Candy Rangers – finally on Xbox

Candy Rangers, a brand-new, vibrant single-player experience that challenges you to control four rangers simultaneously has just blasted its way onto the Xbox Store.

A fresh and colourful twist on the classic rail shooter genre, Candy Rangers has launched today on Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One for £12.49, joining its previous release on Steam, Nintendo Switch, and PlayStation.

Prepare to race against time, take on big boss battles, and even split your team to take on two paths at once in a game that will test your multitasking skills to their absolute limit.

Meet the Candy Rangers

The stars of the show are the quadruplets: Candy, Mint, Lemon, and Plum. They live together and work as rangers to fight off the mischievous creatures that have come to ruin the natural environments of their city. Each of the four rangers has their own unique shooting style, and you’ll need to master all of them to succeed.

And whilst this should be seen as a classic on-rails shooter, it comes with a major twist. You will be in control of all four rangers at the same time, guiding them through more than 20 playable levels.

Each of the game’s stages is filled with a host of different enemies, and many of the levels feature secret, branching paths. You can even choose to split your team to take on two different paths at the same time! Your journey will also see you taking on four huge bosses, with a final, epic fight across the entire map.

More Ways to Play

Once you’ve beaten the main game, you will unlock a host of new modes to play, including:

  • Hard Mode: A tougher challenge where you’ll receive twice the time penalty for each hit you take.
  • Inky Mode: A special new mode where you can shoot in all directions.
  • Arcade Mode: A true test of your skills where you must try to beat every level without taking a break.

Another Sweet Treat from JanduSoft

Publisher JanduSoft continues its mission to bring a massive variety of unique and affordable indie titles to console players.

The colourful on-rails shooting of Candy Rangers joins a huge and diverse library that has recently included the retro arcade platformer Trasmoz Legends and the chaotic party racer Smoots Crazy Wave.

Your Ranger’s Handbook

Here’s what you can expect from this new on-rails shooter:

  • Unique 4-Character Gameplay: Control four rangers at once in a classic on-rails shooter.
  • More Than 20 Levels: With secret paths and the ability to split your team.
  • Four Big Boss Battles and a final, epic fight.
  • A Host of Unlockable Modes: Including Hard Mode, the all-directional Inky Mode, and a non-stop Arcade Mode.

The city is in peril and a team of colourful heroes is needed. If you’re a fan of classic on-rails shooters and are looking for a new, unique challenge, Candy Rangers is ready for you on the Xbox Store right now.

You’ll find it on other storefronts too.

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.
