A mysterious new rumor has been making waves within the gaming group as FromSoftware’s newest undertaking has allegedly surfaced on-line. Cerulean Onslaught, a pirate-themed Soulslike that will or could not exist, has been leaked by an nameless 4chan consumer. Like several leak, it is to be taken with a grain of salt. 4chan has been the supply of reliable leaks previously, nonetheless. Bloodborne was famously leaked on the positioning earlier than its launch in 2015, so these new rumors may very well be promising.
What We Know About Cerulean Onslaught
Cerulean Onslaught is rumored to be a darkish fantasy RPG set in a naval-based open-world. Gamers will discover the huge expanse of the sport onboard a customizable ship that doubles as a house base. This appears to hyperlink again to a different leak claiming FromSoftware was engaged on a undertaking underneath the codename FMC, which was additionally stated to be primarily based on a gargantuan shipwreck.
One other submit on the GamingLeaksAndRumors subreddit by consumer The-Noob-Smoke advised that the sport wouldn’t be open-world however as a substitute happen on a large island-sized shipwreck that “crashed on high and merged with an island.” This does contradict the unique 4chan leak but in addition backs up the FMC rumors. In fact, none of this has been confirmed by FromSoftware, and even essentially the most stable of leaks typically by no means come to fruition, so we eagerly await for official affirmation.
Cerulean Onslaught’s Supposed Launch Window
Apparently, we can’t have to attend lengthy, both, as it is also rumored that Cerulean Onslaught will probably be introduced on the upcoming Summer time Video games Fest on June fifth. This epic swashbuckling journey might include a supposed launch window of August 2026, seemingly earlier than The Duskbloods and the Elden Ring: Tarnished Version launch for the Swap 2.
That is the place the leaks crumble for a lot of. An August 2026 launch window appears formidable, to say the least. However it might have been accelerated to keep away from GTA6’s rumored November launch that has had lots of the trade’s publishers scrambling. With FromSoftware at the moment engaged on two Swap 2 releases, one among which is a brand-new expertise, it appears unrealistic that they might even be crafting a large, doubtlessly open-world expertise underneath wraps on the aspect. A launch window of mere months would additionally depart little time to present the title the promoting it deserves. Elden Ring had a 260-day promoting marketing campaign which was instrumental within the sport’s worldwide success.
With no stable proof to go off of, all we will do is eagerly await a possible announcement at Summer time Recreation Fest. A Soulslike set on the seven seas sounds undoubtedly epic, particularly after the latest success of the pirate-themed survival sport Windrose. The excellent news is, with Summer time Recreation Fest quick approaching on June fifth, we do not have lengthy to attend.
