Could Returnal be preparing for a return of its own? That’s certainly what fans are hoping, as Housemarque began teasing… something today. It all began earlier this morning with the following tweet, which immediately got PlayStation owners debating and theorizing.

Even dedicated Returnal fans haven’t been able to pinpoint exactly where this image originates from, raising the possibility it’s a hint for something new. The “Atropos?” caption is also open to interpretation. Has the world Returnal is set on changed in some way? Or could we be going to a new location? Returnal narrative designer Eevi Korhonen then added fuel to the fire, saying they’d just filmed something “really amazing.”
We filmed something really amazing today. Hope we get to share more soon! https://t.co/BQVsCGMKFN

So, what could Housemarque be teasing? They have hinted in the past they’re working on DLC, so maybe it’s that. Or maybe it’s some sort of video or other ancillary content. With The Game Awards 2021 coming up next month, many are hoping we’ll find out then. Still haven’t given Returnal a try? Wccftech’s Kai Powell certainly praised the experience in his full review…
Returnal is available now on PS5.
