About Abyssus
Step into the role of a Brinehunter in either solo or co-op and traverse via submarine to the ocean floor to investigate a powerful electromagnetic source. Arriving at the source to discover an ancient, sunken city of a long-forgotten civilization, you’re thrust into the fast-paced FPS action of Abyssus as you’ll face corrupted, lethal swarms of enemies armed to the gills with powerful weapons made of ancient tech utilizing the power of brine. Stranded, the only way through is deeper down…
Blast into this chaotic underwater world to harness new weaponry, upgrades and mods to create the loadout of your dreams. Pierce through enemies using the literal power of energy with satisfying guns like the plasma launcher, one of eight customizable weapons, and choose whether you want powerful, grenade-like strikes or rapid fire, revolver-style shots. With a whopping 48 weapon mods, there’s plenty of variety to sink your fins into – no two loadouts feel the same.
No two runs are the same, either, as Abyssus was designed with a heavy focus on replayability: the game features strategic randomness with 150+ blessings to amp your abilities, increase your damage and more. Abyssus also hosts 40 equippable charms and 124 forge mods, allowing you to enhance equipped abilities and weapons.
