And looks great while doing it
At gamescom this year, I found out that Ori and the Blind Forest isn’t just a drop-dead gorgeous game; it’s also quite the challenging, tight-controlling platformer. In less than two months, everyone can stop taking my word for it, and form their own first-hand impressions.
Moon Studios revealed this morning that Ori and the Blind Forest is set for an Xbox One and Steam release on March 11. In the U.S., both versions will run $19.99. An Xbox 360 release is supposedly still in the works, but nothing was mentioned about it.
The news came accompanied by a gameplay video of a previously unshown part of the game which features Ori‘s gravity-warping mechanics. Better pray that there’s a nice, cushy block to break your horizontal fall instead of some uninviting spikes.
