The irony isn’t lost on me that I’m posting this on an Xbox enthusiast forum but I do kinda wish the Xbox journos, leakers and insiders would reign it in just a wee bit, lol
Maybe this side-scrolling game is the one scheduled for H1 2022 Klobrille was talking about some weeks ago. Stoic output has been very regular (2014-16-18) and now they have added 1+ years due to covid and bigger project, it’s reasonable.
Escharum, for all his talk, will get dispatched early on, I’m gonna guess. Plus, Atriox’s return could well just be brief and we go up against him proper in a title update.
I think that hologram in the back is kinda all we’ll see of Atriox in the game. Too many “villains” already. Escharum, Cortana (provisionally) and now Harbinger.
XGSP doesn’t publish every Xbox game, they usually just publish exclusive games with big MS funding like Ori, Contraband, Flight Simulator and now Project Belfry.
