Ultimate Games have got their many fingers in a whole load of pies, with recent announcements covering the likes of Ultimate Summer, and more. Today though they are announcing that Together is coming to Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S – a cooperative platformer.
Due to arrive on Nintendo Switch come 16th June 2021, with plans to launch on PC through Steam and PlayStation too, it’s the Xbox One and Series X|S edition of Together that has us excited.
Together is being developed by the Polish studio The Dust. It will be published on Nintendo Switch and other consoles by Ultimate Games S.A.
Together is a 2D cooperative platformer. The game offers both a single player mode and a local co-op mode for two players and the creators behind it are promising to deliver a very diverse world which has been stripped of its colours by the evil Mona Chrome. The player’s goal is to transform each level and fill the world with colours again.
“As the name suggests, Together focuses on cooperation. During the game, two players are connected by a rope and achieving the goals requires constant and skilful cooperation. The rope also helps during combat and while the characters may get disconnected, it cannot last longer than 5 seconds” – said Jakub Wolff, CEO at The Dust S.A.
Apart from the main theme of colouring the bleak world and the rope mechanics, the developers have also focused on, among others things, caricatured characters with unique skills and a large dose of light humour.
“Together is a title that works best when you cooperate with others – either with friends and family. Four different difficulty levels allow you to adjust the game to your current needs, so the gameplay may be relatively undemanding or pose a considerable challenge” – indicated Rafał Jelonek, COO at Ultimate Games S.A.
Together features include:
- a 2D platformer brimming with colours;
- unique rope mechanics;
- more than 20 varied levels;
- dynamic cooperation;
- 12 different characters.
We’ll let you know as soon as Ultimate Games confirm the release date for Together on Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S. In the meantime, consider giving it a hit on Nintendo Switch come that 16th June release.
