Blowfish Studios (@blowfishstudios) and Drakkar Dev (@drakkardev) have announced that their hack n slash shooter platformer sci-fi action game 'Blackwind' will release on January 20th.

Blackwind is a top-down sci-fi action game that puts you in the shoes of a teenager trapped inside a prototype battle armor suit during an alien invasion. Face off against enemies, cut through their ranks, and fight back in a last-ditch attempt to stop a planetary invasion. When the starship Pandora is shot down, James Hawkins finds himself trapped inside a military prototype Battle Frame armor as he hurtles towards Medusa-42. As the Raknos hordes ravage the planet and leave every human mining colony in ruins, James doesn’t have long to discover how to operate the Battle Frame if he wants to survive his dangerous surroundings and find his missing father.

The game is available to pre-order for Xbox One and Xbox Series XS via Microsoft Store right now for $24.99. You can pre-download Blackwind on Xbox today, but it will not be playable until the official release date/time (check the Xbox Store for release date/time in your region).

Blackwind will be available on PC, Mac and Consoles on Jan 20! Physical versions lock-on to retail shelves courtesy of Perp Games on Friday Jan. 21, 2022 in Euro-pean regions with North American copies arriving at a later date.
