Tides of Annihilation

Tides of Annihilation is, as described on its Steam page, "a fantasy action-adventure inspired by Arthurian legend". The game, which will be released for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and PC via Steam and Epic Games Store, doesn't have an official release date yet but has already published gameplay features that look quite promising.

The game's story is: London is in ruins, devastated by a sudden invasion from another dimension. As Gwendolyn, the city's sole survivor, you must battle supernatural enemies while navigating a world where reality and fantasy collide, uncovering the secrets that hold this fractured reality together.

The colossal knights that tower over the area and wander Greater London are not just awe-inspiring backdrops – they are your main opponents. You can confront these giants in epic battles, climb their immense bodies, and explore their sprawling interiors to uncover the legendary stories that shape their very being.

One unique combat feature lets you lead a squad of over ten legendary knights. Drawing inspiration from Arthurian mythology, each knight offers distinct skills and abilities that enhance your team. You can strategically combine their powers to create custom battle tactics and unleash powerful cooperative attacks.

But these short descriptions aren't all of the material we have on Tides of Annihilation's gameplay - Eclipse Glow Games has already published an 11-minute-long gameplay trailer that allows us to see the mechanics in more detail:

Here you can already see Gwendolyn using various knights as a combat element – a very creative gameplay mechanic for sure!
