Sword of the Sea is a captivating surfing adventure game created by Giant Squid Games. You take on the role of Wraith, who uses a special hoverboard-like sword to perform tricks inspired by snowboarding, skateboarding, and surfing. Players will glide across both water and sand waves, tackling halfpipes, ramps, and wall rides in a stunningly beautiful world. The game features a breathtaking contrast between the ocean’s life and the desolate desert landscape, all set to a soundtrack that has won a Grammy Award.
Here’s some gaming news: Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 has now won more Game of the Year awards than Elden Ring. Also, Highguard was originally planned for a surprise release before its Game Awards 2025 showcase. What did you think of Sword of the Sea winning at the Grammy Awards in 2026?
