A surprising and refreshing souls-like has just been announced on Xbox Series. It’s very promising and above all… very wet. In any case, there is an idea.
Take Dark Souls or Elden Ring. Finally no, rather take the recipe of these two games, namely demanding fights, beefy bosses, a slightly high difficulty, equipment galore, etc. Then add a colourful, crazy and totally WTF universe, then throw it all to the bottom of the ocean. Congratulations, you have just created a video game that makes you smile and looks more than promising.
Another Crab’s Treasure, the souls-like releases the pliers on Xbox Series!
This game is Another Crab’s Treasuredeveloped by the little hands of the independent studio Aggro Crab, to whom we owe the already very good Going Under, a rogue-like that openly makes fun of start-ups and big companies.
We forget for two seconds the endless hours, the crunch, the toxic atmospheres and the casual bosses, and we dive into the big bath, the ocean. Another Crab’s Treasure puts us in the shell of a Hermit Crab who fights pollution at the bottom of the ocean, but also other ultra angry crustaceans.
As once again unveiled during the last Xbox show of this Summer Game Fest 2023, the game comes in the form of a demanding and caustic souls-like. We swap heroic fantasy for an episode of Spongebob and armor by anything at the bottom of the water, and we’re good. Our good old Hermit Crab can (should) indeed change his house like his shirt to take advantage of protection and different effects. Similarly, it is by rummaging the sand in search of rubbish that we will equip ourselves with weapons to fight our adversaries. A proposal that makes you smile and is even good to see. It remains to be seen what it will give once the controller is in your hands.
Another Crab’s Treasure is expected on PC, Switch and Xbox Series therefore, but the game still does not have a release date. We only know that it will land in the Xbox Game Pass as soon as it is released. We will therefore still have to wait a little bit, in the meantime, we ask you here a little gameplay.
