PlayStation has confirmed that Saros, Housemarque’s upcoming sci-fi shooter, will be featured at The Game Awards 2025. The September State of Play showcase teased fast-paced combat, otherworldly enemies, and a reshuffling world in the first gameplay presentation, and the news means a larger update is on the way.
With only days to go, hype is building within the community. Saros is building a strong reputation as one of PlayStation’s most anticipated upcoming exclusives. It’s described as being built on Housemarque’s classic DNA while pivoting further toward progression and storytelling.
Saros confirmed for The Game Awards 2025
PlayStation confirmed the feature in a new post on its official X account. The message promises that players will get a “new look” at Saros, but it remains unclear if that means extended gameplay, a cinematic trailer, or more information on the story.
Either way, a major update is likely considering the timing and size of the event. The September State of Play feature gave players an initial impression of Saros, though it was just a glimpse at some of its faster combat, atmospheric environments, and reshuffling world that changes after each death.
The Game Awards presentation may build on these systems or provide context on the colony of Carcosa that players find themselves in under a permanent and eerie eclipse.
Pre-Orders likely to be announced soon
Many players are also predicting The Game Awards reveal will include Saros’s pre-order window. The theory gained traction after the title was recently rated in Taiwan, a common precursor to pre-order announcements.
The potential reveal of a new trailer alongside pre-order information would put Saros among the most significant announcements for the event. Housemarque details Saros as a story-driven tale about a lost off-world colony on the “forgotten planet” of Saros.
World reshuffles on each death, but players respawn with unlockable weapons, suit parts, and an evolving arsenal that unlocks several playstyles over time. The progression structure may help Saros be more accessible than Returnal while maintaining the intensity and atmosphere of the series.
