1-Bit Dungeon – now on Xbox

Get ready for a blast from the pixelated past – with a modern twist, as 1-Bit Dungeon comes to Xbox.

1-Bit Dungeon is a fast-paced 2D action platformer from Old School Vibes, is now available on Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S. This isn’t just a retro throwback; it’s a challenging, precision-based adventure that will test your skills and your patience.

1-Bit Dungeon embraces the minimalist aesthetic of classic 1-bit games, but don’t let the simple visuals fool you. This is a game that demands tight controls, precise timing, and a willingness to learn from your mistakes (and you will make mistakes).

Brutal Combat, Crisp Pixels

The core gameplay of 1-Bit Dungeon revolves around sword-based combat. You’ll need to dodge with precision, learn enemy attack patterns, and strike at the opportune moment to defeat a variety of monsters, ghosts, and slimes.

The game promises a “rewarding difficulty curve,” which is code for “prepare to die, a lot.” But each death is a learning experience, pushing you to master the controls and perfect your timing.

Old-School Charm, Modern Design

While the visuals are deliberately retro, 1-Bit Dungeon incorporates modern game design principles. The controls are tight and responsive, ensuring that every success (and every failure) is your own.

This isn’t a game that relies on nostalgia alone; it’s a genuinely challenging and engaging action platformer that just happens to look like it was pulled from a time capsule.

Key Features to Test Your Mettle

  • Fast-Paced 2D Action: Intense combat and demanding platforming.
  • Crisp 1-Bit Pixel Art: A minimalist aesthetic that evokes classic games.
  • Tight Controls: Precision is key to survival.
  • Rewarding Difficulty: Learn from your mistakes and master the challenge.
  • Sword-Based Combat: Dodge, parry, and strike to defeat your enemies.
  • Available on Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S.

Enter the Dungeon… If You Dare!

If you’re looking for a challenging, retro-inspired action platformer that will test your skills and your reflexes, 1-Bit Dungeon is waiting for you. It’s available now on the Xbox Store for £4.19.

Just be prepared for a brutal, but ultimately rewarding, experience.

1-Bit Dungeon Description

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.
