Heart Machine’s Possessor(s) Sets November 11 Launch on PS5 and PC

The Hyper Light Drifter studio’s new 2D side-scroller pairs platform‑fighter combat with open‑ended exploration under Devolver’s banner.

Overview

  • Devolver Digital and Heart Machine confirmed the release date with a new gameplay and story trailer for the full launch on November 11.
  • The game arrives on PlayStation 5 and Steam for PC, with pre-orders available now and pricing yet to be announced.
  • Players control Luca, who survives a citywide catastrophe by hosting the demon Rhem, confronting the fallout in quarantined Sanzu City and the Agradyne corporation.
  • Combat emphasizes directional-input combos, aerial juggles, and improvised weapons like a guitar or computer mouse, alongside movement abilities such as a grapple-like whip and wall run.
  • Unlike the studio’s early‑access Hyper Light Breaker, Possessor(s) is shipping as a complete release, featuring an interconnected world with upgrades and multiple paths.
