It’s the game that concludes the original story, letting the team at Elden Pixels crack on with the next chapter in their development history, and today we see Alwa’s Awakening finally come to Xbox One.

Previously available pretty much everywhere and on every format – well, at least PS4, Nintendo Switch, and as a fan-made NES edition – Alwa’s Awakening is now on Xbox One, with a £8.39 price point thrusting you straight into an 8-bit adventure that will have you reminiscing about the good old days with every movement.

Coming from the team at Elden Pixels, Alwa’s Awakening originally started out life as a new NES title, before seeing the draw of modern consoles take hold. This Xbox One edition is the last in the line of current gen releases and will see you attempting to work your way through a huge Metroidvania-styled world with just a magic staff for company.

Thankfully magic staffs turn out to be pretty handy and as you try to free the land of Alwa will be found solving puzzles, fighting enemies and taking down huge bosses. With stunning retro pixel art, a chiptune soundtrack pushing things on, and enough charm to make you think you were actually back in the golden age, Alwa’s Awakening is certainly one you should be considering.

Feature include:

  • – A challenging adventure platform game
  • – Use the magic staff to solve puzzles and defeat enemies
  • – Find and unlock upgrades to your items and abilities
  • – Explore a large interconnected world in true ‘Metroidvania’ style
  • – Listen to a catchy 8-bit soundtrack with over 25 original tracks
  • – All-new Assist Mode – Turn off/on item locations on map and enable instant respawn

Our full review of Alwa’s Awakening on Xbox One will be coming your way soon, but in the meantime if you wish to get in on the action should make your way to the Xbox Store in order to initiate a download.

Game Description:

Use your magic staff and progress through a large interconnected world where you’ll solve puzzles, fight enemies and defeat bosses in order to help free the land of Alwa. Explore and uncover the secrets by using your platforming skills in this challenging and charming 8-bit adventure game. Alwa’s Awakening is a game that tries to stay as close as possible to the authentic 8-bit look with sweet pixel art, a soundtrack filled with catchy chiptunes and so much charm it’ll bring you right back to the golden age of video games. With easy to understand controls the game is easy to learn but tough to master, just like how games were in the old days!

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.
