Immortals Fenyx Rising has arrived on Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One, and players can now plunge headlong into the Golden Isle and its many compelling mysteries. As Fenyx, a completely customizable shield-bearer on a quest to save the Greek gods from the monstrous titan Typhon, you’ll unlock godly powers and abilities to become an unstoppable winged hero straight out of myth.
Immortals Fenyx Rising blends the gameplay sensibilities of classic 3D platformers with Ubisoft’s flair for open-world design, inviting players to leap, glide, climb, ride, and battle through seven distinctive regions inspired by different Greek gods. Combat is fast and frequently aerial, as you smack Gorgons and ghost soldiers into the air, whirl into rapid sword-and-axe combos, and unleash divine attacks like the massive Hephaistos’s Hammer summon and the spiky Ares’s Wrath thrust.
Those powers are especially handy when you’re (frequently) pitted against gigantic enemies like Cyclopsi and multi-armed Hekatonchires, who can smash you with boulders and trees grabbed from the surrounding landscape. They’re also essential when you’re facing down the corrupted Wraiths of Herakles, Odysseus, Atalanta, and Achilles, who will show up periodically to hunt you down unless you can find their lairs and defeat them on their home turf.
When you’re not fighting monsters, you don’t have to go very far in any direction to find something fun to do. In addition to the story quests the gods themselves will set you on, you’ll also find plenty of bite-sized challenges that range from hidden chests to the Vaults of Tartaros, a series of ethereal crypts filled with distinctive (and often lethal) environmental puzzles. Everything you accomplish feeds back into Fenyx’s heroic ascension, yielding new weapons, armor, or resources you can use to unlock new abilities, improve your gear, upgrade your health and stamina.
On Xbox Series X|S, you’ll be able to experience the adventure with blazing-fast SSD performance, minimizing the time it takes to fast-travel or load saves. You’ll also be able to prioritize performance or quality, ensuring high framerates or maximum detail at up to 4K resolution (on Xbox Series X) and 60 frames per second, depending on your preference. Players who purchase Immortals Fenyx Rising on Xbox One will also be able to upgrade to the Xbox Series X|S version at no additional cost thanks to Smart Delivery, and cross-platform progression ensures players can easily transfer saves between systems.
Immortals Fenyx Rising is out now, so strap on those sandals, grab your favorite pair of wings, and get ready to ruin some monster’s day.
