PS5 Game Godfall Extended Gameplay Video Leaks [Update]

Six seconds of footage from the PS5's only confirmed game recently emerged, and now even more has made its way online.

71 Comments

Update 2: Gearbox has confirmed the legitimacy of the video but revealed an important caveat: It's showing Godfall not on PS5, but on PC a year ago. As such, things may have well changed between then and now (let alone the game's release), and the game's developer stated a "more detailed look soon."

Update: Following the six-second clip that found its way online, what appears to be an extended teaser trailer for PS5 game Godfall has surfaced. The video shows a variety of environments and combat scenarios as the player uses a large sword to dispatch enemies. The quality of the video is not fantastic, but it does provide a bit more insight into what we might be able to expect from Godfall. Of course, the video remains unconfirmed, and it's possible the actual game will turn out much differently. But given that we still have yet to officially see a PS5 game, it's worth a watch. You can check watch the Godfall video here (via Nibel on Twitter), though the video could be pulled at any time. The original story follows.

Now Playing: PS5 Game Godfall Gameplay Footage Leaks - GS News Update

During last month's Game Awards, Gearbox Software revealed that it will publish upcoming "looter-slasher" Godfall, which is being developed by Counterplay Studios. Set for release Holiday 2020, the third-person action-RPG is the first game officially confirmed for the PlayStation 5, Sony's upcoming next-gen console--also set to arrive Holiday 2020.

A brief snippet of gameplay footage for Godfall has now leaked online. The small clip initially appeared on Reddit and appears to be taken from an internal trailer at Counterplay Games that was shown at the beginning of 2019. This could be the first six seconds of PS5 footage we've seen, or it might simply be captured from the PC version of the game. Either way, the use of flashy effects and impressive lighting certainly look the part, and it offers a hint of Godfall's presumably weighty melee combat. You can watch the footage here.

The announcement trailer shown off during The Game Awards didn't reveal much else about the upcoming next-gen title, but the developers have since let slip a few more details. Godfall takes place in a fantasy setting and sees you step into the shoes of a member of the exalted Knight's Order, who are tasked with holding back the apocalypse. You can play the game solo or team up with groups of up to three players and battle across the realms of Earth, Water, Air, Fire, and Spirit, slashing through enemy combatants and gathering loot to create a formidable warrior.

Shiny Dark Souls 3 with insane particle effects is all I can draw from here. Please don't consider this *itching, DS3 is a good game.

Kind of funny how people come to a conclusion from a 6 second leak. Looking forward to see gameplay. If back n slash gameplay looks fun, I'll check it out on PC or PS5.

This seems Counterplay Games very first own game,right?

Their site states their members worked before on various games before (copy/paste from their site:Ratchet & Clank series, God of War, Destiny 2, Horizon Zero Dawn, Diablo III, Gears 5, Star Wars Battlefront, Titanfall 2, Left 4 Dead 2, Evolve, Halo 5, Battlefield 3, Bioshock Infinite, Call of Duty, Injustice 2 and Overwatch) so the experience is there...

Good luck with their first release

Feels a bit like 3D Diablo 3. Hopefully the loot system and endgame is decent enough for us to play for a while.

I hate it already? It just reminds me of Destiny 2 and Anthem... two games that generally shitbombed. Don't judge a book by its cover, yeah yeah, but at this point I don't think it's a positive to be reminded of those two games when I look at a new game coming out.

@jinzo9988: Just because the visuals make you think about those games doesn't mean that all the game design mistakes and Ubisoft-like antics will also follow...

@jinzo9988: In terms of art direction this looks atrocious. What's the point of these Destiny art styles where it looks like everyone is cosplaying? It gives a soulless feel that makes me question other parts of the game before I even try it.

This feels like one of those launch filler games and the dev is trying to build hype by being the only known PS5 game to market.

Smells like a controlled leak to me... just some clever marketing. Why would a real leaker just release 6 s?

@Sushiglutton: There haven't been actual leaks in over a decade, EVERY "leak" is a controlled marketing ploy. When people see "leak" they are more inclined to click on the site to see it. It's like Gamestop and a ton of other sites that constantly refresh "articles" saying "NEW PS5 / XBO Series X" info.... and all it is is the same crap info with nothing new.

It's all about the clicks these days...

I find it very interesting that everybody seems to only be hung up on graphics alone.

Pretty sure next gen consoles will have more benefits beyond just graphical advancements, but it's good to know what people seem to be prioritizing, (especially when so many claim that graphics aren't everything).

@aross2004: There's nothing more to judge at present though, 4-5 seconds of gameplay and one pre-rendered CGI cut-scene is all we can go on.

Perhaps you know something we don't though?

@gotrekfabian: It's not what people are saying, it's more what they're not saying. Admittedly, there isn't much to ascertain about the game at this point, but most comments are geared towards the graphics and not much interest in anything else.

Some details have already been released about the game. I expected more people to be interested in the story, how deep the loot system is, is combat maybe more Daksiders or Soulslike, (or God forbid Anthem), what are some specifics on how MP works, etc.

Very impressive graphically but I think I'll wait for a price drop. 😋

So the big thing with PS5 is ray tracing lightening?

Games looks like Dark Souls? Not even trying next generation gaming?

Seeing nextgen graphics used to be exciting back in the days when I couldn't afford having a contemporary video card all the time and back in the beginning of the HD days. I think the most exciting things to come out of nextgen consoles will be the other ancillary tech improvements with regards to streaming and whatnot. Graphics are becoming less important especially since TV's are all 16:9 and the current push in the PC market is all about catering to ultra wide and triple screen gaming. Many people are still running 1080p's which current pro consoles can run 60fps no problem. No one really cares that something might look a little better in 1080p or 2k, and 4k is pointless unless you have a 65+ inch screen. I wonder if ultra wide gaming TV's with wider aspect ratios are going to be a thing in the next few years to make console graphics relevant again.

Not trashing consoles, just saying that graphics are pretty much on the bottom of the priority list when it comes to shopping for one these days. The emphasis lately has been more on convenience.

@ecs33: I think there are multiple reasons for which people buy consoles, and graphics is definitely one of them if you take pricing into consideration.

Having games that look like Horizon, Red Dead Redemption, Uncharted on a $400 device is an incredible achievement in my opinion.

Not to bash PCs, but I don't expect a $400 PC even to play me the latest games, let alone give me the graphical detail that the consoles do.

Even if the art direction's bust, one would expect there to be good graphics. 🤔

I'm always up for a new looter game. I hope it's like Diablo just in the 3rd person. Although "so far" from the clip it doesn't look any better then a current gen game.
