Overdrive Blaster
Overdrive Blaster – now on Xbox

Ready to shoot ’em up? Overdrive Blaster fires shots onto Xbox.

Available right now on Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S (with a fully optimised version if you want it) is Overdrive Blaster. It comes from the Xeneder Team as they provide players with an uber-colourful shoot ’em up. And it comes with a bit of a twist. 

Priced at ÂŁ4.19, in Overdrive Blaster you’ll get to gather up your blasters and take down any foe that may come towards you. And as you do, you’ll also want to collect a variety of coloured spheres, upgrading weapons as you pocket three of the same. 

Shoot ’em up!

The overall goal, aside from to stay alive, is to upgrade all three colours found in Overdrive Blaster – only then will you be seen as a galactic champion, ruler of all worlds. 

Overdrive Blaster is certainly retro in design and template, but that doesn’t mean it’s not also modern in touches. The biggest of those is the fact that Overdrive Blaster lands on the Xbox Store in two different forms.

We’ve got the standard edition of the game that allows play on both Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S. But then there’s also the Xbox Series X|S only, optimised edition – the one you should probably be looking to grab if you’re Series X|S suited. 

Let us know in the comments which version you pick up. 

Overdrive Blaster Description

In this retro-style arcade game, you have to shoot the monsters to gather colored spheres! Get three of the same color in a row to get a weapon upgrade! Upgrade all three colors to win!

An Xbox gamer since 2002, I bought the big black box just to play Oddworld: Munch's Oddysee. I have since loved every second of the 360's life and am now just as obsessed with the Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S - mostly with the brilliant indie scene that has come to the fore. Gamertag is neil363, feel free to add me to your list.
