Welcome back to Gotta Game For You — we’re continuing our Summer Game Fest 2025 coverage with Episode 19: Part Six, a special spotlight on upcoming titles from Epic Games Publishing.

Epic might be best known for Fortnite, but this episode proves their publishing lineup is doing some really interesting things. Meghan (‪@Strawburry17‬) and Shelby (‪@Shubble‬) step into three very different games — End of Abyss, End of Abyss, and Out of Words — each with a distinct tone, scale, and emotional core.

In End of Abyss, we descended into a forgotten underground facility where the deeper you go, the more hostile everything feels. With strong atmospheric influences and a constant sense of tension, this one stuck with us long after the demo ended. The team at Section 9 Interactive walked us through the world and the ideas behind its eerie design.

Next we explored the hostile alien world of Infinitesimal, where everything is bigger, deadlier, and absolutely not built for someone your size. Playing alongside the dev team gave us a deeper look at how scale, survival, and discovery shape every moment.

We wrap things up with Out of Words, a quiet, emotional co-op experience about connection without dialogue. Built entirely by hand with stop-motion characters and clay environments, it’s a game that communicates through movement, trust, and timing — and playing it alongside the developers made its intention and care really shine.

We’re almost at the end of our Summer Game Fest series with just one more episode to go. Next up, we dive into our Xbox coverage with Invincible, Grounded 2, and Keeper, plus an exclusive interview with Lee Petty.
