2026's Best Games

wave break

We’ve all spent time skating the rails, hitting the grinds and pulling off tricks, but Wave Break is different for it combines those usual skating elements with a boat. Yeah, a boat. A skateboat.

Available to purchase and download right now on Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S, Wave Break from Funktronic Labs is sold as an arcade affair in which you combine the standard skateboarding action with that of a boat game – something which is strangely hugely popular at this time, what with the release of Ships Simulator and Ship of Fools

This one certainly promises to bring a ton of fun, adding in guns, kickflips, explosions and more as you get the chance to traverse a crime-filled Miami Vice inspired world. 

Having previously released on PC via Steam and Nintendo Switch, it’s now the turn of Xbox players to get in on the Wave Break action, paying up a mere ÂŁ16.74 in order to discover access. Do that and you’ll be treated to a single player campaign, some ranked online multiplayer action, various game modes and even the opportunity to create your own stages through a park creator. 

There’s loads going on in Wave Tale, with the key features as…

  • ONLINE MULTIPLAYER: Compete to be the best flippin’ champ in online ranked matchmaking, or group up with online friends in custom game modes.
  • MULTIPLE GAME MODES: Compete for high scores in Trick Attack, battle it out in Deathmatch, or practice and refine your skills in Free Play mode.
  • PARK CREATOR: Create the park of your dreams using our advanced in-game Park Creator! Create and edit ONLINE with friends, or do it solo for super-focus.
  • CUSTOMIZATION: Unlock hundreds of custom clothing for maximum stylin’, as well as tons of decals and decorations for your boats. Upgrade stats and unlock gear as you play and earn money.
  • STREAM SAFE SOUNDTRACK: Vibe out to Wave Break’s fresh and 100% stream safe soundtrack featuring original songs from some of the best synthwave artists in the scene like Timecop1983, Kalax, and many more!

We’ll look to run review of Wave Break in the near future. If you wish to see how this skateboater gets on, you can pick up a copy from the Xbox Store for Xbox One and, optimised, for Xbox Series X|S. 

Game Description:

Wave Break is the world’s first skateBOATING game, inspired by arcade skateboarding classics. Grind, grab, kickflip and shoot your way through an explosive 80s crime-filled Miami Vice themed world. Enjoy an episodic single player campaign, ranked online multiplayer, multiple custom game modes, and an advanced park creator.

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.
