The PlayStation trailer highlights the combat and platforming challenges players will face in Salt and Sacrifice, as well as a couple of boss fights and co-op play. The studio’s distinct hand-drawn style and unique foggy lighting are back in what already looks to be another compelling Soulslike adventure.
Salt and Sacrifice was revealed at the Summer Games Fest kickoff event, with a trailer that showcased some new mechanics, such as the grapple hook, which we get a closer look at in this gameplay trailer. It already looks to be creating new, complex platforming challenges while adding a level of player maneuverability that wasn’t possible in Salt and Sanctuary.
Glimpses of the game’s inventory, equipment, and crafting systems can be seen, alongside what looks to be a fast travel system involving runes.
There’s still no word on a specific release date for Salt and Sacrifice, and there is no more clarification regarding whether or not it’ll come to Xbox and Nintendo consoles. For now, Salt and Sacrifice is set for Q1 2022, launching on PC, PlayStation 4, and PS5.
