Tides of Tomorrow is launching today on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S, and the first round of reviews is in. Initial review scores for Tides of Tomorrow vary quite a bit, but at the time of writing, the game has earned a "Strong" rating on OpenCritic based on 29 critic reviews.
First announced in June 2024, Tides of Tomorrow is an asynchronous first-person multiplayer adventure game that sees players assume the role of a Tidewalker, a survivor of a cataclysmic flood who's suffering from a condition that will soon turn their flesh into plastic. While players search this watery world for a cure, they'll come across visions of how other real-world players interacted with the environment and its inhabitants. These interactions can then impact the player's experience, with mission conditions potentially being altered and NPC behavior changing based on the previous player's actions. Tides of Tomorrow has been developed by DigixArt, the studio behind games like Lost in Harmony, 11-11: Memories Retold, and Road 96.
Game Rant went hands on with Tides of Tomorrow to see how its asynchronous multiplayer lets players shape stories for those who come after.
