Sky Revolver – on Xbox, PC and Play Anywhere

Prepare for classic arcade action as Sky Revolver, a new vertical-scrolling shoot ’em up, has launched on Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC – with Play Anywhere to boot.

Developed and published by ChiliDog Interactive, this budget-friendly title throws you into the cockpit as the last remaining fighter pilot against a tyrannical Empire, all for just ÂŁ5.79. Plus, it supports Xbox Play Anywhere!

Your mission is critical: break through waves of enemy squadrons and destroy the command fleet to turn the tide of the war. This means mastering intense dogfights, customising your ship, and taking down colossal bosses.

Classic Shooting, Deep Customisation

Sky Revolver blends reflexes with strategy. You’ll need:

  • Masterful Manoeuvring: Evade relentless hails of enemy fire using advanced piloting techniques.
  • Deep Customisation: Salvage components from defeated foes and combine them to create unique fighter builds tailored to your playstyle.
  • Tactical Adaptation: Face diverse enemy forces, from agile scouts requiring quick reactions to heavily armoured battleships demanding focused firepower.

The action culminates in epic, multi-phase showdowns against giant enemy warships. These colossal bosses feature unique weapon systems and combat strategies, demanding you utilise all your skills and carefully planned upgrades to emerge victorious.

Remember Sky Force?

Fans of top-down, vertically scrolling shoot ’em ups on Xbox will likely have fond memories of the Sky Force series. We loved both Sky Force Anniversary (4.5/5 review) and then Sky Force Reloaded, calling it “Simply put… the best SHMUP money can buy!

Sky Revolver, with its focus on classic action, upgrades, and big bosses, looks set to scratch that same itch for arcade shooter fans.

Xbox Play Anywhere Included

Adding excellent value, Sky Revolver supports Xbox Play Anywhere. Purchase the game digitally once from the Xbox Store for ÂŁ5.79, and you automatically own it on both your Xbox console (One or Series X|S) and your Windows PC.

Your achievements and cloud saves sync seamlessly, letting you continue the fight against the Empire wherever you prefer to play.

Key Features

  • Classic Vertical Shmup Action: Blast through enemy squadrons in intense top-down combat.
  • Deep Customisation System: Create unique fighter builds from salvaged components.
  • Diverse Enemy Forces: Adapt tactics for scouts, battleships, and more.
  • Epic Multi-Phase Boss Battles: Take down colossal warships.
  • Strategic Upgrades: Blend reflexes with long-term tactical planning.

Join the Fight

Sky Revolver promises a thrilling return to classic shoot ’em up gameplay, enhanced with deep customisation and epic boss encounters.

If you’re looking for an action-packed arcade fix at a great price, it’s available right now on the Xbox Store for ÂŁ5.79.

Take control of the last fighter and save the day!

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.
