Gorogoa, I Hate Running Backwards, State of Decay 2, more added to Xbox Store

An artistic puzzler, a voxelated shooter, and a post-apocalyptic survival game highlight today’s additions to the Xbox Games Store…

After making its debut on the PC, Switch, and mobile devices late last year, Jason Roberts has brought his visually-striking puzzle game, Gorogoa, to the Xbox One. It’ll be added to Microsoft’s digital storefront alongside Devolver Digital’s crossover shooter, I Hate Running Backwards, and the Standard Edition of Undead Labs’s zombie survival simulation, State of Decay 2.

You can learn more about all of these games, and the rest of today’s additions to the Xbox Games Store, after the break.


Now Available on Xbox Games Store – 5/23/18 [Major Nelson]

Gorogoa
Gorogoa is an elegant evolution of the puzzle genre, told through a beautifully hand-drawn story designed and illustrated by Jason Roberts.

I Hate Running Backwards
I Hate Running Backwards is a never-ending adrenaline packed shoot’em down roguelite that puts the emphasis on destruction and fighting never ending waves of enemies while time traveling through procedurally generated, fully destructible worlds!

Get stronger by earning perks to decimate challenging bosses along the way.

State of Decay 2 (Xbox Play Anywhere)
State of Decay 2 is the ultimate zombie survival game in an open world where you and up to three friends build a community of survivors. It’s up to you to establish a base, develop your characters’ abilities, and manage resources to survive as a group in a world where choices matter and every decision has lasting consequences.

Disco Dodgeball: Remix
Disco Dodgeball: Remix is a ridiculous physics-based futuresport combining robots, one-hit-kill projectile combat and crazy dodgeball action.

Play a wide variety of classic and expert game modes in singleplayer, local multiplayer, or online multilpayer matches.
