Publisher 4Divinity and developer Eschatology Entertainment announced on October 16, 2026 that the Soulslike FPS Guns of Eschaton will launch on December 8, 2026 for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. The game supports Japanese in-game text. It is set in a fictional 19th-century American West where the occult, mythology, and supernatural beings mix. Players take the role of a gunslinger who has lost everything and travels across a country swallowed by an apocalyptic vortex called The Burning. Combat mixes shooting with parries and occult abilities. Limited ammunition, enemy behavior patterns, and attack timing matter. An in-game Codex lists enemy weaknesses. More than 20 weapon types appear, and revolver cylinders and bullets can be customized round by round. Builds combine firearms, talismans, armor, and three Communion Paths. A trailer appeared at the online event Galaxies Showcase. A demo is available on Steam, and the game will take part in Steam Next Fest beginning October 19. The late Viktor Antonov, known for Half-Life 2, was art director.

Eschatology Entertainment and publisher 4Divinity released a demo for Guns of Eschaton on Steam on October 5, 2026. The soulslike first-person shooter is set in a 19th-century America reworked into a post-apocalyptic Western, and it is planned for release within 2026 on PC via Steam, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S. Players take the role of a gunslinger crossing a dying frontier, working with limited ammunition and reading enemy behavior, weak points, and rituals rather than relying on fast reflexes. The demo is an independent adventure made for the demo rather than a prologue or cut segment of the campaign, and it includes enemies that do not normally appear in the corresponding location in the full release. The late art director Viktor Antonov, credited on Half-Life 2 and Dishonored, was involved with the title, and his name is listed as visual director. The demo stays playable during Steam Next Fest, which runs from October 19 to October 26, 2026.

Publisher 4Divinity and developer Eschatology Entertainment announced Guns of Eschaton on June 30, a Soulslike first-person shooter set in a post-apocalyptic 19th-century America. The game is the debut title from the Cyprus-based studio and is built on the final world concept by the late Viktor Antonov, the art director behind Half-Life 2 and Dishonored. Players take the role of a multi-armed gunslinger traveling from the West to the East Coast of a dying continent, fighting grotesque monsters with firearms, parries, and occult abilities.

The game supports solo and cooperative play, plus a PvP element where players can invade others' sessions as hostile threats. Guns of Eschaton is planned for PC via Steam, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S, with no release date or price announced yet.
