"Tides of Annihilation" gives me the same excitement I used to feel playing classic God of War and Devil May Cry. And then the boss fights take it somewhere completely unexpected. Watching a game push action this far is honestly thrilling—and slightly terrifying as a developer! #TidesofAnnihilation# #gamescom2026#

Tides of Annihilation has shown a new look for its main character, Gwendolyn, Jennifer English is no longer voicing her. Jennifer English, known for playing Shadowheart and Maelle, stepped away from the role to focus on her physical and mental health. Jennifer worked with the devs to help find a new actress for Gwendolyn and will still support the game as an advisor.

Tides will rise and fall, be the unwavering force that refuses to wash away. 🌊 Coast undefeated as Captain America's Seaside Sentinel, Loki's Seaside Siren, and White Fox's Coastal Kumiho costumes! July 2 at 9 AM - July 31 at 2 AM UTC!

Tides of Annihilation devs say they’ve been working directly with NVIDIA and Epic Games to fix heavy frame drops during the game’s huge “Giant Knight” battles ahead of the summer demo. The team explained that the game struggles to handle massive enemies, detailed environments, and intense combat effects simultaneously in Unreal Engine 5. Earlier gameplay clips worried many players about optimization and performance. NVIDIA is helping with DLSS and GPU optimization, while Epic engineers assisted with improving animation and gameplay systems. The devs are trying to keep visuals intact while boosting performance. Producer Kun Fu previously described the world: “Our game world reimagines London as a sprawling battleground where modern ruins coexist with echoes of a medieval past.” A public demo is expected later this summer, so players can see the performance improvements.

King tides and strong winds are bringing flooding and powerful waves to communities on both coasts. Streets were swamped in South Florida, while record-breaking waves battered homes in Southern California. Meteorologist @RobMarciano is tracking the forecast.

Roll Tide and full throttle! An incredible day in Tuscaloosa with @SecRollins, from signing a new agreement between @NASA and @USDA and meeting with students at @UofAlabama to flying over a packed Bryant-Denny Stadium ahead of Alabama vs. Texas A&M. The same spirit that takes us into the skies will take us back to the Moon and inspire the next generation to take us even farther.
