Why it matters: PlayStation needs more acclaimed single-player titles, and Tides of Annihilation seems to be steering it in the right direction. Tides of AnnihilationAll the information from the developer Q&A.

The developers also revealed that players can use up to four weapons in Tides of Annihilation, ranging from fists to swords. The boss fights will be challenging especially if you choose to play on the hardest difficulty.
