Puzzles and dungeons in a vast and colorful world

Xel follows Reid, an amnesiac heroine who is shipwrecked on an intriguing planet with no memories of her former existence. Players will join Reid as she sets out to solve the mystery of this strange country riddled with secrets, mysteries, and a shaky sense of time.

Explore a gorgeous overworld studded with tough dungeons in a rich, vibrant palette in a classic, top-down, 3D action-adventure style. Tiny Roar’s game will teach you how to use a range of strikes and combinations while evading and parrying to tackle and defeat your opponents.

Master and upgrade your weapons, shield, and gadgets to annihilate your enemies and gain special powers that allow Reid to bend the constraints of space and time, allowing her access to previously inaccessible locations and new methods to kill challenging adversaries.

Xel will be released in the second quarter of 2022 for Nintendo Switch, Xbox Series X, PlayStation 5, and PC through Steam.
