It’s Wednesday, so it’s time for another look at what’s new on the Xbox Games Store.
Nidhogg II, Messhof’s side-scrolling swordfighter, makes its way to the Xbox One about a year after its PC and PS4 debut. You’ll also be able to take up swords in Adventure Time: Pirates of the Enchiridion, the latest game adaptation (and second for the Xbox One) of the popular animated series.
A little gunplay is also on the way in this week’s Xbox Games Store update, as Mothergunship, a first person shooter mixed with “bullet-hell intensity,” and Tempest 4000, a “tube shooter” created by Jeff Minter, are also now available to download for the Xbox One.
You can learn more about the rest of this week’s additions to the Xbox Games Store after the break.
