Calyssa
Calyssa – now on Xbox

For anyone who loves the pure, unfiltered challenge of a tough-as-nails platformer, a new adventure has just delved its way onto the Xbox Store – and it comes in the form of Calyssa.

Running as an intense precision platformer from Magnific Studios, Calyssa is now available on Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S. This quest for a legendary treasure is available right now for the super-accessible price of just ÂŁ4.19.

A Quest for Ancient Ruins

Prepare to face deadly traps, dark creatures, and a forgotten curse in an engaging experience that will test your reflexes and skills from start to finish.

In Calyssa, you will follow the courageous explorer of the same name on her quest to find the entrance to a set of ancient ruins. According to legend, a priceless treasure lies hidden within. Your mission is to uncover the secrets of this dangerous place and survive the perilous journey to claim your prize.

This is a game built for those who love a challenge. It is a precision platformer through and through, where every jump and dash counts. You’ll need to master Calyssa’s abilities, including climbing walls and using a versatile Dash ability, to navigate the dark, trap-filled environments.

The ruins are not uninhabited. You’ll need to defeat a variety of dark creatures with your sword while simultaneously avoiding the deadly traps that litter your path. The game promises tight, responsive controls to ensure that your success is always in your hands.

Key Features

  • Challenging Precision Platforming: A tough-as-nails experience for fans of the genre.
  • A Hero’s Toolkit: Climb walls, use your Dash ability, and defeat enemies with your sword.
  • Dangerous, Trap-Filled Environments: Navigate ancient ruins filled with deadly traps and dark creatures.
  • Unique Pixel Art Visual Style: A mysterious and atmospheric world brought to life with a distinct art style.
  • Intense and Immersive Soundtrack.

A forgotten curse protects these ancient ruins, and only the most skilled explorer will survive to tell the tale. If you’re ready to test your platforming prowess, Calyssa is waiting to begin her dangerous journey on the Xbox Store right now.

There’s an Xbox Series X|S Optimised version, and another that works with Xbox One. Take your pick.

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.
