Having the ability to shape the development of a game before it becomes a fully fledged title can only be a good thing for gamers and developers alike. With that in mind, the Xbox Game Preview program welcomes Pit People into its ranks for us to join the adventure.
Developed by The Behemoth – mostly known for their success with Castle Crashers and BattleBlock Theater – Pit People takes you on a turn-based adventure featuring a cast of tragic heroes on a journey across an apocalyptic wonderland. Whether you choose to be experience this journey with a friend or to go it alone is entirely your choice, as you’ll find it caters for both online and local co-op partners. Prepare for some epic questing, looting and exploring, whilst encountering some rather strange species and fighting to survive this hostile world. There’s also a bit of online PvP for up to four players to participate in.
For those wishing to get involved in Pit People, a full purchase will cost a mere £11.99 over on the Xbox Games Store. Should the thought of piling cash into an unfinished game be holding you back, there’s a free trial on offer to get a feel for it.
