End of Abyss Launches With Former Little Nightmares Developers Heading Deep Underground

End of Abyss Launches With Former Little Nightmares Developers Heading Deep Underground — original editorial gaming news illustration

Epic Games Publishing and Section 9 Interactive release End of Abyss today for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and PC via the Epic Games Store. The atmospheric science-fiction action adventure follows combat technician Cel into an enormous abandoned underground complex after what begins as an investigation into unexplained disturbances deteriorates in the traditional videogame manner into 'everything here would like to eat you.' Section 9 was founded by former Tarsier Studios developers, giving the project an interesting pedigree: Tarsier created Little Nightmares, and End of Abyss similarly emphasizes oppressive environments and visual storytelling rather than treating its setting as a convenient warehouse for ammunition. Players explore branching routes, scan environments, unlock tools that open previously inaccessible areas and upgrade equipment while fighting increasingly unpleasant inhabitants. The studio describes it as an action-adventure rather than straightforward horror, but mysterious derelict laboratories populated by things that are 'not fully human' rarely feature prominently in tourism brochures. October's release calendar becomes ferocious almost immediately, yet End of Abyss is one of today's more interesting new IPs precisely because it is not attached to a decades-old franchise.
