Are you looking to go in search of multiple riches? Undermine is coming to Xbox One, PC and Xbox Game Pass, with an August release date confirmed.
Coming from those at Thorium Entertainment, UnderMine is a new action-adventure roguelike that is positively brimming with secrets. Currently sitting in Steam Early Access, come August 6th 2020 we’ll find the game digging its way to Xbox One, PC and Xbox Game Pass, with version 1.0.
Having been enjoyed by nearly 120,000 players during its Early Access stint, Undermine will hit Xbox Game Pass on launch day, allowing players across both PC and Xbox One the opportunity to indulge themselves in a host of new content and improvements.
Version 1.0 of Undermine introduces a new final boss encounter with a cinematic ending, post-credits story content, additional scenarios, plus new items, enemies, challenges, and, of course, secrets. The full game will arrive after nearly a year in Early Access, a time in which it has gathered up five major content updates that added new levels, bosses, the “Othermine” true roguelike mode, and more.
In Undermine you’ll be given the chance to grab a pickaxe and delve into a mysterious mine where danger and riches await. From there it’ll be a case of exploring a hostile environment deep within the earth as a lowly peasant seeking freedom and fortune. Only be pressing further into the cavernous depths will success or failure be found – usually the latter as that worker meets an untimely end and then send in the next poor sod, who will pick up their predecessor’s gear and hope a better fate.
It’ll be up to you to make the best of each peasant’s lot in life, using whatever’s on hand to aid in their subterranean travels and discover powerful relics, potions, gold, and more that someone, someday, might use to forge the perfect run. Along the way, miners will be forced to make tough decisions about whether to pinch pennies or spend their savings, going all-in to purchase a key item or upgrade. You’ll find the chance to blow up walls and rocks to uncover hidden passages, loot a ton of treasure, and discover new allies buried within the mine while fending off the creatures that call its tunnels home. And then, at the end of each level, you’ll find yourself squaring off with massive, room-filling bosses that require strategy and skill to slay.
“We’re almost there!” said Derek Johnson, Founder, Thorium Entertainment. “We’ve spent years toiling away in the mines and we’re finally nearing the end of this run. Whether you’ve been with us the whole way or are just joining this journey, we look forward to showing you what lies at the end of the tunnel when UnderMine hits Xbox One, PC, and Game Pass this August.”
Set that August 6th 2020 release date in your calendar and prepare for the launch of Undermine on Xbox One, PC and Xbox Game Pass. We will of course remind you when that time comes.
