Description
Housemarque have been a staple in gaming for many a decade, starting life back on the amazing Commodore Amiga and Stardust, a game I still own. They have always made arcade focused, gameplay first, titles. With a flair for awesome visuals, challenging, but skill-based action and a penchant for technical achievements.
Saros is the unofficial sequel to 2020s Returnal, again built with Unreal Engine, 5th iteration, and continues to push on particles, bullet ballet hell swarms, tentacle tech and a slightly easier difficulty curve. But the game also has a PS5 Pro version which offers an even bigger push up the power stack with Image quality but not framerate.
