For those not up to speed, In Solar Ash, players will assume the role of a Voidrunner in a 3D platformer as she looks to save her home. To accomplish her goal, she’ll be traversing a world within a giant black hole full of enemies and obstacles to deal with. As you go deeper and deeper into the black hole, foes will become larger, and must be dealt with in more precise, skill-based ways. It was first revealed back in 2019.

Developer Heart Machine is the same team behind Hyper Light Drifter, the acclaimed 2D RPG released back in 2016.
