Returnal description

In Returnal, Selene crash-lands on Atropos, a shifting world marked by the remains of an ancient civilization. She searches its barren terrain for a way to escape while fighting to survive. Each time she dies, her journey restarts, sending her back into the hostile landscape.

Selene’s search also involves piecing together fragments of her memories as she seeks answers. The planet’s terrain is constantly evolving and decaying, and exploring it helps her form a personal connection with the world.

Gameplay and features

Changing cycles and equipment: Atropos changes from one cycle to the next, as do the items available to Selene. Each loop brings new item combinations, and scavenged alien technology can provide upgrades that enhance her abilities in future cycles.
Bullet-hell combat: Fight ruthless enemies in explosive, bullet-hell-fuelled encounters. The combat is a central part of Selene’s effort to survive on Atropos.
Tower of Sisyphus: After unlocking the Icarian Grapnel, Selene can enter the Tower of Sisyphus. Its nearly endless ascending gauntlet focuses on combat and score-building, with progress, exclusive items, Scout logs and story fragments to find.
