Four Circle Interactive and Curve Digital have today confirmed the release date for their insane action platformer, 10 Second Ninja X…you’re just a matter of weeks away from absolute madness.
Arriving on Xbox One, PS4, Vita and PC come July 19th 2016, 10 Second Ninja X’s premise is super simple – destroy everything within 10 seconds in order to continue. As you can imagine though, things may not play out quite as easily, as it promises to contain a wide variety of gems. With 60 cleverly designed levels spread across six rich and varied worlds, the challenge will come from demonstrating the dexterity and reactions necessary to traverse each level.
Each stage is a puzzle and you’ll want to complete it quickly – as in very quickly – if only so you can grab the full star compliment on offer. It’ll be frustrating, it’ll be painful and failure will be solely down to your own skills but when things come together and work out perfectly, then the sheer joy you’ll receive is more than worth the big hits.
New features in the X sequel will include new mini games, a host of unlockable costumes, a ghost mode, a new hub world and all-new HD visuals. With the option to unlock remastered versions of the original levels once you’ve completed what is on offer, you’ll find a fair old amount of replayability as well.
“10 Second Ninja was our first game as a studio,” says Dan Pearce, Four Circle Interactive. “Despite turning out officially brilliant – <ahem> 90 per cent from God Is A Geek </ahem> – we learnt an awful lot, making 10 Second Ninja X the game we really wanted to make. Though we’re going to be sad when we get knocked off the test leaderboards, we’re ridiculously excited to see people shaving milliseconds off the time when the game is officially released.”
Keep your eyes peeled for more as and when we have it…you may even find that the initial $9.99 / £7.99 / price tag will be discounted at launch too!
