Tides of Annihilation, a new action-RPG from Eclipse Glow Games, blends Arthurian myth with a post-apocalyptic London setting. This unique concept, revealed in a recent Wccftech interview, stems from Tencent's directive to target a Western audience, contrasting with their other project, the China-focused Black Myth: Wukong.
Arthurian Legends in a Ruined London
The game centers on Gwendolyn, the seemingly sole human survivor of an Outworld invasion that has devastated modern-day London. While grounded in a contemporary, post-apocalyptic setting, the narrative incorporates significant fantasy elements directly inspired by Arthurian legends, including the Knights of the Round Table who fight alongside Gwendolyn.
Devil May Cry-Inspired Combat and Challenging Boss Battles
Tides of Annihilation boasts a Devil May Cry-inspired combat system, offering customizable playstyles with four distinct weapons and over ten recruitable Knights. The developers emphasize accessibility, providing adjustable difficulty settings to cater to a broader player base. The game features over 30 bosses, promising challenging and engaging encounters.
Potential for a Mythological Anthology
Eclipse Glow Games envisions Tides of Annihilation as the potential first installment in a larger anthology. Future entries might explore different mythologies and settings, each with a unique protagonist, while retaining the core concept of the Outworld invasion. The success of Tides of Annihilation will be key to realizing this ambitious vision.
Currently in beta, Tides of Annihilation is slated for a 2026 release on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. Players will journey with Gwendolyn as she confronts destiny and battles to save both London and the intertwined fantasy realm of Avalon.
