Tides of Annihilation, one of the games that most caught attention in the last State of Play, has been seen again with a trailer with gameplay 11 minutes. This title is in the hands of the Chinese study Eclipse Glow Games and for now it has no release date. We only know that when it reaches the market it will be available for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series and PC through Steam and Epic Games Store.

The history of Tides of Annihilation places us in an alternative version of London that has been devastated by creatures from another world. The protagonist is Gwendolyn, a young woman with the power to control a mysterious gray fog that allows her to invoke spectral knights to fight at her side. In the video we can see it accompanied by Ninian while looking for granal fragments. At the beginning of the footage, our heroine fights with minor enemies and during the second part he faces a boss called Mordred

Tides of Annihilation is a game in which many elements related to arthuric legends can be detected. Grail's search is one of the main missions of the Knights of the Round Table; Gwendolyn's name is inspired by Guinevere «Gwen» Pendragon who became a regent queen of Camelot; The knights that our protagonist invokes could be those of the round table; Ninian is the lady of the Lake; And finally Mordred is called the same as the bastard son of Arturo and Morgana.

The Tides of Annihilation combat system and its gameplay are largely based on the invocation of spectral knights. Each of them has a different role and Gwendolyn can call two as long as it has Maná. Players must choose which one is better in function of their style of play and the challenge they face. In addition to fighting, in the trailer we see that there are some puzzles where the knights and exploration phases that will take us to emblematic places in London also intervene.

During his adventure for this devastated version of London, players will tour two worlds. In one we have the modern London that suffers a supernatural invasion, and in another there is a medieval fantasy kingdom with arthuric influences, magic and mythical creatures.
