In Polygon’s review of Tunic, we called the colorful action-adventure game “a delightful, puzzling journey” that’s both full of challenge and nostalgic game design — a journey that is enhanced by communicating and collaborating with other players.
Tunic’s release has been a long time coming. First revealed as the game Secret Legend in 2015, Tunic resurfaced in 2017 under its final name. Shouldice and Finji announced the game’s release date back in December.
Xbox Game Pass for consoles costs $9.99 per month. More information about subscription options is available at the Xbox website.
