It’s been a long time coming, but we finally have a Lost Soul Aside release date. After nearly a decade of development, the action RPG has been officially confirmed for a 2025 launch. Yeah, we’re still waiting for that drop, but with how far along the game looks in recent trailers, we can safely assume it’s not much longer now.

After years of anticipation, the wait is finally over. The official release date has been pushed back to August 29 after initially being set to May 30, 2025.
Originally a solo project by Chinese developer Yang Bing, Lost Soul Aside first turned heads in 2016 with its awesome visuals, and combat style, first seen in games like Final Fantasy. Fast forward to now, the game has grown under the wing of Sony’s China Hero Project, transforming into a AAA-looking title, with major hype behind it.

If you’ve been following this game since the early demo days, you know how wild this journey has been. But for newcomers? Here’s what all the buzz is about.
So, what’s the deal with Lost Soul Aside? Think of it as a blend of high-speed sword combat, futuristic visuals, and just enough anime vibes to make it one of the best upcoming games of 2025.
You play as Kazer, a lone warrior who’s somehow bonded with a mysterious, dragon-like companion, named Arena. The story itself is still a bit of a secret, but if the trailers are a reflection, you can expect flashy boss fights, and that classic “chosen one with a mysterious past” energy.

Combat-wise, Lost Soul Aside seems similar to games like Final Fantasy and Devil May Cry. It’s fast, fluid, and completely style-focused: mid-air combos, teleportation attacks, ‘summoning’ weapons, and cinematic finishers. It looks sick, honestly.
When it launches, Lost Soul Aside will be coming to PlayStation 5 and PC, via Steam and Epic. While there’s no official word on releases for other platforms like Xbox, the current focus ensures that both console and PC gamers can dive into Kaser’s adventure simultaneously.
Honestly? From what we’ve seen so far – yeah, it might just be. The combat looks smooth, the art is on point, and the fact that this started as a one-man project is still kind of mind-blowing to me. It’s not easy to earn your spot among the best RPG games these days, but Lost Soul Aside surely is making waves.
If you’re into fast-paced swordplay, sleek anime aesthetics, or just want something new that feels like a love letter to everything cool about the PS2/PS3 action era – this one’s probably already on your radar. And if it’s not? Here’s the official launch trailer to fix that:
