This gameplay deep dive shows more of what awaits Ariane and Thomas on Persephone: anomalies, dangers surfacing during the planet’s exploration, an unknown facility full of questions (and blood), and more tense encounters with the Nemesis.

Aphelion is a sci-fi action-adventure on the edge of the solar system. In the shoes of ESA astronauts Ariane and Thomas, players will explore and survey the uncharted planet Persephone, and solve the mystery of the crash, all while trying to survive in the terrifying presence of a hostile and unknown lifeform.

Aphelion will release soon in Spring 2026 on PC (Steam), Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. It will be an Xbox Play Anywhere title, and available day one on Game Pass. Players can already pre-order the retail edition for PlayStation 5 here.
