What Samson is
Samson is an adventure game developed by Liquid Swords and released in 2026. It is available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and PC (Microsoft Windows). It runs on Unreal Engine 5.
The premise, in the publisher's words
Samson: A Tyndalston Story is an action-adventure video game developed and published by Liquid Swords. The game was released for Windows in April 2026 and received mixed reviews from critics. It is set to release on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S in September 2026.
How it plays
It is played from a third person perspective. Its themes are action and open world. It is a single-player game with no multiplayer component. There are 46 achievements to unlock.
How it was received
Samson holds a critic score of 75 out of 100. That places it above 49% of the 7,525 rated adventure games in our database, which average 72. Games released in 2026 averaged 78, so it scored 3 points below the year average.
How long it takes, and what that costs
The main story runs about 8.5 hrs. Completing everything takes closer to 17 hrs, roughly 2 times the length of the critical path. At its current cheapest price of $11.50, that works out to about $1.35 per hour of the main story, or $0.68 per hour if you finish everything.
What you need to run it
The minimum specification calls for Intel Core i5-10505 / AMD Ryzen 5 3600, 16 GB RAM and Nvidia® 1070 GTX 8 GB / AMD Radeon™ RX 5600 6 GB. A 16GB memory requirement is demanding — worth checking before you buy, because 8GB is still common in older and budget machines. Install size is roughly 15GB. Both tiers are compared side by side on the requirements page, and you can check your own parts against them without installing anything.
What it costs, and where
The cheapest verified price right now is $11.50 at GreenManGaming, 54% below its usual price. Storefront pricing varies enormously by country: India is the cheapest region we track at ₹1,100.00 (about $11.55), while Germany pays €24.99 — 2.4 times more. In Pakistan it is priced at Rs 15 on Steam, which is about $14.99.
What it launched against
Samson launched on 8 April 2026, within three weeks of Crimson Desert Enhanced, Pragmata, Replaced and Mouse: P.I. For Hire. All of them reviewed better. It arrived 6 years into the PlayStation 5's life, so it was built for hardware developers already knew well.
Released around the same time: Crimson Desert Enhanced, Pragmata, Replaced, Mouse: P.I. For Hire.
