Update 2: It looks like Sony has finally found the right button to press. The new Returnal trailer is back and we’ve added the previous YouTube video for your viewing pleasure. What a nuisance!
Update: Ah. It looks like the video hit the internet a little earlier than expected, as it has just been extracted. We suspected it was a leak when there was no tracking information on PlayStation Blog. If and when the video returns to the web, we’ll be sure to update this article once again. Wow!
Original story: The return continues to look better and better. In this new game trailer, discovered on Vimeo instead of YouTube, we have a glimpse of a handful of enemies that Selene will defend in this third-person arcade shooter.
As always, the action looks very slippery and the hostile tentacles are elegant and creepy. We especially like the infected Scout, who sees one of Selene’s former corpses revived with a mass of tentacles shaking him forward. It’s horrible. It also takes a look at a boss’s fight against something called Ixion, which seems pretty intimidating with its projectile launch.
There are a couple of weeks left to explore the dangerous world of Atropos for ourselves. Are you excited about the return? Tell us in the comments section below.
