Phantom Abyss will soon whip into Xbox Game Preview and Xbox Game Pass
Devolver Digital and developer Team WIBY, a local group from Brisbane, have announced that Phantom Abyss, which is currently in early access on PC, will soon hit Game Preview on Xbox, as well as coming to Xbox Game Pass.
Beginning on October 20th, intrepid Xbox players will join the hunt for glory, dodging scores of hidden traps, leaping treacherous chasms, and fleeing relentless guardians through branching paths until one of the relics are claimed or the devices of death overwhelm them.
While the game is coming as part of Game Preview, the developers released their PC roadmap earlier in the year, which calls for the full 1.0 release there, so its possible a Xbox release is not far behind.
I myself have been playing the game since last year and enjoying it immensely, because each run can last as little as a few minutes, or as long as an hour, depending on how complex the temple is.
With the upcoming console release, players there will also get a few new modes:
- Adventure mode: Conquer temples to claim powerful relics and earn explorer reputation.
- Classic mode: A classic rogue-like experience. Delve into a large and progressively difficult temple.
- Daily mode: The same temple is available to all players for 24 hours. Unlike other modes, players can retry this temple as many times as they like.
