Dread Delusion Lost in Cult Open-World RPG for PlayStation 5

Dread Delusion is an open-world RPG for the PlayStation 5 that puts player choice at its heart. The central quest spans the world and asks you to decide the fate of the land, but how you get there is largely up to you. Build your character to face challenges your way, and lean on the game's promise that there's always an alternative to combat. Charm the people you meet, pick locks to find another route, or harness forbidden knowledge to bend a situation in your favor. It's a game built for players who like RPGs that reward creativity over brute force.

Underneath the exploration sits a set of familiar but satisfying systems. Smithing and Alchemy let you upgrade equipment, transforming a rusty blade into something like a Master Crafted Clockwork Sword. A range of spells and potions gives you tools to bend reality to your will, while various Factions pursue their own goals that you can support or resist. The whole package is wrapped in a beautiful retro 3D aesthetic that openly channels the classic RPGs of the 2000s. With English voice and text, the story and its unique characters, creatures, and treasures remain accessible throughout.
