The latest game from Tencent’s Eclipse Glow Games studio was unveiled today during Sony’s State of Play showcase, introducing players to an immersive, story-driven experience set in a transformed version of London.
A Modern Take on Arthurian Legend
Ever wondered what it would be like if a classic tale of knights and legends was brought into the present day, with a supernatural twist? Tides of Annihilation does exactly that, blending ancient mythology with a reimagined modern world. This single-player, narrative-driven adventure places you in the role of Gwendolyn, the sole survivor of a mysterious event known as the “Outworld Invasion.”
Gwendolyn possesses a unique power the ability to summon and command the spirits of the legendary Knights of the Round Table. As she journeys through a city consumed by chaos, she must uncover the secrets behind her origins, battle formidable foes, and determine the fate of two worlds. The game features over 30 powerful adversaries inspired by Arthurian lore, leading to intense and strategic encounters.
A World Reimagined
“Debuting Tides of Annihilation at Sony State of Play is an incredible milestone for the Eclipse Glow development team,” said lead producer Kun Fu.

A Unique Combat System and Exploration
The game introduces a “dual knight fighting system,” allowing players to strategize their battles by summoning legendary warriors. In addition to intense combat, the game invites players to explore iconic landmarks within a fractured version of London, adding depth and atmosphere to the adventure.
