PS5 trailers

The PlayStation channel posted the reveal trailer in June 2025, and it is the most-watched End of Abyss video on an official platform channel. It shows top-down twin-stick combat in an underground facility. The channel later posted the release date trailer confirming October 1, 2026.

What the game is like

End of Abyss is a top-down twin-stick sci-fi horror game with Metroidvania progression. You play as Cel, a young combat technician, exploring an abandoned underground compound with a Scanner and a growing set of tools. PlayStation.com highlights Scanner exploration, gear upgrades and paths that open as you get stronger.

The left stick moves and the right stick aims, with a stamina-free dodge roll and limited healing. See controls and the beginner guide.

Settings to check in your first PS5 session

Previewers describe End of Abyss as hard and precise, so a few minutes in the options menu can make a real difference. The PlayStation Store confirms the settings below exist on PS5. Adjust them before the first fight rather than mid-combat.

  • Stick sensitivity: twin-stick aiming needs precision; tune the right stick until small corrections feel controllable.
  • Vibration and trigger effects: keep them on for feedback, or turn them off if they tire your hands in long sessions.
  • Subtitles: helpful for documents and lore, since some characters speak an invented language rather than English.

After that, read the controls page for the confirmed layout and the beginner guide for survival tips.
