The launch of GTA 6 is just around the corner, but with an $80 price tag, some gamers may be on the lookout for a more affordable alternative. Luckily, the single-player action-adventure game, Samson, offers a similar style of gameplay at a fraction of the price, and today is its official console release.
Developed by the small, self-published team, Liquid Swords, Samson was originally released for PC in April, but received mixed reviews due to performance issues and just an overall feeling of what gamers refer to as 'jankiness'. Samson has received several major updates to fix the most pressing problems and refine many aspects of the game, and is currently on sale for 50% off.
There's a very common thread amongst all of Samson's official reviews which began circulating nearly half a year ago: the game has an intriguing premise and great potential, but definitely needed more time in development before being released.
While Samson doesn't have a massive team of developers behind it, or an astronomical budget compared with the likes of GTA 6, it's easy to see this small team has the heart it takes to keep pushing and making improvements to a game many reviewers say has great bones.

Samson: A Tyndalston story is now available on PC, XBOX, PS5, and Steam Deck, and has received yet another massive update to make the overall experience more enjoyable.
Here's a breakdown of some of the most notable improvements from the latest update:
