Prison of Husks Is Coming to PS5
Publisher and developer Glass Head Dolls, alongside publisher WINGS, announced on June 6, 2026, that the action RPG Prison of Husks will launch for PlayStation 5.
This new console version will debut alongside the previously confirmed PC release via Steam.
To coincide with the announcement at the Future Games Show Summer Showcase 2026, a playable demo has been made available for interested players.
Prison of Husks is a nostalgic Soulslike experience set within a painted afterlife known as the Lithos Plateau.
Players assume the role of a doll who must navigate a crumbling, desolate landscape to find a lost partner.
The gameplay emphasizes active combat mechanics where successful parries allow players to regain stamina and maintain a fast pace against enemies.
Combat options are varied, allowing for the use of both melee parries and long-range pistols to overcome adversity.
The world design features dense, interconnected levels inspired by early entries in the genre, filled with shortcuts and hidden secrets.
Progression involves challenging powerful bosses that hoard pigment and choosing the order in which to face these threats.
Players can customize their character builds using various Rings and Brooches to optimize their specific playstyle throughout the journey.
