Although The Pathless will release on the 12th of November, along with PlayStation 5, it will not be a PlayStation exclusive. The game will be available on iOS, PC, and PlayStation 4 as well. Matt Nava, the Creative Director at Giant Squid, says,

“I’m excited to announce that you will be able to play The Pathless on your new PlayStation 5 the minute you get your hands on it. That’s right, The Pathless will be available on November 12 as a PlayStation 5 launch title! You’ll be able to enjoy the game’s gorgeous open world and fast, fluid movement in 60 fps on PS5 while also feeling the force of every arrow shot with the DualSense controller’s haptic trigger effects.”

The Pathless adds to the exciting PlayStation 5 roster

The state-of-the-art hardware of the PlayStation 5 will provide players with an immersive gaming experience, along with no loading screens and high frame rates even at high resolutions. These factors will play in favor of this upcoming title from Giant Squid.

The game follows the story of Hunter, a highly skilled archer who aims to free the world of the suffocating darkness.

Matt Nava says this about the gameplay,

“Here at Giant Squid, we’ve been busy the last few months putting the finishing touches on the world of The Pathless. Every corner of the huge open world is handcrafted to provide a truly rewarding exploratory experience. Players will want to leave no stone unturned, as every nook and cranny holds a secret, be it long-forgotten lore or an arcane puzzle to solve.”

The Pathless becomes the latest addition to the roster of games releasing with the next-gen consoles like Spider-Man: Miles Morales, Cyberpunk 2077, Godfall, and others.
