Returnal, maar dan anime: maak kennis met Scar-Lead Salvation

Onlangs nog werd Saros aangekondigd, een spirituele opvolger van Returnal van ontwikkelaar Housemarque. Als dat nog niet genoeg voor je is en als je nóg meer Returnal wilt, dan is er binnenkort nog een optie. Al is die toch een beetje… anders?

Scar-Lead Salvation is een nieuwe game van Compile Heart die heel veel inspiratie bij Returnal lijkt te halen, maar dan alles overgoten met een anime-sausje. De kwaliteit van Compile Heart-games kan wel eens wisselvallig zijn, maar op zich probeert de ontwikkelaar wel telkens ons te verrassen met nieuwe dingen. Dit kan dus misschien wel iets worden voor de liefhebbers.

Scar-Lead Salvation verschijnt op 29 mei voor de PS4, PS5 en pc. Check hieronder een beschrijving en een trailer.

Play as Willow, who awakens in a deserted military facility with no memory of how she got there, accompanied only by an AI in her ear and a swarm of deadly robots. Can you uncover the mystery of what happened in the facility, learn about Willow’s past, and make your way out alive? Scar-Lead Salvation arrives on PS4®, PS5®, and Steam® on May 29, 2025!
