Below Gameplay Trailer Surfaces Teases Immense Boss Fights

"Below is an adventure game viewed from a top down perspective. You are a tiny warrior exploring the depths of a remote island. The game is about exploration, though that goal is contingent upon the character's survival in a world where there is brutal combat and permanent death."

If I was excited for the release of Below, I am now even more excited-er(I realize that is not, in fact a word). At first I didn't quite understand why the game featured the main character being so small, but seeing the gameplay I see now how it works. Zooming so far out allows more scenery on the screen as well as gives the designers the ability to make for some HUGE boss fights. That and... Read All

Below Is Now Coming to Steam

Like many I have been enjoying the trailers for Capybara Games, Below. Featuring a really moody art style as well as the music of Jim Guthrie, what's not to love? How about it only being released on XBox? Originally, it was, but it seems Capybara Games have remedied that and dropped the hint in their latest trailer.

Will Below come out on the Steam Machines too? Not entirely sure but Below will come out on "Steam on XBox One" some time this year.

Below & Super Time Force Will Be Ported!

"However, because of the way the game was announced & discussed in the press, there was naturally a little bit of confusion after the dust settled. And that confusion stuck around. So, to clear things up, we wanted to take a quick second and answer your number one question:

Like many games on stage at E3, Below will be available on the Xbox One first. Then, after a period of time, CAPY can bring it elsewhere. It’s always been this way."

I am happy to see Capy make this clarification about how they publish games. You never know what publishers plan on doing with a game, so its great to hear that Capy will follow the same plan for Below and Super Time Force they did... Read All

Below: The Next Collab -w Capybara & Jim Guthrie

Explore, survive and discover are some of the only words that are featured on the new site for Below, the upcoming collaboration between Capybara Games and Jim Guthrie. The released video looks very cool and seems to evoke a rogue-like element featuring the Capy style fused with Jim Guthrie's amazing music.

One point of note is the site mentions XBox One as the only platform listed. I hope, as with Sword & Sworcery this game will make it to PC and Phones/Tablets. Whereas I would cringe somewhat if this were a XBox One exclusive hopefully it would be ported to PC and other stuff later. That said, the game looks great and I am looking forward to more information as... Read All

Looks like it's actually published by Microsoft Studios. Might not stray too far from the XBone anytime soon, if ever. Sad. This looks to be an amazing adventure.

Sword & Sworcery was eventually ported to PC, Mac, Linux an Android. If/when the exclusivity ends then maybe?

Maybe! It took a year for Limbo to make it to other systems, so who knows ;)

True. I can wait, just as long as it comes at some point.

Being that I have a ton of games in my backlog, waiting is something I have in spades :D

If MS Studios has the publishing rights, I doubt it will make it to PS4. It might come to PC, Microsoft has been pretty good about that in the past, but it would be unheard of if it came to PS4.

That all depends on the publishing rights, though. It's possible MS were a good bunch o' lads and only have MS publishing rights, but I doubt it.
