Prepare to face the darkness in Dark Light as it releases onto Xbox Series X|S.
Dark Light, the challenging new Soulslike action game from developer...
One of the biggest surprises in 2019 was undoubtedly Remnant: From the Ashes. Its mixture of Soulslike mechanics and The Division-esque shooting was a fantastic match. In co-op this game shone as one of the best examples of the genre, outside of From Software. Two DLCs arrived in the form of Swamps of Corsus and Subject 2923 to give players plenty more to do. There was even a lesser-known prequel Chronos: Before the Ashes that had an interesting aging mechanic each time you died.
It has a fun, finely-crafted story told through splendid animation and outstanding narration, a gorgeous, adventure-filled world with plenty to explore, and one of the greatest 2D combat systems I’ve ever experienced. Tails of Iron is not only one of the best things I’ve played all year, but it’s a sign of great things to come from an incredibly talented studio.
Stick 'Souls' in your title and you'll find two groups of players: one who will drop the asking price without a care in the world, and another who will run a mile, never looking back. Depending on your point of view and gaming skills, Eldest Souls is going to be one of those games - a marmite affair that you'll either love, or absolutely despise.
