Pixelated Roguelike ScourgeBringer Is Now On Game Pass For PC And Xbox One

This year has seen some great roguelikes, including Supergiant Games' popular Hades, Spelunky 2, and Bloodroots. And another one, ScourgeBringer, is now available on Game Pass.

ScourgeBringer, developed by NeuroVoider creators Flying Oak Games, is a fast-paced free-moving roguelike platformer that's sort of like a crossover between Celeste and Dead Cells. You play as Kyhra, the deadliest warrior of her clan, as you battle tough enemies and even tougher bosses to uncover the truth of what sent the world into the post-apocalypse. ScourgeBringer is available on PC and Xbox One. It can also be played on Xbox Series S/X when the next-gen consoles launch on November 10 for $300 and $500, respectively.

For those who would rather own the game outright, ScourgeBringer is available to purchase for $17 USD on the Microsoft and Steam stores. The game is currently on sale on Steam for $14.44 until October 28. Check out the PC system requirements for ScourgeBringer below.

ScourgeBringer has been in early access for a while, most recently appearing in a Summer Game Fest demo event that featured over 70 verticle slices of upcoming Xbox titles. We included ScourgeBringer in a list of Summer Game Fest titles that left us excited. Associate editor Jordan Ramèe said he "loved it a lot" and admired its "hard but fair gameplay loop."

ScourgeBringer isn't the only game to join Xbox Game Pass this week. The company confirmed that a bevy of titles, including the trippy platformer Katana Zero and isometric RPG The Swords of Ditto, will make their way to Xbox Game Pass throughout the week.

But as some games enter, others leave. A handful of titles will be leaving the subscription service this month, such as Afterparty, Metro 2033 Redux, Saints Row IV Re-Elected, and Tacoma. Check below for a full list of games entering and leaving the Game Pass vault this month.
