Microsoft is still keeping us in the dark (at the time of writing) about what's coming to Xbox Game Pass in September 2022 for the most part, but we know for a fact that Moonscars is ready to go ahead of its release on September 27th.
That's because the dark metroidvania officially went gold last week, meaning the base game is finished:
The game has been drumming up quite a bit of attention in recent weeks, described as featuring an "unforgiving nonlinear 2D world" where you'll "face off against the relentless darkness that seeks to destroy you". Sounds cool to us!
You can check out some fresh new gameplay of Moonscars above, along with some screens below:
Push the limits of your combat skills, and master new abilities to progress through an unforgiving nonlinear 2D world. Face off against the relentless darkness that seeks to destroy you. In Moonscars, every death is a lesson learnt—and as you overcome each challenge, new truths will be revealed.
Looking forward to Moonscars on Xbox Game Pass? Let us know down in the comments below.

What is a ‘2D nonlinear world’? Procedurally generated levels? Scrolling up and down? It’s a metroidvania…so it seems odd to point out it’s ‘nonlinear’…as the nature of metroidvanias have you backtrack and open previously closed areas anyway 🤷🏻
Will give this a go…can’t say it looks any different from most of the games of this type that have flooded the market. I watch the video and feel like I already have the game gathering dust alongside my switch.
Playing HAAK on switch right now and loving it (nobody is talking about this game, shame). So this will be my next metroidvania style game. I hope the difficulty won’t turn me off though. It will all depend on the reponsiveness of the control like it often is in these games.
Hey this looks good, it's like a mix of blasphemous and legacy of kain 😃
