It’s always fun to see a title take a twist on a tried and trusted gameplay staple, and DAMON and BABY looks to be exactly that.
The upcoming Arc System Works effort – due out on both the PS5 and PS4 in early 2026 – takes the twin-stick shooter concept in an unexpected direction, fusing outright action with adventuring and exploration.
Here’s the overview from the press release:
“Experience a new type of action advent, featuring a fusion between exploration within an expansive world and highly technical twin-stick shooting. At your home base, power up the demon king Damon and make purchases. During the exploration phase, defeat enemies to complete each area. The story progresses as you alternate between the two phases.”

We weren’t overly interested in this one when it was first announced, but seeing more of it in this trailer has increased our anticipation. Is this on your radar at all?

I can't believe they got Matt Damon for this.
(Jokes aside, this actually looks pretty fun.)
This game seems weird.
1 of the 2 genuinely interesting things from the entire show.
@Enuo lol I was thinking as they put the trailer in a movie style to use Matt Damon for the voice over
Yes. Very much yes.
Actually looks pretty interesting! Will keep an eye on this one.
