"Sun Is Forever”, the first single from the SAROS soundtrack, composed by Sam Slater and featuring Shards, is available today.
Be sure to listen out for the mysterious theme as you traverse the world of Carcosa.

Saros takes Returnal's looper shooter action and twists it into a whole new cosmic horror bullet-fest that aims to eclipse its predecessor.
From playing three hours myself, I think it's doing just that.

I played 3 hours of Saros and was really impressed
✅Spiritual successor to Returnal, but a bit more accessible
✅Activating the eclipse transforms the world, turns it more violent, creepy and challenging
✅Arjun feels more weighty and has a play style that faces threats head on via new shield ability, vs dodging everything at all times
✅New visual and audio technology creates a stunning and haunting world with gorgeous particle effects, etc.
✅new hub area where you can interact with NPCs, upgrade your character, discover lore
3 hours in, Saros is a triumph for PS5 – this twitchy sci-fi roguelike shooter perfectly evolves on Returnal, and is already a GOTY contender gamesradar.com/games/roguelik…
"With little time to go before Saros is out, I find myself anxious to return to Carcosa, where harmonies of metals, technology, and extraterrestrial melodies drone over the action Arjun orchestrates with gun in hand."
Unsurprisingly, Saros rules so far, if three hours of hands-on gameplay are any indication. More here: gameinformer.com/preview/2026/0…
