Play Death Kid on Xbox and Nintendo Switch
For most, death is the end, but in this indie roguelike it is only the beginning. Death Kid is leaping from Playstation and Steam to both Nintendo Switch and Xbox!
Roguelikes have always been a favorite genre of mine thanks to the fun and addicting gameplay loop these games provide. Whether it’s Enter the Gungeon, The Binding of Isaac, or Slay the Spire, the replayablility and satisfying growth in the face of difficulty has always been appealing. Especially, when a roguelike puts a new spin on the formula, like Death Kid.
While Skull Kid has you going through the normal “die and retry” style that roguelikes are known for, it throws a wrench into the equation. Your success is dependent on a group of souls, which you must keep alive to achieve your goals and proceed through the well. Fail to protect them, and you’ll find yourself right back at the beginning.
It’s a fascinating spin on the genre, and now you can get this game on two new platforms. Xbox players will now be able to purchase this game for their preferred console, while Nintendo Switch players can take Death Kid on the go! Whatever your choice, you have a lot to look forward to with this retro roguelike!
