End of Abyss Guides: Platforms, Story & Start

End of Abyss is an atmospheric sci-fi action-adventure from Section 9 Interactive, published by Epic Games Publishing. It launched on 1 October 2026 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series and PC via Epic Games Store. You play as Cel, and the game is built around exploration and tense combat rather than a live-service loop.

Release and platforms

The PC version is distributed through Epic Games Store. The research pass did not find a Steam listing, so do not wait for a Steam page that has not been announced.

What kind of game it is

Gematsu describes End of Abyss as an atmospheric action-adventure with sci-fi framing, exploration and tense combat. Our taxonomy also files it under action and survival, with single-player and story-rich tags. That combination points to a deliberate, atmosphere-led game rather than an arcade-style one.

The research pack does not document crafting, hunger, base building or other specific survival mechanics, so this hub does not claim them. Treat "survival" as a category cue, not a feature list.

Cel and the story

Cel is the player character. Beyond that, the pack does not document the plot, supporting cast or ending, and this page is deliberately spoiler-light. The story-rich tag and the exploration framing suggest that the environment and pacing carry as much weight as the combat encounters.

If you want a spoiler-free first run, avoid story wikis and ending guides until you have played the opening hours. The game is single-player, so there is no lobby or teammates to keep up with.

Where to play and what to verify

On PC, use the Epic Games Store product page for End of Abyss. On console, use the PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series storefront. The research pack does not document pricing, so check the current listing on your platform before you commit; prices and regional availability can change.

The research pack did not confirm an official Chinese title, a Steam release, a difficulty setting, a save system or a campaign length. Those are reasonable things to check on the store page before you commit, but they are not facts this hub can assert.

The getting-started page covers platform choice, the first-hours mindset, and a spoiler-light plan for exploration and combat.
