Gameplay
Samson: A Tyndalston Story is a third-person action-adventure video game. In the game, the player assumes control of Samson McCray, who must complete jobs for an underground syndicate to pay off his debt. As players explore the city of Tyndalston and complete missions, they will earn experience points, which can be used to upgrade Samson's skills and abilities. Failure to repay a certain amount of debt each day will result in the player character being pursued by debt collectors the following day. Samson is primarily a brawler game. The player can utilize both light and heavy attacks to defeat enemies. He can also use the environment to his advantage and parry hostile attacks. ==Production==
Production
The game was developed by Swedish studio Liquid Swords. The game was originally developed as an action role-playing game. However, Liquid Swords faced development troubles in 2025, and the studio laid off about half of the team. As a result, the game had to be restructured, and ranged combat was removed. The game was released on April 8, 2026, for Windows PC. Ports to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S are set to release in September 2026. ==Reception==
