Greetings. I’m Beomjun Lee, the project lead of The First Descendant. The long wait is finally over. The First Descendant’s Crossplay Open Beta will be available to PlayStation players from September 19 to September 25.
The First Descendant is a next-generation third-person looter shooter featuring high-quality graphics developed using Unreal Engine 5. As various attractive characters, the Descendants, players will defend humanity from alien invaders. Dynamic combat against the invaders can be experienced in environments with stunning visuals using various skills, guns, and freedom of movement. After the Beta last year, our Dev team made sure to improve every aspect of the game, and you will now be able to find those improvements on PlayStation 4 and 5.
Today, I would like to introduce you to exclusive features that can only be experienced on PlayStation 5.
First, The First Descendant’s PlayStation 5 version supports 4K resolution and offers an in-game performance and fidelity mode.
You’ll enjoy stunning visuals in 4K resolution through the fidelity mode. With HDR support, you’ll encounter high-quality graphics of charming and unique characters, various cosmetic elements, and colorful worlds in 4K resolution.
Through the performance mode of up to 60 FPS, enabling smooth gameplay, you’ll experience splendid, fast-paced combat in The First Descendant. Additionally, as we’ll support Variable Refresh Rate (VRR), you can play in a stable gameplay environment without limits to the frames.
The adaptive trigger is one of the innovations the DualSense wireless controller brought.
In The First Descendant, each weapon class serves a different purpose, and we reflected the characteristics of each weapon in the adaptive triggers. To make every weapon class feel unique, we set different pressure and intensity values for each of our 11 weapon classes, depending on their usage.
For instance, a light handgun’s adaptive triggers will be lighter than a heavy launcher or a sniper rifle with heavier trigger pressures, each providing a unique experience. Through the adaptive triggers, our Dev team created a much more immersive experience when using weapons.
The haptic feedback is another innovative feature of the DualSense wireless controller.
In addition to the vibrations, it has been designed so that the haptic feedback would work in tandem with your character controls and the environment. Bringing the game to life, the haptic feedback can be found throughout the game, such as the direction a boss appears and walks towards, the direction in which you’re attacked when you use a gun, and more.
Furthermore, when using the grappling hook, the key to the speed and dynamic controls of the game, the haptic feedback

Welcome to a new week of blink 'n' you'll miss 'em bargains. Those of you who are subscribed to our IGN weekly deals email would have noticed a $679.15 PS5 console up for sale at about 9 o'clock. In the time it took for me to translate that email to this article format, and have a coffee — boom — sold out. Just another compelling reason to click that subscribe button. Or for me to drink less coffee...
The First Descendant is busy ramping up hype for its open beta — which is dropping on the 19th September — and so we're being treated to a new 4K gameplay trailer.

The Walking Dead: Betrayal is a third-person survival-and-murder sim in which a group of eight people must work together to survive a zombie outbreak somewhere in rural Canada. It sounds, and looks, a lot like the outstanding 2019 survival-deception game Project Winter—which makes sense, it's being developed by the same studio—but with one intriguing twist: Roaming hordes of zombies means there's not always time to think about your next move.
Interdimensional aliens have invaded with murderous intent. Humans are an endangered species. Our world is in ruins. That’s the setup in The First Descendant’s newest trailer, and yet, all I want to do is zip around with grappling hooks while wearing the most fashionable cyber-bunny exosuit available. Thankfully the Gamescom trailer has that on display, too. Ta!
