon, then discharge this explosive energy at enemies.

Meanwhile, the Power Weapons effectively transform Arjun's right arm into an eclipse-fuelled weapon, though this process is corrupting him. This weapon provides an alternate and customizable method for the character to inflict devastating damage on adversaries.

Upon his first death, Arjun can utilize eclipse corruption energy to immediately resurrect with the "Second Chance" ability.. This ability is a component of the permanent-progression systems integrated into Saros. These systems are designed to ensure the character always becomes stronger after each death, and they also include the option to upgrade Arjun's Soltari advanced combat suit and its abilities.

Saros Story Plot

Image

Saros centers around the protagonist Arjun Devraj, a Soltari Enforcer played by Hollywood actor Rahul Kohli. Arjun is on an isolated off-world colony on the planet of Carsosa that is experiencing a mysterious and ominous eclipse. He ventures throughout the barren landscapes in search of a mysterious person he’s looking for.

The story is stated to be an emotional character study that dives deep into the concept of the sacrifices one must make to create a new future for oneself and for others.
