If you’re still counting down the days until GTA 6, this new open world game dropping on PC later this week might keep you busy.
Samson, developed by Liquid Swords, launches on Steam and the Epic Games Store on 8 April for $24.99.
The game takes clear inspiration from Grand Theft Auto, Driver and Sleeping Dogs, and is set in the gritty city of Tyndalston.
You play as Samson, a man drowning in debt that keeps growing by the hour. To survive, he takes on shady jobs, gets into fights and keeps moving to pay back what he owes.
Unlike GTA, there are no guns. Samson leans heavily into melee combat, with fist fights, tight alleyways and close-quarters brawls at the centre of the action.
The developer describes it as a game where “every hit is meant to break or be broken,” with the city itself shaping how you fight, move and survive.
Console versions have been confirmed but won’t arrive at launch. Developer Christofer Sundberg said the team will begin work on console ports once the PC version is out.
