The premise, in the publisher's words
Trapped in a dark and gloomy temple, find your inner strength and courage to face its dangers. Show your Devotion! Dark Devotion invites you in a rich and peculiar universe. You will go through more and more confrontations. If you happen to succeed once, good job. But don’t even think that the next step will be as effortless as the previous one. Take part into rageous and bloody fights in which your opponents won't do you any favours. Be prepared to face foes that you won't forget. And remember, enemies as well as the Temple itself will want to strike you down : each and every fight is a duel to the death in which the slightest error may cost you your life.

What it launched against
Dark Devotion launched on 25 April 2019, within three weeks of Days Gone, A Plague Tale: Innocence, Anno 1800 and Katana Zero. All of them reviewed better. It arrived 6 years into the PlayStation 4's life, so it was built for hardware developers already knew well.
Released around the same time: Days Gone, A Plague Tale: Innocence, Anno 1800, Katana Zero.
