Devolver Digital and Rene Rother have set a date for when we can expect the third-person puzzle/shooter.

The game was announced less than a month and a half ago, so they’re in no rush to reveal Children of the Sun. Burning with rage, the girl wages a one-woman war against the cult, taking them down cultist by cultist, bullet by bullet, until she reaches her true target: the leader. Along the way, she will uncover the dark truth about this mysterious order and the atrocities they have committed in the name of their master. In this tactical third-person puzzle shooter, you take control of a bullet and guide it through increasingly complex and challenging levels to kill cultists, trigger traps, and reshape the environment. Every shot counts, and ruthless precision is rewarded. Taking down the cult is deeply satisfying; doing it with style is even more so.

Tactical sniping, puzzle solving, and light stealth collide in Children of the Sun to create a third-person shooter like no other. You have only a single bullet to complete each level, but you can re-aim on impact, bend around obstacles, accelerate to break through armor, and more to make that one crucial shot really count. Immerse yourself in a dark, twisted tale of revenge as you hunt down the nefarious cult. Children of the Sun combines its unique one-bullet action with a gripping, mysterious storyline that unfolds as you exact revenge on the people who made your life hell and relentlessly pursue the enigmatic leader.

Children of the Sun is deadly replayable by design. There are multiple solutions to each level, encouraging creativity and experimentation, with a satisfying scoring system that rewards accuracy and efficiency. Then check out the online leaderboards to see how you stack up against your friends and the rest of the world.

Children of the Sun will be available for PC (Steam) on April 9th. When Devolver announced it, they only said 2024, so some time passed between the reveal and the release date. Still PC only.
