Housemarque has finally unleashed the free Zenith update for Saros, which is a massive free update that brings a ton of new features into the game, balance updates, as well as a brand-new boss rush game mode.
After teasing the major Zenith update for Saros at a PlayStation State of Play back in September 2026, the free patch has finally arrived. Available to download completely for free, the Zenith update intends to add even more replayability into the game. The first piece of achieving that is the new Overlord Rush mode, allowing players to essentially jump into a boss rush. Scores are added to a global leaderboard, and there are three versions to participate, including the “Incursion” and “Ascension” Sets, which feature 3 Overlords, while the Totality Set will push players to take down all 8 in one go.

While Saros follows in the footsteps of Housemarque's other arcadey-style shooter games like Returnal, this Zenith update's other goal was intended to add new features that would make the game slightly more accessible to hopefully attract more players...
