Chilling Sci-Fi Survival Horror Game “End of Abyss” Unveiled at Summer Game Fest

Ugh, where do I even start? So, there’s this thing called Summer Game Fest 2025—it happened (duh)—and these game folks, Section 9 Interactive and Epic Games, came out swinging with a new game, “End of Abyss.” Now, if you’ve heard whispers about it being all sci-fi horror with a twist of whatever makes your stomach churn, you’re on the right track. It’s like if “Inside” and “Little Nightmares” had a love child. Sounds wild, right?

Picture this: a ragtag team of devs who cut their teeth making “Little Nightmares” and other quirky favorites (maybe you remember “LittleBigPlanet PS VITA”? Eh, maybe not). So they smooshed their brains together to conjure up this creepy concoction. And during Summer Game Fest—where I swear they announce so many games my mind does that cartoon spinning thing—this particular trailer stood out. People are losing their minds over it, especially fans of body horror. Yum.

And there’s this character, Cel, a combat tech is what they called her. Honestly, sounds like she’s got her work cut out for her, digging through dilapidated areas, side-glancing those monster thingies trying to gnaw her face off—typical Wednesday, right? Nothing human in sight, which maybe is a blessing. But she’s figuring it all out with some snazzy upgradable gear. That’s like finding a fiver in old jeans.

Anyway, I got sucked into watching the trailer, and the atmosphere? It’s so thick you could cut it with a—wait—back to the point. People are buzzing, saying it’s like this mash-up of that game “Inside” but with a flashy top-down FPS twist, whatever that means. And it’s set to release in 2026 on platforms like Epic Games Store, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S. Mark your calendars—or don’t, I’m not your mom.

And hey, horror fans are in hog heaven these days—whether it’s the old “Silent Hill 2” or “Poppy Playtime,” which sounds delightful, right? Ha. Players are already drooling over stuff like “Reanimal” and “Little Nightmares 3.” So, “End of Abyss” adds another reason to sleep with the lights on. Perfect.

Anyway, that’s the rundown. If you’re curious, go wish for it on those online stores or whatever. Or you could just, you know, wait and see. I dunno, up to you.
