Hello, everyone! We just revealed Crimson Moon to the world in today’s State of Play! In this PS Blog post, we’re excited to share more details about this gothic action-adventure coming to PS5 in 2026.
A dark, gothic world
Crimson Moon is an action-adventure RPG set in a gothic world full of angels, demons, and ancient gods.
Players will embody the Nephilim, a human-angel hybrid serving the Order of the Crimson Moon tasked with reclaiming the cursed city of Gildenarch from the evil that infests it.
Mankind once stood on the precipice of extermination by the Infernal Legion’s charge. Born from a forbidden union between man and angel, the Nephilim emerged and rallied humanity to victory, banishing the forces of darkness from their world.
Now, you have been called upon once more to the city of Gildenarch, where a foul darkness has claimed the city. District by district and ward by ward, players must fight their way through the ancient, cursed metropolis, all the while facing down hordes of the undead, vampires, and the demonic Infernal Legion’s return.
Each cleared district pushes back the Legion’s Hellgrowth and unlocks new challenges, culminating in a winner-take-all confrontation with the sinister vampire lord, Solomon Moore, the architect of Gildenarch’s demise.
Combat soaked in blood
Parries, finishers, angelic arts, and transformations. It’s all part of a design that combines high-stakes encounters and evolving challenges, with a sense of danger and discovery. This is a world that remembers, reshapes, and pushes back, without demanding punishing repetition.
It’s a game for players like us who thrive on improvisational and expressive combat. Crimson Moon rewards experience and skill, distilling wave after wave of savage violence into fast, replayable showcases of brutal expertise as you work to slowly reclaim the city.
Missions emerge from the Sanctus Clypeus, your home base and central hub, anchored by the War Table. There, players can prepare their build, forge new armor and weapons at the Blacksmith, and chart their next incursion into Gildenarch. As the war escalates and the story
unfolds, the War Table unveils new quests and escalating threats shaped by the Infernal Legion’s advance.
The ongoing invasion by the Infernal Legion makes every run a ritual of resistance where mastery, momentum, and mythic combat collide.
Hunt alone or slay together
Players can battle alone or join forces with a friend. Co-op amplifies the intensity, with dynamic difficulty scaling and enemy composition ensuring every mission feels fresh and personal. Whether fighting side-by-side or carving your own path, the goal remains the same. Purge the darkness and reclaim the city.
“We Are Bound to the Order of the Crimson Moon.”
Angels and blood. Bone and steel. Gods and demons. Crimson Moon weaves these elements into a world where redemption is rare, and the only path forward is through the horrors that stalk Gildenarch. Each mission reinforces the weight of the Nephilim’s charge: push back the Legion, confront the Dead Gods, and restore humanity’s last stronghold.
What’s next?
The game is in final development now and will launch in late 2026. Visit our official social feeds for more information!
